Since I am so fond of words and their history, I really liked this post on Like Merchant Ships. It's almost enough to prod me into making "serendipitous" a part of my regular vocabulary!
Hey, that's my word! I've loved "serendipitous" for many years--ever since I first found out what it meant. (I think watching a cartoon about a dragon named Serendipity inspired me to seek out its definition.) Hehe, there you go again, trying to steal my already beloved words just because you happen upon them so... serendipitously.
