    Words if not Crepuscular become boring. They should be like a girl in a short skirt, that covers the essentials but lures to discover more.

    Crepuscular is from Latin creper meaning dusky, dark; uncertain, doubtful, obscure. Fits the Twilight book & movie, don't you think?

    When leaving a one-night-stand's apartment, I always do so when it's crepuscular. I can't stand to see who looked so good the night before.
