Word of the Week: conniption
con·nip·tion
[kuh-nip-shuhn]
–noun
a fit of hysterical excitement or anger
Someone had a bit of a conniption fit last night. The “cook” had gone on strike for breakfast and lunch at my house yesterday. When the strike threatened to continue through dinner, a small conniption fit was thrown resulting in a pretty good meal, thrown together from what could be dug out of the fridge and freezer.
