Russian! And lo, I was a good baby courtesan and did not ignore my studies to be petty. (Long story.)

I may have done this find out what your partner does in a typical week thing before, but it can always be done again.

Ирина часто идёт в ресторан. Она обычно встаёт в шесть часов.
Астрид читает газету каждый день. Она иногда ведёт едет в гараж. (Hopefully I got that verb right. One thing I'm learning is that the verbs are the least corresponding of almost any language I've run into yet. Better verb suggested.) *moves cut so note is visible*

NOTE THIS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE:
Prep: Where are you
Acc: Where are you going

Corrected in the above statements. Prepositional is static locative; accusative is transitive locative. Remember this.

Note to self: Just because you write well does not exempt you from the red pen of doom. It is good that you are editing your work. It is even better that you are recognizing just how bad that first draft is. It just as much better that you did not either post or scrap the story just because it is pretty bad and needs edited.

Oi. Come on, brain. Kick into gear. Just because it's crap now doesn't mean it can't be fixed, and you know how to fix it. So fix it. At lunch.

(Abby/Gibbs, not Astrid. I have a LONG list of things to fix on Astrid. Oh so long. But that's a task for a period of many months, so.)
