Three Word Thursday #53

It is that time of the week. One I look forward to a great deal. And by the way Quilly, mahalo for hosting Three Word Thursday. It’s a blast and I can’t tell you how much I enjoy it. Each week Quilly at Quintessentially Quilly gives us three words to compose a story. You can get further instructions here or you can click the picture above.

This week’s words are:

delenda, n. things to be erased or blotted out
imbroglio, n. an intricate and perplexing state of affairs; a complicated or difficult situation
tantivy, adj. swift, rapid

OLD vs. NEW

Floating around in his head were many delenda from his past. They were so engrained that it was driving him nuts and he was having a hard time thinking of just where to begin. It was an imbroglio so he just decided to dive in and start. With tantivy thinking he began and everything seemed to begin to unlock and new things were entering his head. He knew he would conquer going from a PC to a MAC.

Have a great Three Word Thursday

Hey, it’s only my opinion.

    Great job at putting together that story on those three words. Here I thought I had a pretty good vocabulary. I’ve never heard of any of these words. Thanks! I love learning new words. Now the trick is to remember them!

  12. Oh, this was classic you! I loved it. It could have been so many things and then boom, hello reality.

    My daughter is a Mac devotee, as are two of my good friends — and their advantages only keep increasing over the PCs. It’s coming to us all, I suppose.
