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

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

muchas gracias,
I found this funny saying on the net the other day;
'me siento como un pulpo en un garaje' (I feel like an octopus in a garage). it is the equivalent to 'I feel like a fish out of water'
don't you just love language

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.
