Repercussion: an action or effect given or exerted in return : a reciprocal action or effect b : a widespread, indirect, or unforeseen effect of an act, action, or event —usually used in plural (Merriam-Webster)
Today's word reflects the effects of yesterday's dinner party and the full-body badness that resulted from the punch. Repercussive indeed. We poured champagne over the last of the rum punch. I did not get to work until 2pm. Cause, effect. Thank the Lords of Kobol for flexible hours. And for ginger ale.
Tomorrow is a primary, so I get to work the polls for a candidate in the morning. My shift starts at 6:30am. Is NOW too early to go to bed? Something somewhat longer and less too-much-last-night-today next time.
