heard about this website on the radio.
for those of you that love messing with the english language, you've got to check this out.
http://www.unwords.com/. you can submit words that you know (or have made up), that aren't in the dictionary but should be. they go through a vetting process, and hopefully your word gets added to their dictionary ( it's more like a "fictionary"...hey maybe i should submit that!)
today's submission from yours truly is as follows:
mor-gasm (more-gasm)..the rush one feels when obtaining yet more highly desirable stuff.
i.e. " Suzie was so excited about getting another pair of Gucci sandals on sale, she practically
had a mor-gasm right there at Lord and Taylor".
"success consits of going from failure to failure, without loss of enthusiasm."

Brilliance on the new word! And great photo- update on site. Miss ya. Off to mountains for the weekend...taking Pea for her first getaway. Hoping it works
OK, here's one. Don't think it's original, but I love it:
Carpet-petuation: the act of running a sweeper over a piece of lint, yarn or smudge over and over again, until you finally have to pick the damn thing up with your hands and throw it away.
sick•tuation: a place in time you find yourself when you have a handy excuse to call in sick.
