Fuzzys Musings and Warblings

  Japanese is harder than Spanish Or maybe I'm just dumber now. That's a given. Actually, Japanese is pretty tough to learn. The subject is first in a sentence then the object and the sentence ends in a verb. So I go to the store is written: I to the store go. Actually that kinda makes sense. But there are modifier words that come after the subject (like wa, no, e) that indicate when the subject is over and the object begins. Kinda interesting, except there are a zillion modifier words and they pertain to things like the shape of the object and (flat, round) and the size of it (bigger than a breadbox, etc.). And what's gonna happen is that I'm gonna learn just enough to be dangerous. No, that's not true. Anything helps. I'll be with Japanese speakers, so it won't be too tough. I can just give them my money and say, "give me back whatever the change is."

I was sitting on my foot just then, as I wrote that last paragraph, and now my foot is cramping. But at least I have fancy new pillows that will solve all my shoulder and neck problems. And a sexy woman to share my bed with, who also gets a fancy pillow. Maybe I should get a foot pillow.

I have to water the garden now; so sorry for such a short entry, but you'll take what you can get, won't you?
