I woke up this morning with a sore throat. Yay, me! It’s really bad and I can hardly talk. It’s lovely. I’ve been sucking on Halls like my life depends on it, but nothing’s hitting that weird spot that hurts. I’d go into more detail but I don’t need to gross anybody out. So I’ll just sit here trying to clear my throat, sucking on Halls and water.

I also seem to have developed a splitting headache within the past hour. I wish I knew why that snuck up on me. All in all, today seems like it will be a pretty dull day. Even the weather agrees. It’s 3 in the afternoon and the sun is barely shining.

Since I’m so good at snarking lately, can anyone explain how somebody used the word “particually” instead of particularly? I tried saying the misspelled way, but it doesn’t even sound close enough that I can understand it! It’s not like “prolly” (which I also don’t care much for) where if you say it very fast, it almost sounds that way. No, “particually” is in a league of its own.
