fugacious:

1. fleeting; transitory.
2. Botany. falling or fading early.


how to use in causal conversation:

"it was an intense but ultimately fugacious romance"
"you call yourself a gardener? your begonias are fugacious and your lilies are flaccid."

not to be confused with:

fungalicious

how it makes me feel:

i actually like this one. i actually kind of like it a lot. it's weird. i didn't really have high expectations for the day. it's kind of grey here in seattle and it's getting to the point where the sun doesn't bother coming around until 8 or 8:30 if you're lucky and after seeing what MW was offering i thought the cosmos might just somehow be aligned to make today a fairly mediocre experience where nothing really goes wrong but nothing really goes right either. one of those cosmically neutral days where you neither generate positive or negative karma, leisurely riding a soft gentle stream of middling tolerability (yes i'm making up words). in other words it felt like a monday. luckily that feeling was fugacious.

  1. I'm glad to see you're back, it was horrible to hear what had happened to you. I really hope you're feeling better, and that whoever did that has been caught.

    Anyway, it's nice to see you continuing and that you're sense of humor is still rampant. I'm looking forward to more!
