Peripheral

Because it has the prettiest sound I’ve ever heard, and it can be used so many ways.

Sassy

I am very fond of the “s” sound and this word exhibits that in all its glory. I can’t help but move my body when I say it. Its also a great way of calling someone rude without offending them.

Skyscraper

Those magnificent steel and glass creations that seemingly kiss the sky. I’ve always liked the word even as a kid, probably because of the awe they inspired. It’s still a thrill to stand at the base of one and look straight up. Awesome!

satisfaction

It reminds me of the song Rollings Stones sang back in the 60′s. Plus the group The Talking Heads. Their rendition of the Rolling Stones song is invigorating and satisfying, no pun intended. I have been to quite a few Rolling Stones concert. Each one of them were awesome. I had a blast. I would love to see the Rolling Stones again in the near future, no matter the cost of a ticket.

Online

I am an online addict. But this word has a deeper meaning to me. To my the word “online” symbolizes how my husband and I met twelve years ago. We met on an internet dating website. We have been together for twelve years, and married for ten and a half yrs. We have two wonderful sons. My life would not be the same without the Online experience.

Yesterday

Yesterday is gone! I can never go back to it!
It has the word yes in it, which means Yes I can!
It also has the word day in it, which means that if I stay into Today, I don’t have to stress about Tomorrow!

Twitterpated

Learned from the Disney film, Bambi, it means the feeling of being completely enamored with someone or something…
I love that there is such a fun word for a feeling that is also so fun and unexplainable.
And everyone loves watching animated deer fall in love, right?

meaning-to use excess of words.
I like the word because it signifies conversation. And i like to listen to someone who can tell a good story. I can always learn something by listening.
