Doctor Dictionary is spying on me. He is in my head and he knows exactly how I'm feeling on most days. He emails me daily with a word, a description and it tends to match my mood.
In reverse order. Not all recent days applicable (we do have Sundays in Kelly Land, however no particular leitmotif was visible):
Today:Fulminate. Sitting near a variety of imbeciles who push my buttons in an aggravating manner. Attempts to laugh it off with colleagues via Messenger are futile due to level of caffeine in system.
Yesterday:Quiescent. Oh how I tried to be fun at the BBQ. Even silly dancing and beer couldn't hide the lack of brain activity and need for sleep.
Saturday:Sanctum. Get up at 4.30pm. Do not make it to London. Sit in the hovel like room, air saturated with yesterday's alcohol. I am not disturbed. Happy.
Friday:Palliate. Explanations and excuses to friends and family in a bid to ease their worries caused by recent behaviours.
Thursday:Epicene. He cried on the sofa. He put his arms around me. Helpless. That was the last time I saw him.
Wednesday:Lumpen. I will not sink to his kind of behaviour, tone or language. What's felt is felt, done is done.
Tuesday:Incipient. "Beginning to come into being"
Monday:Perfunctory. Pertaining to general attitude surrounding my relationship.
I am struggling to choose a particular favourite, but waver between 'fulminate' and 'lumpen'. The two could well be neighbours in my head.
Cars... Drivers... Really... While I am aware of the obvious physical advantage a large hunk of moving metal has over a mere human the last time I checked the mode of transport known as legs came first. I believe this commands a level of respect that I just don't see. If a car stops to let another turn and I don't cross the road to do the same thing thanks are due to both, no? Obviously not. Also, apparently it doesn't matter when you spray a pedestrian with your nasty windscreen water.
I am selling some of my much loved items on eBay as it appears that I am a bit broke. Boys things, girls things, ties, dresses, briefcase etc. Have a look.
I use perfunctory a lot...
Are you up for bit on ebay?...
XOOXXO
I'm partical to incipient.
Also I don't think I ever told you, you look adorable in your old lady dresses!
