a·roint –vi. begone: as in "Aroint thee, witch!" (William Shakespeare, Macbeth)
To balance out the last post (which was rather heavy) and to give evidence of my humanity (if you found you needed more), I thought I would add that tonight I burnt popcorn (while trying to re-pop it... don't ask) in our microwave. Again. And, fearing that the scent would penetrate the entire room like it has in times past, I quickly sealed the bag and rushed it to our bathroom, where I disposed of it in the trash can, far from any porous surface that might absorb the noisome odor.
And lo, now our washroom smells of tuna. My apologies to my neighbors...
...Aroint thee, foul tuna-ish-burnt-popcorn odor!
