Word Of the Week- W.O.W starts now!

In an effort to increase my vocabulary, I am going to pick a word to use for a week and try to use it, appropriately of course. This may bore [v. to make (someone) feel weary and uninterested by tedious talk or dullness] some of you, but my goal [n. the object of a person's ambition or effort] is not necessarily to entertain [v. provide with amusement or enjoyment] in this venture but to document [v. record in written, photographic or other form] these things so that I can look back in 20 years and remember [v. bring to mind something seen, known or experienced in the past] these times and say, "what the heck [excl. expressing surprise, frustration or dismay] was I thinking!?!"

My first W.O.W.
ebullient \ih-BUL-yuhnt\, adjective:
1. Overflowing with enthusiasm or excitement; high-spirited.
2. Boiling up or over.

I would say that I am ebullient/feel ebullient/exude ebullience (I'd like to see it in a sentecne to be sure of the correct usage)at least 75% of the time. It's a Foulger trait that I get from my Mother, which I'm learning fits in with the Dyer family as well.
