Return of Fancy Word of the Day

Last night I realized that I haven’t posted a new Fancy Word of the Day in ages. So, to celebrate the several fires around the Provo area that are making it literally rain ash, I present to you today’s word:

Tenebrous (n.) – obscure, dark, gloomy. This word comes from TENEBRAE in Latin, which means “shadows”.

Ex: The tenebrous sky was a harbinger of the impending apocalypse.

Note: The pronunciation of this word is TEH-neh-brus, not tuh-NEE-brus. You will now sound like you know what you're talking about when you use this word. You're welcome.

An Insight

Oh hey friends. So the other day I had an insight that I'd like to share with you.

I've been having a rough time lately with my blood sugar and weight gain and such, and I was feeling pretty angsty toward my body. I mean, shouldn't it just do what I want it to and not cause me so many problems? I was ready to never forgive my body, then I had a thought: Sometimes I don't treat my body that well. Case and point: last night's milkshake party. But you know what? He still forgives me. I just have to curl up in the fetal position for a few hours, but then he's like "Okay, we're good. Just don't do that to me again." And no matter how many times I am mean to him, he still forgives me. Maybe I should forgive him too, for the times when I get sick, or when I'm good about eating right and still somehow gain 4 lbs in a week... Yeah. So that was just a thought I had earlier today. That is all.
