A conversation at work with the guy in the cubicle next to mine….
KJ: (audible sigh)
Marque: Oh Katherine, what’s the matter?
KJ: Huh? Oh nothing—I’m just slogging my way through the thesaurus, that’s all.
Marque: What? Slugging your way through the thesaurus?
KJ: Yeah. Only, slogging.
Marque: What’s slogging?
KJ: Well, I can tell you!
KJ: Hold on…
KJ: Here we go…
KJ: Slog:
KJ: Bear down
KJ: Buckle down
KJ: Drag
KJ: Drudge
KJ: Flounder
KJ: Grind
KJ: Labor
Marque: …
KJ: See what I did there?
Marque: Yep.
KJ: I looked it up in the thesaurus!
Marque: (audible sigh)
