I don't have any excuses for posting so late. I went to church and came home and fixed left overs and then took a nice long nap. Sometimes naps happen. They have a tendency to sneak up on me more and more lately. Okay, so we're learning some new big words. I learned something new yesterday courtesy of the internet. Some words we call acronyms are actually initialisms. For instance the term AIDS is an acronym because you pronounce it as a word, not each individual letter. The FBI is not an acronym. It is an initialism. As is the IRS. So today I have discovered that some of my least favorite words are initialisms. Who knew? Well, I hope this has been enlightening to some of you as it has to me. Some of you probably already knew this kind of stuff. I didn't go to college so I still have a lot to learn but at least I don't have any student loans to pay off. Y'all have a blessed rest of the day. Relax and enjoy.
