Word Of The Day: Ennui

I came across this word twice today: Once listening to NPR and once reading the Costco monthly magazine.  I don't get to listen to NPR that often, but I spent the day at a VMware seminar in Jacksonville (cool product, so-so seminar), so I got to listen to NPR on the way there and back.  Had I remembered to bring my Nomad, I would have listened to tunes, but I didn't.  If you smirked at the thought of reading the Costco magazine, you shouldn't; it has some really interesting articles usually.  I had no idea what the word meant, but given encountering its use twice in one day, I was motivated to look it up.  I am glad I did.
