prettygoodwordgrowlery (GROW-ler-ee) - n., a place to retreat to, alone, when in ill-humor.
Somewhere to growl, rather than someplace that makes or consumes growlers of beer. This seems to have been coined by Charles Dickens -- at any rate, the earliest quote given is generally from Bleak House (1853), though I'm not otherwise able to confirm this. Run today in honor of my work computer having it isn't necessary to display anything on a second monitor -- grrrrr.
Admin note: posting next week will be light due to other obligations during what is a holiday week in the States.
