improve my vocabulary

I’ve been reading my “word(s) of the day” that keep popping up in my inbox. I don’t, however, remember what any of those words are or know that they mean at the moment. I’m not exactly on fire with this one.

I need to improve my vocabulary a lot, but hate it. It’s like washing silverware or folding my laundry. It’s one of those little things I can’t stand doing. I’ve been getting get a vocabulary word of the day in my inbox for a year now, and I delete them most of the time without reading them. I guess I should start reading them. We’ll see how that goes.
