So I learned a word the other day. Let me pause here to congratulate myself….
Done. So that word is: miasma and it means “a highly unpleasant smell or odor.”
I will now use this new term of mine in a made-up conversation between a very intelligent couple with large, expansive vocabularies.
HUSBAND: Beloved, allow me the inestimable boon of another morsel and transfer me the salver of artichoke pizza.
WIFE: My sweet, my cogitation suggests you better defer. The miasma from last time is still lingering in our eiderdown.
There you have it. Be good people!
