I think Prince Charles gets handjobs from his Valet, if you want to know....

ah, bliss. What I needed was to go to the gym, hear some bad music, waste my negative energy on chrome steel machines and see some lily white asses in the shower room.

Now I'm in peace.

Have a good weekend.

NYC is really neat. An ex of mine visited once while we were still dating and said that I'd probably like to visit, but not live here - well, he was certainly wrong! Now I just need to be making more money so I don't feel worried about spending "too much" money going out.

Portuguese is nearly like nothing I've ever heard before. I understand some Spanish and was lucky enough to work with a woman who spoke Brazilian Portuguese and at the same time to work at a site with someone from Portugal, so the Brazilian organized for me to hear the two of them speaking together so I could hear the difference. It was really interesting! I love languages and accents, it's an amateur hobby of mine, figuring out where people are from by their accents.

I'd love to go to England. I just bought Neverwhere, Neil Gaiman, and it has a map of the Underground at the beginning. It was neat b/c Thess frequently mentions certain stops and I located them on the map. I'm absolutely in love with accents from the UK (but that's no surprise). They're one of my favorite to do, although my Irish was tinged b/c I couldn't quite get the one down by the Irish guy I knew b/c he'd spent a lot of time in Liverpool. It kept falling into Scottish, which is really easy.

Anyway, I've talked your ear off. You're so lucky to have travelled so widely!

hehe... thanks! at the time, it didn't feel so lucky. I had to leave my friends behind in Brazil when I was 16 and move to Singapore... and I had to go to an English speaking school when I had been speaking mostly Brazilian Portuguese... it was tough.

Can I add you to my friends list?

:o)

sure! better to talk that way than to make huge strings of comments. Can I add you?
