Administrivia: Removing WOTD

I've decided the word-of-the-day has to go. If more than one friend ever decide to read this, it will just be in the way. Noise.

It's not completely gone, though. I think I still need the exercise. The existing entries have been copied to a new blog (http://bwotd.blogspot.com/) and I'll pick up further entries there.

word: immure

So there she was, immured in her cubicle with someone she didn't understand, but who had authority over her. How could she escape? Why did she feel the need to escape? Where would she go?

word: fey

What was it about Dan that bothered her? He was a pretty tough boss, but fair. Forthright. Happily married, which meant he didn't hit on her. But sometimes she detected something a little off, like he was from a different time or place. Her grandmother might have said he was fey.

word: pernicious

The impulse to flee was pernicious. It was undermining every effort to be productive. Of course, that's when her boss, Dan, dropped by her desk.

wotd: exigency

The exigency of putting on a productive face and getting something done for the company was soon overwhelmed by the nagging feeling that she shouldn't really be here. She needed to be with Nathaniel.

wotd: stolid

She decided to isolated herself in her work and ignore her emotions, becoming that stolid, hard-working employee that her boss appreciated. But that only worked for a about twenty minutes.

wotd: querulous

Megan was trying to keep herself in a good mood that day. But it was difficult, given that her coworkers were a tribe of querulous louts with nary a positive thing to say about anything. Her self doubts began feeding off of their negative energy.
