I plan on doing a full report of our Southern California road
trip once I get my pictures back from the developer" We shall wait with baited breath.
Or should we just use mouthwash???

What is "baited breath" exactly?

Sounds kinda fishy to me

It's actually 'bated breath'. Basically it's holding your breath. Bate means 'to lessen the force of; moderate'. It comes from the same root as abate. It's pretty much fallen out of the lexicon except for this expression (as far as I'm aware)

Now come on, B....you know I love a smart a**!
