Day 71 - Didactic

Didactic travel...that's what I need to start promoting, trips that educate!

Day 70 - Eructation

A loud eructation after a good meal may be a compliment in some cultures, but I'm still offended when someone belches without excusing themselves. This coming from a very loud belcher...

Day 69 - Temporize

It is difficult for me to understand where David is coming from as far as his job search goes. I think that if I were in his shoes I would be much more aggressive in looking for a job, sending out resumes left and right. But I am tying to temporize with his point of view, so that I don't always feel at complete odds with him.

Day 68 - Pablum

I know it's probably killing my brain cells, but when I travel I can't help but pick up a copy of People or US Magazine and filling my waiting time with the ridiculous pablum that those publications offer. I do usually also have something more substantial to read as well...but there's just something about being away from home that demands the perusal of those silly magazines!

Day 67 - Quixotic

I wish I could embark on more quixotic endeavors; I've always been jealous of those who can just pick up and go with only a moment's notice. I am such a creature of habit and always feel the need to have everything planned, and I worry sometimes that I'm missing out on life's adventures!

Day 66 - Supplicate

I often feel that I need to supplicate David in order to get him to put himself out there...and I hate putting myself in that situation. No one likes to beg, and humbling myself is not my strong suit.

Day 65 - Mulct

I set up a system in our house years ago, where I have imposed a mulct when Taylor leaves clothes turned inside out in the dirty laundry: 50 cents for every piece that I have turn right-side out!!
