Day 7
Further cementing my status in this world as a nerd (to go along with the Biblical truth that I’m also an alien!), I recently enthusiastically printed off the 28 page vocabulary list (9 font, usually 2-3 columns of words per page) that I need to study for the Speech-Language Pathology Praxis Exam I’ll be taking several months from mow.
I began the painstaking process of finding the correct definitions of these words. And it’s (dare I say it) . . . fun. Not always. It can get tedious after several hours. But I get a kick out of quizzing myself as I shuffle through my SLP dictionary or utilize one of my favorite websites, dictionary.com. I relish the jargon’s solid feel in my mind and throat and mouth, and the fact each term is a reminder of some class I’ve taken in the past 5 years. I like the variety and scope of the words, which mirrors the variety and scope of my field.
So, now I’m off to tackle some more vocab. Yeehaw!
. . . but not too much:
Ecclesiastes 12:10 But beyond this, my son, be warned: the writing of many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body.

Try “ambo” on your computer. I just ran across that word a night or two ago. Grandpa Nerd
