In the last two days, I've come up with two new words that describe very common behaviours. I make no claims that these are original, just that I thought of them and haven't seen them anywhere before. Anyone who wants to do exhaustive research (or a google search) feel free to try to prove me wrong. Here they are
backlog - (noun) When you dog hasn't, ahem, gone in at least a day, possibly owing to the fact that he's been eating pinecones again. When he finally, ahem, goes 3 or 4 times in one evening, he is simply clearing his backlog.
buy-curious - (a state of being) When you need clothes for an event and you can't face going to the mall to actually look, so you browse all of the online stores to see if — for example — Banana Republic has anything that isn't purple or teal on sale before you commit to a trip to Easton.
