My First New Word: Bedizan

So, the journey to a wider writing vocabulary begins. My first word of the day is (cue drum roll)

bedizen
\bih-DY-zuhn\ , transitive verb;
1.To dress or adorn in gaudy manner.

I love this word – it’s already got me thinking about my current favorite movie, The Blind Side, which I watched for the first time Sunday night … “I will not wear that gaudy orange!”

And now for my first sentence:

Sports fans unfamiliar with Vol-Nation probably think Vol fans bedizen themselves for football games.

What sentence have you thought of using bedizen?

Do you have a word you think I should learn for my Word of the Day expedition? Be sure the share it with me!
