I am so tired of it. Remember when I had that weird condition for like a week? Where I felt weak, foggy, and had a big time nausea? Well, I have it again. I think it is caused by anxiety. I just get to feeling so much anxiety that...

Jehanne I usually used "back on track". So many idioms some I'm familiar with, some haven't encounter. But it is nice to learn something new.

Marie Coyle We have too much slang in our country, as well. I can definitely feel sorry for anyone from another country trying to figure it out here. I try hard to speak and write in a way that is understandable. I do know that a lot of the slang, or words that become...

Lenore Plassman I'm sure I say most of those. When I write a short story I try to weed them out because they aren't original. Writing cliches is just lazy and often doesn't give a picture of the particular situation that I want building.
