Hello!! (Loh...oh...oh...)
Nothing particularly exciting has happened since we last spoke. Funny, I put talked, then erased it. Is that good grammer, I ask you? Maybe it's just something we say. I don't know where you live, but something I've recently noticed that people around here say is "I seen". I mean, I knew that they said that before now, but I really just noticed now. Something else I've recently noticed that even I say is "whereabouts?". Not as is someones whereabouts, but as in "whereabouts did you leave it?" Now, I don't know if that is proper grammer anywhere, but I honestly can't think of another word to replace it. In some instances 'where' could be substituted, but in others, the only word to use is 'whereabouts'.
I'm not quite sure why I'm talking about this. It's not really something that takes up part of my life, although maybe I do think about grammer more often then others. I make a specific point (or try to) to speak properly. It's not because I don't want people to think I'm a 'hick' or anything, really, what people think about me, I try not to let bother me. No, it's more of a personal choice. I want to speak properly because I want to be...successful. I don't want to speak like I don't know how to, because in job interviews I don't want to screw up and sound naive or unprofessional. I don't know. That's how I feel.
Really, that's not what I wanted to talk about today, but I've forgotten what the origional idea was, so I'll just go on with this.
One more thing. You may have notice that I speak kind of oddly. For example, using the word 'oddly' rather than 'weird', or using the word rather. I really do speak like this in life; most people who know me don't even notice it anymore. I don't speak like this all the time though. Just often.
Thats about it.
So....
WAIT!!
I've decided that my favorite closing is this:
Smiles!

P.S....isn't it great?
