Wonderful word!
Thanks, Judy. I also think it is wonderful and fun.
So much better than saying, “I have gas.”
Felt it countless times, never realizing it had a name! You are the Queen of wordsmiths.
Dearest Penelope, so lovely to hear from you. I hope you and your family are well. Glad you now know the name of your discomfort. When I read your movie reviews, also recognize that you are Queen Wordsmith!
