I like this word

This going to bed at 10:30 business means I'm wide awake before sunrise. Unacceptable. I tried to stay in bed, but I had one line from one song ("...beaten into submission in the name of the free"), so that, too, was unacceptable, and here I am, steeling myself for getting into the shower in this chilly house. My brain alternates, in the early morning, between singing songs to me, thinking about work, and designing the new house.

The Braingle word of the day is ex-cur-sive :: adj

Constituting a digression or characterized by digression.

"We are wandering, however, into excursive speculations, when our intention was merely to give an idea of the nature of the wilderness which Mr. Hunt was about to traverse" -- Irving, Washington

True -- it led me to listen to IG stuff all morning, which makes for a nice morning.
