Word of the Day: omphaloskepsis

omphaloskepsis (n)

Navel-gazing, or preoccupation with oneself.

"From the omphaloskepsis of my writing I have been dragged back into life."
--Brian Moore, An Answer from Limbo

Another good alternative name for this blog....

My little brother had an "outie" bellybutton as a kid, and I used to press it while saying "ding dong!" as if it was a doorbell. He would laugh.
