Today's Word: Footle

Footle is a noun that may best describe what you are doing RIGHT NOW but most certainly doesn't define what *I* am doing!

People who are accused of footling are guilty of the crime of flitting their day away! To footle is to make a poor use of your time, talking about nothing, accomplishing nothing, escaping from the everyday. Footling has a carefree connotation, probably because it has its roots in a dirty French word.

Wake up! Quit your footling!

It's an easy one today, just to get things started.

OK! Things are starting to shape up around here!

Words are great!
