Okay, people? Just so you know? Shooting up a public area just to get back at your ex is not the right answer. Stop it. All of you.

Russian practice. Mostly what was done yesterday, including sentences to practice that little thing I did NOT mess up yesterday because NO ONE SAW THAT.

Это мой ноутбук.
Это моя книга.
Это моё платье.
Это мои очки.

Это твой шоколад? Нет, этот её.
Это ваша машина? Да, эта моя.
Это мой друг Сам и его брат Дин. Это их папа Джон.
Чья эта кошка? Эта кошка наша!
Чей этот дом? Этот дом наш.
Это их телевизор.

еру туче йгуыешщт шыб... well. I guess that answers that question. Interesting. I wonder if trying to actually speak Russian will get the right characters to appear on the screen.

Тщеу ерфе уфср... okay. I guess not. As you may have noticed, I'm playing around with my dragon. This is actually kind of fun.

See? Playing with Dragon. Not typing. Letting my wrist recover. Also, slathering it with Tiger Balm. Ow. Stinky.

Это мои дракони!

I didn't want to have to post so soon for something bad, dangit.

Well, joining on the dentistry bandwagon, I could swear I had a filling pop out today while at work and chewing on a cracker. Which means calling the dentist. And as Anna pointed out, its' about time for my annual anyway, and I have insurance, and there are things I could do while I'm in the chair that will take my mind off all the stinky, vibraty stuff happening in my mouth. Ugh.

That said? I think I figured out why this is irritating me so much. I feel like I don't deserve this. Yeah, in the past, if bad shit happened to my teeth it was because I ate too much candy or sweet stuff or didn't brush. But now? I brush! I brush twice a day, I floss, like they say you should. I don't eat very much sweet stuff. And, what the hell, I get a filling coming out anyway? Not fair! I don't want to have to go to the dentist and suffer when I'm doing all the right things! Never mind that in the years I didn't have insurance, not much happened.

I'm going to check in the mirror when I get home anyway (I've found stranger things in cracker boxes) and make sure it was a filling popped out. And find my dental insurance stuff and my dentist's phone number. And then I guess I'm going to call and make hte damn appointment, and from what I remember he's pretty good about getting you in quick when you have a sudden tooth issue. But, dammit. I didn't think this should happen.

ETA: All that whinging aside, I did make the dentist appointment. So. Go go baby courtsan me?

German practice! Namely, verbs. Being as German is similar to a lot of other languages I've studied (not the least of which is English) there's a lot that I'm already familiar with. The use of a bajillion pronouns for you, depending on number or formality. So! Um. First couple of days of German review will be entirely verbs. Simple ones.

(Words in brackets will be looked up later. For expansion of vocabulary!)
