Moi!

Today's Word "Griselda"

Griselda \gri-ZEL-duh\ (noun) - 1 : A woman of exemplary meekness and patience. 2 : A female given name: from a Germanic word meaning 'gray battle.'

"While most in the office described Lois as 'mousy," Hank considered her more of a Griselda given her ablility to work through a long, tiresome, complicated project while never complaining of the difficulty or added workload."

Def. 1 after a character in a tale of the same name in Giovanni Boccaccio's Decameron.

  1. When you say "moi", do you mean this is a picture of you? Because that is how I imagine you - the sexy blonde with a pretty face and slender body (like Jenny McCarthy!!)
