“I’m not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.” — Louisa May Alcott

Ragan.com frequently comes out with a list of little-known words that always make me laugh. Hope to add a few of these to my daily vocab:

Hypergraphia: a compulsion to write, sometimes uncontrollably. 

She was disappointed that her hypergraphia did not yield anything worthy of being published. 

Avuncular: having to do with an uncle; characteristic of an uncle. 

His avuncular tone undercut the value of his valuable advice. 

Aglet: the plastic or metal tube on the end of a shoelace. 

Those laces have lost their aglets; throw them in the trash. 

Defenestrate: to throw out the window. 

I am ready to defenestrate this worthless manuscript. 

Callipygian: having well-shaped buttocks 

The gym is full of people on a callipygian quest. 

Nullibiety: the state of being nowhere. 

After 12 years, Jack had reached nullibiety on his career path. 

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."

--- C.S. Lewis
