Today I Made a Word
Remember when you were toilet training your kids and they were so proud when they did #2? At our house it was “making a bone.” If it was a particularly difficult movement (Brahms Concerto; B flat #8 Opus Moderadi) it was called “making a bad bone.”
It is with distinct pleasure that I announce: Today I made a word. With any luck, it will catch on and forever cement my place in the history of words. If you Google Latitudoodle, Google fails. It doesn’t even offer up a suggestion.
I have met the Google and it is mine.
Latitudoodle.
Google has released Latitude for Google Maps. If you have a GPS phone, you can activate it and find out if your parole officer is in the area, or your priest, or both, or they may be the same person. Father Dog the Bounty Hunter.
Latitudoodle: lat-ti-tu-tood-ul; v. the act of enabling your phone so you can be spotted. eg: “Latitudoodle me and we’ll do jello shots at Buster’s.”
/ing/ locating people in your contact list. eg: “Don’t bother me, I’m latitudoodling Cindy Lauper.”
/d/ the effect of being spotted by your hair stylist at Cost Cutters. eg: “Man, I just needed a trim and Mr. Sidney latitudoodled me.”
It has been a good day.

Hee! At our house we call it “building a log cabin” or “dropping off the Cosby Kids at the pool”. And we call our dog Pumperdoodles. Latitudoodles? Worth a shot, especially when he does it geographically, as he certainly can do.

Building a log cabin??? ahahahahaha.
If you outfit your Labradoodle with GPS you can Latitudoodle your Labradoodle.
