When I was in school my mom would show her sympathy for my neurotic wining about how one of the girls hurt my feelings by calling them a "flibbertigibbet." Definition: A silly, scatterbrained, or garrulous person, a flighty or whimsical person. It didn't sound mean at the time and I think she did it just to amuse me and diffuse the power I had given their remarks or actions. She would also tell me not to be a flibbertigibbet. Isn't that a great word. It does and silly dance off your tongue when it is said. I think in many ways I am actually a flibbertigibbet, but then, that is part of the charm!
