It's a cool word, but not quite as cool in practice.

I learned the word "mordant" this morning. I need to use it in a sentence this week.

I'm sorry about the conjuctivitis. Maybe Sara has a cool word with properties to counteract it.

I had to look mordant up just now, because I'm only familiar with "mordent," a type of musical ornamentation.

But for cool words, I like the irony inherent in the word "sequipedalian."

I'm sure she would if she weren't out flat with the flu. Poor girl.

And my poor, sweet Sophie who has taken Tom's aversion to eye drops. *giggle*

Ugh... I had conjunctivitis last spring. Really sucked! [Frown]

But then I got better. [Smile]

Conjunctivitis does indeed suck. But the eyedrops make it better quickly.

Don't shake hands with Tom.

To the tune of "Conjunction Junction, What's Your Function."

"Conjunctivitis Bite Us, I hope your alright-yes?
Pink in your eye, and nose, and cheeks-es
Conjunctivitis Bite Us, How's your feeling
Crusty Eye Lids, not Toilet kneeling"
