Day 13: Thurnumbus

     Printed BP blouse, purple cami, capris, jeweled sandals.
     I had a HORRIBLE weekend.
     But thats in the past.  I like to think of Mondays as the recovery of the weekend and the fresh start to the week.  We all know that by Tuesday, we just give up.  So I make the best out of Mondays.
     A new theme is what I like to consider my recovery for the weekend and my fresh start to the new week.  Hopefully, this week will be an easier theme for everyone to figure out.
     I discovered something on this lovely Monday that shocked me, but I have to begin by defining this word,:
     "Thurnumbus" (thur-numb-bus) : a huge amount of enthusiasm for something.
     I love to use an expanded vocabulary, as many of you may know.  So one of my words that I use literally on a daily basis, sometimes a couple times, is not actually a word.  My little sisters friend introduced me to this word a couple months ago.  I loved it and knew I had to make it a part of my lingo.  Ive been walking around thinking Im all smart by using thsi word as much as possible, and when people ask me what "thurnumbus" means, I act all wiser and im like "How could you not know what it means?!", as if its common knowledge.  TURNS OUT, my sisters friend LIED to me.  Its not a word at all.  She made it up.
     So, in order to gain back some of my vocab integrity, I vote that everyone tries to use "thurnumbus" at least once throughout the day.  Because seriously, its a good word.  I think it would make a great addition to Websters dictionary.  Ill write them a letter.  If you use the word "thurnumbus" in front of me any time this week, I will give you a hug.  A huge bear hug.  What more could you ask for?
