Definitely feeling euphoric. Listening to a new playlist on a Sunday afternoon after eating some chocolate makes for a strange mix.

Jeebus, the local cops shot a 2 by 4 welding man at the ferry so now the boat is out of service. I guess I can sleep in my car tonight...

No, they had reopened by the time I got off work.

Do you know if the chap they shot was killed?

HAF's been kind of slow today. :(

This can't go on. I expect to see lots of posts when I come home from school/work!  :domanatrix:

He survived the shooting but was taken to Riverside Hospital. Whether he survives his stay there is up in the air.

Does anyone else have words that they just can't pronounce? I get tongue tied every time I try to say rear-wheel drive.

Not that I am aware of. But that may change as there are lots of words I have yet to here.

I used to have trouble with "tournament" but have gotten better. My father pronounced quite a few words in odd ways and it rubbed off on me. I speak softly and fairly slowly though, so that helps a lot.

My car is at the dealer now they kicked up a fuss because I didn't have the carpeted cover as I had thrown it out. It was moldy and disgusting so I didn't want it to stay in my car. I had to call my boyfriend to fish it out of the garbage so I can bring it to the dealership when I return the loaner l.

It has not been a good few weeks

In English I sometimes forget to pronounce 'pronunciation' correctly, saying 'pronounce-iation' instead. But hell, when I get nervous I speak quickly, and words sort of come out as a jumbled string of incomprehensible verbiage. :lol: 

Brazilians in general have a tough time with words such as 'year' (saying 'ear' instead) and 'whirlwind' (too many grouped consonants.). 'Two' and 'chew' may sound the same, chew too.

It's 15 past midnight and I feel too tired to sleep. Never thought that was possible -- but it is. The alarm clock's been set, I'm supposed to wake up in 6 hours, and I know with each passing minute I'll regret not lying on my bed staring at the ceiling while trying to doze off.

I find its better to run on zero sleep than very little sleep compared to what you would normally get in a night. Something kicks in to keep you going. A certain, quiet ferocity awakens. It might just be stress but it works well for me.
