No way! Not two days ago, I was making some silly comment in another's LJ, and I wanted to use a word that may-or-may-not-be-a-real-word (you know the type) meaning "having to do with dreams". Like "constabulatory" or "arboreal" (though arboreal is definitely a real word. Shut up.)

Anyway, through the great kung fu of Google, I found the word "oneiric", which I immediately declared the coolest word I had heard that day, but in the context I was wanting to use it, I didn't think the definition came across well enough, so I took the comment in a different direction.

Today's Dictionary.com Word of the Day: oneiric.

This reminds me of when I was taking an SAT prep course, and in an entire verbal section, the only word I didn't know was "hedonism." The next day, I was reading Pratchett's Sourcery, and Conina is trying to remember a word beginning with "h". Rincewind guesses "Hedonism?". I immediately cracked up, and all my fellow students--who I was trying to make a good impression on so I wouldn't be friendless, and who already thought I was lame and geekish because I used the word "extrapolate" in cold blood--just stared.

Mmm, "oneiric" and "hedonism". I think the world is telling me to luxuriate and enjoy myself and go back to sleep. Good idea, world.
