You know when you eat too much and you just want to lie on the couch and not move until you feel normal again? Kitten tummy. Named after my kitten who would eat too much and lie flat on her back with her arms and legs extended, little swollen belly. I felt just like that yesterday after dinner. Mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie get me every time.

The term 'Dream Climber': a guy who is nicer to you in a dream than he is in real life and you wake up and have all of these affectionate and/or romantic feelings for him for no reason other than your dream. And then when you see him, you feel all giggly and stupid and embarrassed inside because he's a dream climber and doesn't know it. Especially if you liked it. Usage: You: "I don't know what I'll do when I have to see [Josh] again-- I had a dream we were making out and it's all I'll be able to think about..." Your Friend: "Ooohhh a dream climber!" Note: the reverse is also possible. You get pissed at him for something he did in a dream, and you're still pissed when you see him again in real life.

The term 'Cafe Diem': Caffeinate the Day. Usage: "We need to Cafe Diem, let's go get a cold Diet Coke." (Disclaimer: I like caffeine so much I think it should be sold as a spice and you can just sprinkle it on your food. Because quite frankly, sometimes I don't want to drink (i.e. pee) any more that day. Think: car and plane trips. The current delivery system leaves a lot to be desired.)
