Here's mine for today (do you think we're the only ones who are playing?? :unsure:)

pegajoso/a

meaning "sticky".

It definitely describes the weather we're having here lately!
It just doesn't seem right to have such humid weather.............several people (myself included) have got rotten headaches :(

No soy capaz de seguir el ritmo.
I can't keep the rythm of the music, sounds like me when I'm singing to Karaoke.

Re: A word a day?
 
yo tampoco (when you are agreeing with a negative statement you need to use tampoco, not tambien)

Doesn't that mean. "Don't bother me" / "Don't molest me"?
