I have received many comments about the word "occlusive" in my last post...my goodness, don't you people care about what REALLY matters (lip stuff and sunscreen and things like that)??!! Ha ha!
I looked it up, and here it is: to "occlude" means to prevent the passage of; to shut in or out. An "occlusion" is an occluding or being occluded. And "occlusive" is the adjective form of the noun. So I'm sticking with occlusive and I feel very happy with my decision.
Right now I like Webster's New World Dictionary!

when one end of the belt on my sweater coat falls into the toilet.

my thighs failed to provide an occlusive barrier for my poor sweater coat :( :( :(
Love occlusive! Did I mention that I just gave a 15 minute presentation on vocabulary instruction tonight?
