What activities do you lose yourself in?

I think I have mentioned I love words! I always have. If I don’t know the word I have encountered, I am only too eager to gobble up the opportunity to acquire a new piece of word candy. Racing for a dictionary to find the new treasure, I carried a pocket-size Webster dictionary for years. And now I have eluded to my inner nerd! This morning, my discovery, word, and appreciation are for the word Apricate! Apricate; means to bask in the sunlight or expose to sunlight! Naturally, being a redhead, I avoid direct sunlight. It only takes 2.5 seconds for me to go from dayglow to burnt to a crisp, and that is with the SPF5000! But WORDS!! Take Efflorence, which means to reach a state of optimum development, to bloom! How freaking cool is that? Seriously! I love writing, getting lost in words, and finding ways to describe things with words! My happy place of freedom exists on a blank page that I get to fill with just “ahhhhh” WoRdS!
