Definition #3 is my personal favorite. Yes, I'm completely exhausticated. Sometimes this is worse than migraine mumbles and I do
SomeMonkey (after reading something sad I sent her): oh man. that's awfulAfter traveling to see family and attend a reunion, I came home last Monday, did laundry, packed Joe's bags and sent him off before 5am the next morning for
me: yeah :)
me: omg worst typo EVER
SomeMonkey: snort
me: i meant :(
At least my typo was good for something:
SomeMonkey: well, it kept me from crying, so i vote it best typo everThat's what a good friend does - takes your foot out of your mouth for you and laughs at it. Or something.
me: i WIN!
Anyways, there's been far too much exhaustication lately, which is why posts have been sparse. I need a week-long nap.
P.S. Just so you know, exhaustication isn't actually in the dictionary but I was determined to create a correct pronunciation guide. For when, you know, the masses want to use my word. How did I manage this amazing feat, you may ask? I combined pronunciations of two words. Exhaust and fornicate. Yeah. SomeMonkey assures me that this is the good kind of exhaustication so I guess it all works out.

Thank you and SomeMonkey for getting me to think about exhausting fornication on a Monday morning. :)
i like this word.
i shall use it now in a sentence:
"children, mommy is too exhausticated to do ANYTHING for you other than provide microwave service...i suggest you utilize the rainy nights to launder your clothes."
awesome.
hey cate, i love your new word and will definitelyb be using it too. somehow exhaustijossed just doesn't have the same ring. i missed my 6 word saturday as my granddaughter is visiting. and i am completely exhausticated!
I am certainly hiding this new word from Ole Boy...for various reasons.
Hmm... Interesting.
Moving swiftly away from the origin of the word... Sorry to hear you're having such a rough time. I hope things get better, and that you get the week long nap (wouldn't mind one of those myself).
I love this new word!!
Don't you wish that all life around you would just be put on hold for 5 days so you can catch up on things and SLEEP and read and have a long bath and take a stroll and eat lots of ice cream and cry during a girl movie?
Me too.
