Today I learned about the word peculiar. The literal definitions are:
- Strange or odd, unusual
- Distinct from all others
I like the second definition, very much. Saying it {when it means definition 2} leaves a sweet sound in my ears and mouth. And I like the way it looks written, just, the way it sits in a sentence.
"You're a peculiar girl, Ellie."
"Thank you. I'm aware."

Love this, love you, love math bingo and Seth Cohen.
