will someone please remind me why i have a job which requires that i fly to get there? oh wait, it's because it's a fantastic opportunity and i get to work on interesting things together with people who are motivated and who i really like to be around (all of which i really mean and am not trying to be sarcastic)...but still, i have to fly to get to it. commercial no less. and getting to the airport involves almost exactly an hour on a train from where i live. but that gave me plenty of time this morning to write a few more definitions for those verification words:
aquallar - that luminous, transparent turquoise blue of the sea off boracay.
subedi - pockets of no cellular service when the metro goes underground.
vemputis - an uncontrollable tendency to wear black or nearly-black nail polish.
terysol - a spray which should be used to freshen the air outside of office buildings where smokers gather now that smoking inside isn't allowed.
epoide - the portion of a t.v. program that's shown between commercials.
pedinges - the small splashes of nail polish that get on the cuticle by mistake and must be removed with a brush wetted with nail polish remover by the nice nail girl.
jibist - one who makes out as if they had no idea what their underlings were doing. example: ken lay was the very epitome of a jibist in the enron scandal.
i think i'm kind of on a roll here, but now i'm running out of words, so i'd better go comment on some blogs at collect some more.
i wish you all a wonderful thanksgiving. i'll be working tomorrow, since people on this side of the planet are curiously oblivious to the best holiday of all. i'm doing a turkey and all the fixins on friday tho', together with our very best friends. and for that, i am thankful.

Love this ... you're making me laugh right out loud with these creative descriptions. Loved the pedinges (nail polish splashes) one and the terysol - you're too funny.
totally hilarious...
LOVE vemputis - I suffer from this, on my toes...
and epoide is truly inspired, my one for this posting is caticana, which is the state I find myself when the epoide is so long that I'm busting to pee and wishing for a commercial break..
Great post...what a creative girl you are...love these definitions. I don't even have a favourite as they are all great.
Ok, but pedinges made me smile bigger.
;)
