I brought my huge Thesaurus into work today (so big that there's no page numbers: nobody wants to count them).
It's been a rather verbose, circumlocutory, diffuse, garrulous, periphrastic, pleonastic, tautological or (as some might say) wordy day. It's left me quite befogged.
I think this email exchange represents today rather well:
Emma:
Hey Mark,
Hot and spicy evidence attached! I also have the required material to celebrate Penguin day on Sunday – I will bring to coffee!!
Mark:
Thanks, ta, cheers, ingratiations, gratituities…
Emma:
Remorsefully, I intended to utter:
Ciao Mark,
Blistering and fiery verification fastened! In addition I boast the obligatory objects to rejoice Penguin day on Sunday – I shall resolve to transport them to coffee!
Time to bend the elbow for a hop juice, swipes, wallop, carouse, hit the bottle, revel, tipple, wassail, quaff a snifter...
