\ NIT-id \ , adjective;

Quotes:
Intolerably, I dreamt of an exiguous and nitid labyrinth: in the center was a water jar; my hands almost touched it, my eyes could see it, but so intricate and perplexed were the curves that I knew I would die before reaching it.
-- Jorge Luis Borges, The Immortal
"What!" exclaimed Sir Norfolk, almost shuddering at the inadvertence he had committed; "a waiting-man in such costly and nitid attire."
-- William Harrison Ainsworth, The Miser's Daughter
I went onto a site today to try and find a word to describe how I felt today. I found a word, a word I never knew existed and it made me even more “nitid” today.
Nitid means Bright; Lustrous – and that is how I feel today. I got a car today, my own car, a car that is not falling apart, that is not old and that drives like a dream.
I’ve never been a fussy or “high” maintenance type of girl and have accepted a lot of crap in my life and settled when I really shouldn’t have settled.
But here I am and look at what I have now... MIDGET!
My little car - my new little car - Midget
SO Nitid is truly a good word for me today. I don't have many of these days but today is such a day.
I don't want to write more about today... cause I'll start planning again for thing that are coming up and that will ruin my word of the day...
So i'm shutting up and being nitid!
