this is so quotidian.

I learned a marvelous new word yesterday, new to me anyway.  The word is 'quotidian' and I read it in this sentence written by an artist who will be showing her work at First Pres Gallery this fall, "These pieces function as unbridled celebrations of the temporality and transcendence of the commonplace: broadsides, frontispieces & posters, all acting as endorsements of joy in the quotidian."
It's such a wonderful word for a simple idea. You can be sure I will remember it when my family and I play Quiddler.
