These are great. There are many things about the letter U I never really thought about before– especially the word undulate!
Thanks for visiting my TT and for your comment as well:)
I had never heard of an “undine”… fascinating indeed. I also grew up in the pre-cable era and loved some of the UHF channels that we were able to get. There were 3 that really stick out in my mind, channels 20, 50, and 62. Although they were all based in the Detroit area, residents in Flint (my hometown) could still get them. These channels had an excellent mix of reruns, old movies, cartoons, and local programming.
I also didn’t take cable TV although in Belgium it existed since the 60th and was layed in the ground together with electricity and telephone cable. You only had to pay for the connection. I had to take it because when my son was in primary school they talked about TV broadcasts and he was the only one who hadn’t seen it ! So we asked for the connection. BTW little Belgium is the most TV cabled country in the world.
I don’t believe in UFOs but I do look up and wonder. Out there in the untold trillions of star systems there almost has to be life, but it’s so far away that we might as well be alone.
BTW I loved your site look and feel!!
I loved your Unique list…I have this fetish for umbrellas…and believe it or not these days me and my umbrella are inseperables :D
About the denim and getting caught in it after its wet….Oh dont even remind me of that :(
:D The undie thing…even me match it with my dress and wear :D
Thanks for the info on the word undulating…
Happy TT
Ah, the requisite unicorn phase, I remember it well.
I must say I never thought I’d see unicorns, undines and umbra all in the same post somewhere.
Niftily done. :)

I remember UHF channels. And, I love different umbrellas, too.
And, just in case you’re wondering, I think you’re pretty unique!!
Thanks for visiting my TT!
I’m with you on #13 :-)
Did you know the word underground is the only word in the English language which begins and ends with und?
Thought you might find that interesting :)
What an excellent and articulate TT! “ubiquitous? Umbra, Undine, onomatopoeia”?!!! Yay you!!! You win first place in my internal “Best vocabulary Contest”!!! Charming and well written! Thanks for visiting my TT, and I do hope you’ll come back; I’ll definitely be visiting you often!
I’m amazed! Sadly, I’m not sure I know 13 words that begin with u…I can’t wait to see what you come up with for Z (or Y for that matter) :-)
I actually learned a few things, I had never hear of the undine before!
I went through the unicorn thing too, but I was actually in college when it hit me. I liked the really cool, fantasy figurines.
U are so creative umbra is very new to me
A very interesting list. I especially like #13. Happy TT!
Thanks for reminding me of “Ulalume”—it’s been years since I’ve read or thought of that poem. this is one of the best “alphabet lists” EVER.
Uni ~ sea urchin ~ a sushi specialty not for the faint of heart.
I am so with you on all 13. I had not read or seen the Poe poem in such a long time and forgot how much I loved it. I am going to pull out my Poe collection and reread them all.
There is a “special” at my school named Unique. She tags with the moniker “Uneek.”
Happy TT!
The word ‘unique’ is one I get to use every day to describe myself.
‘Umbra,’ lovely thought…often what lies unseen in the shadows adds richness to the entire experience.
I remember when I was the remote control. ‘Hey kid, change the channel.’ or ‘Hey kid, you’re a better door than a window.’ or ‘Hey kid, move those antennae.’ Oh yeah, the days of UHF.
Fun list today! And um, yeah the undies thing… me too.
There was a kid who rode a unicycle to high school every day. Happy TT.
Those are great words for “U”. I like the sound of the word ‘umber’ too.
Thanks for visiting.
Ok so it’s your mother speaking…and that fancy underwear beter be clean!
I love this …you are unique.
