You don't say "sore-y" either, right?
Ha! This is totally a thing. ND's parents both immigrated from Canada, and he has a lot of Canadianisms, including that one. Every time he says sorry it makes me giggle a little inside.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I had no idea the way I say borrow is considered Canadian until Nutty complained about Nathan Fillion doing it in Firefly. Then I could hear the difference, and couldn't say the word without feeling awkward for about six months.
I mean, like sorry, there's a fuckin' O in it, Americans.
AN O, I SAY.

Also, I didn't realize until I was writing Buffy fic how many turns of phrase I use on a regular basis, picked up from my parents and extended family, are not common down here. My betas would chide me for it on a semi-regular basis.
No flat A in pasta or Mazda though. Those ones make me cringe.

well I can use the voice feature on my phone, but it's a pain in the ass and its really slow and auto correct hates me and it takes me for f****** ever. Also I am able to use my husband superpower NASA NSA super secure Batman computer for doing some stuff that I need to do, like I can work on my website later. However, he doesn't have word, so I can't do any editing work until I have Word back. Luckily I finished my section I was copyediting yesterday, so I am good until I get my next section of the manuscript.
