Having been assured by numerous people that the Sewanee interview sounds just like me, I will shelve my heebie-jeebies and instead congratulate the interviewer for managing that feat.
By the way, when I asked my fourteen-year-old to choose which word in the dictionary he couldn't live without (one of the interview questions), he immediately said, "Aardvark." What's your snap decision?
probably "folderol."
ReplyDeleteIt's a good choice but maybe a bit limiting, unless you're thinking of pairing it with "aardvark."
ReplyDeleteMy dictionary opened to "ennui" but I choose "epithalamion."
ReplyDeleteOnce I tried to write a poem titled "Epithalamion," but it was bad.
