How about torpor - this heat is sending me straight into a torpor.

| | Re: Word of Today | Quote: | |  | | | Do you make your own, MC? That does sound lovely for a day like today! | | | | | I can but I think the amount worth making would clog my studious brain, hahah. I need to stay focused. Lemon tarts here are great, not always tangy enough, but still a lovely treat. Imbue. I read Dan Ariely, he inspires. His last text was on "imbuing our other than 1st kisses with more meaning".
I don't think I have ever actually used that word in speaking. Let's insert that word a lot today in whatever is being said, and let's think about the other than 1st kisses.

To encourage a positive outlook for the day- ebullient
(also appropriate for the weather since it has a root in boiling and bubbling!) |

That' a great word.
I think mine for today will be sassy.
It is not a word I particularly like, Urban Dictionary refers to sassy as "possessing an ungodly amount of cool", which I think just translates to impolite but hot and tolerated, conceited. Not sure. I think I want to figure out.

Scorchio is a new one for me!
I think my word today is versatile. Great concept and it just glides off the tongue. |

Scorchio is one of those new words that pop up all the time these days that really annoys me!

My word for today is unfortunately "torrid"  I'm sure I will be very sick of the heat by the end of day.

Rain!!  We finally have a light, but steady rain coming down. Temp has cooled off nicely to 24 with a cool breeze.

This phrase crept up recently in a conversation, what an un-appealing mouthfeel it leaves after.
Let's fix it. Think of words. Languid is a good word. I just saw it in a magnetic poetry set and wondered how much it gets used. Unrushed. |

Are you alone at this literary party MusicChick?
I'll throw in "fenestron" because I deal with them daily and people keep on misspelling it or just don't have a clue.
Tough one to throw into an after dinner conversation mind you. Unless you're in a hangar.

I wasn't alone at a sky party, hahahah...but here it seems a bit dry. Thanks for the fenestron, I will go duely check since it sounds like nothing I know..fenestron, electron, metronom.
Aah, ok. Fan in fin? Nifty. I feel like that sometimes when I have too much to do. Tail.
