​Cerebrating. That's a pretty fancy sounding word, isn't it? Since it's similar to cerebrum, you've probably guessed that it means to think.

I didn't even know this word existed until a few weeks ago when it appeared as the Word of the Day on my Merriam-Webster app. But I loved the sound of it.

I sure wish I could put ​the above sign on my desk at work. Alas, I share an office space with four other employees. There's no privacy and silence is rare. But a ​gal sure can hope for everyone else to be at lunch or in a meeting in order to get some deep thinking done. *sigh*

Here's the official definition and a bit of history on the word from the Merriam-Webster website: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cerebrating

Happy cerebrating!
