Today's word is the rather splendid eargh.
According to the calendar, it means:
"Superstitiously afraid. This is the word of which eerie is a later form."
Now, we'll skip over the small problem that, as far as I'm aware, eerie means more "superstitiously scary" than afraid. Eargh! Any word which can be mistaken for the noise you make when treading barefoot on an upturned three pin plug gets my vote.
Remember kids, three times in conversation and once in your LJ.
