dishsomnia

Dishomnia is an inability to do the dishes because of excessive sleepiness. The person typically experiences changes in the amount and/or timing of sleep, and how restful it is in direct correlation to when it is his or her turn to do the dishes. It is rampant in 'tweens and teenagers.

Our daughter has chronic dishsomnia.

panic parkour

1) a phrase describing the adrenaline-fueled parkour champion-like moves no one, including you, ever knew you had, in an emergency situation. For instance:

Picture, if you will, an indoor play structure at a nursery school/day care. I'd wondered before how the grown ups were supposed to get in there if there was ever a kid inside that needed help. Then one day, one of the tiny tots bit another one real good, right inside the play structure.
I moved so fast that before I knew it I was inside the stupid thing with a screaming toddler in my arms, and no clear recollection of how I'd gotten there. I have a vague recollection of backing into it, somehow. The other toddler looked me dead in the eye and told me, very confidentially, "I bite."
YES, I THINK WE'VE ESTABLISHED THAT

2) possible reference to "Panic Parkour", a set of hott trax laid down by Urban Action, Dubstep & Chill

I don't like extreme sports or cross fit. However, show me a kid or animal in danger and my panic parkour moves will inspire awe.

nom de mello

The assumed name of one who has undergone a spiritual awakening, with or without the aid of sacred herbs or other hallucinogens, and has decided to rename themselves something more appropriate to his or her enlightened status.

Hugh Romney assumed the nom de mello Wavy Gravy after what he considered a mystical experience onstage with B.B. King.

"She gave herself the name Ananda, it's a nom de mello."
