A Word A Day
Today's word: ridicurous.
Definition: ridiculous.
As in: This is ridicurous. The HR person arranging my New York trip wants to buy me air tickets that are twice as expensive and with a connection (instead of direct flight), so as to avoid the New York city traffic... on a Sunday and on a Wednesday morning before 5am!

Side note: Of course, like other HR people, she sent me this email at midnight...
