I'm at work,...can't stay online too long or will get in trouble.
New words are

exegetical.
Please see last week's Thesaurus Thursday post for "the scoop" if you're not familiar with our game.
Sorry so brief, I'll be back on Saturday for Winners and chitchat.

Um, I know both of them this week, MM.
Surfeit - An excess of something.
Exegetical - Detailed, word for word study or explanation of something, as in to study the Bible exegetically.
Hmmm, I think, since forfeit is to give up something, that surfeit is to gain something, or to have extra of something, as in surplus.
No clue for the other one.
Being that Diane is such a Smarty Pants and knows both words, I guess I'll have to give at least one of them a silly definition!
Surfeit - slang used by surfers along the California coast when speaking to each other as in - "That's a gnarly wave, dudes, let's surfeit!"
i'm pretty sure surfeit is like eating too much.
hope work's going well for you.
my brain's too tired to try the words, just don't get in trouble at your new job!! hee hee.
ps. Brother has the flu...yechl.
