K, my English is OFFICIALLY fucked up, yo. I don’t get how….it’s not like I’m never around gaijin! Nevertheless, it is beyond repair at the moment! Maybe it is because I am used to dumbing it down for school kids? Who knows. All I know is, sometimes my students know the correct answers to English questions before I do!
Last night I was talking to Eduardo online for a minute before he went to work, and I was wishing him a great day (you know, because I’m an amazingly sweet boyfriend like that). I had had a long Thursday, so I told him, “I hope your day is less long than mine!!!” to which he responded, “less long or shorter?” It literally took me like two minutes to realize what he was talking about. SAD! Hello, I shouldn’t have to be taught English by a Mexican! This is a sad state of the union, my friends! (I don’t know why it is the state of the union…I have been reading too much Sarah Vowell)
Oh, well, at least I know Cindy’s English sucks at the moment, too, muahahaha! However, that does make sense, as we are the same person….
