Driving Coworkers Insane

By Morrisa Sherman

"The delivery guy hasn't shown up yet?"

"Well, not yet, but have faith. He'll be here."

"How do you you know? It's two o'clock already!"

"Well, he definitely comes every day, it's just that his rounds lean more toward the quotidian than the diurnal."

"Ah. Um, what's the difference?"

"Why, one is equivocal and the other is punctiliar, of course."

"Oh. Of course."

"Quotidian, Quotidian, have you met Quotidian, Quotidian the Ta-atoo'd lady..."

"Morrisa?"

"Yes?"

"Shut up."

"Propinquantly!"

Strife hinders Roman lamas.
