Word of the Day: Peripatetic

As an editorial intern, I get to spend almost all of my time reading, reading, reading. Unpublished manuscripts, that is. Fortunately, almost everything I've read so far has been fairly well-written, and I might even go so far as to say engaging. Also fortunately, I've been impressed that almost every day I get to add a new word to my (what I thought of as already impressive) vocabulary. So here you have it: the word of the day.

Peripatetic

1. walking or traveling abroad, itinerant
2. of or pertaining to Aristotle

Don't ask me how those two definitions go together because honestly, I couldn't tell ya.
