Friday Five

Sam I am

1. What do you normally eat for breakfast?
Almost without exception, a Luna Bar S'more and a Sugar Free Red Bull.

2. Are you more likely to drink coffee or tea?
I'm not a tea drinker unless I'm vedy, vedy sick. I do, however, lurve coffee.

3. Would you consider yourself a good cook?
No, but I would consider myself an excellent critic. ;)

4. What is your favorite meal?
Today? (Because it does vary daily, if not hourly.) Won Ton Soup with extra Bok Choy.

5. Green eggs and ham: would you eat it?
That depends entirely on how it came to be.

Dear Higher Powers that be,

Please remind me not to say things like "I'm working off the same information as you" and "I don't know, read the notes" to my boss. I never *quite* say these things, but it is always my first instinct.

The operative in assistant is to assist.

PS And help me not kill his Pug for ripping into the bag of my 'spensive coffee from SF and spreading it all over the floor.

Gah.

Alt Friday Five

From the altfriday5:

1. Which languages do you know? How did you learn them (e.g. natively, from classes, by immersion)?
Natively, English. I've had classes in German, French, and Spanish, but Spanish is the only language that has remotely stayed with me. I suspect this is because it's the only language of the three that I get an opportunity to use.

2. Which language would you most like to learn? Why?
I'd like to know Spanish better but I'd also happy to become fluent in Italian. Why? Spanish--the practical applications are endless. Italian--I have plans for the world's greatest Italian road trip.

3. Have you visited any places where you did not know the predominent language? If so, which ones? Was it hard to manage?
Sadly, no.

4. Which language do you most enjoy hearing, seeing, or expressing? Why?
Italian. It's quite lyrical and I always associate it with leisure and good food.

5. Which languages, other than the one(s) you know, are you exposed to your daily life?
Now that I work in an office, it's an exclusively "English" only experience by default.

I'm super peevish tonight and that's a problem.

Tomorrow will be better. Why? Because I have to be fit company. Why? Because I'm going to Emperor Norton the musical!

Whee!
