One of my co-workers developed an affinity for the word "evangelism" in the past 24 hours, and it became fodder for office conversation. Clearly this seemed like a relevant time to share my favorite word. Sesquipedalian. It's quite apropos; feel free to look up the definition and you'll see why.
Then it also seemed relevant to share my word find of the week, thanks to Catch-22: avuncular. There are very few occasions that I would have a purpose for this word, but I'm determined to find at least one. Although, no one will be likely to follow my train of thought since it's not exactly one the 1,000 most used words in the English language.
After a morning of word nerding, it was time to dig into Excel. Granted, I've been seeking new formulas for stats analysis over the past four weeks. Today just happened to be filled with "vlookup", pivot tables and "concatenate" formulas. There's also an "isna" formula that's become my close friend. I can't help it, Excel formulas are like my own nerdy form of digital magic.I love and embrace my nerdiness; it probably makes sense that I end up working in tech start-up environments.
