Let my heart be the part by which you judge me.
Like the sun in everyone, it is pure.

Faux-Amies*
It is always amusing in French class to watch the “I know too much to look up these words” people get tripped up by what we call *”false cognates” en anglais. I’m hoping for such tonight as one of our vocab words is décevant. Deceiving? No. Disappointing.
I, as you must have known, am an anal-looker-upper. Even when I know that I already know the word in question. I’m always checking to make sure there isn’t also an idiomatic definition I don’t know about. I waste a lot of time that way. But time…well, that’s in surfeit over here.
Protected: It’s got the right rhythm.
Last Night on iTunes.
