Today’s word of the day is…

Vacillate

Do you need a fancy word to inform your spouse, mother, mother-in-law, progeny, co-worker, friend or enemy that you can’t decide on something?

Maybe someone asked you: “Did you want pork chops tonight or Pasta or maybe you’d like to make something?” and you are like “…umm… umm…”, you can’t decide, even through you are awake, caffeinated and hungry.

Instead of uttering noises of indecision, you retort in a snobby voice: “I must apologize, I am vacillating between the choices,” followed by, “I cooked dinner recently (the wife intones “Like 5 months ago!”) you go ahead and decide.” Doing this puts all responsibility on the other person.

A word of advise: Please do not criticize or rebuke the tasteless pasta or acerbic meat, you did empower the person to make dinner: Gag it down!

Have a great day, but don’t vacillate too long between donut or danish, sugar is sugar!
