this is the story of a girl

Okay, so I’m having this debate.

My friend says that I used the word “didactic” incorrectly, above.

Now, vocabulary tends to be one of my … errr … passions?  God, that sounds lame.  Whatever.  I just really like it, okay??

So when someone tells me I misused a word, I get EXTREMELY CONSTERNATED.  Did I indeed misuse a word?  The shame!  The humiliation! The ignominy!! (okay, I just looked that one up in the thesaurus)

Anyway, after blushing for a solid half hour over my gaffe, I looked it up again (see here).  Now I’m not entirely convinced I used it wrong, per se.

What do you think?

(I wish I had some sort of polling HTML I could plug in here …)

yeah..seems like the wrong use…
