Sometimes I find myself wanting to utter words that have never been a part of my daily vocabulary. Am I alone in this? There are simply times when I become so *&^% frustrated!
Like when I type the stupid "coded word" for my new Belgian bank account and there's NO context to tell that the lower case "x" I just typed was supposed to be upper case!
And, looky here, I'm LOCKED OUT!
You know those words that come to mind, right?
Then I email our nice Engels sprekende banker and ask for my second chance. He pushes "reset" and I anxiously await the next "code", hoping there's no "x" while our banker has developed his own case of coprolalia and is probably mumbling "*&^% amerikanen".
And I just realized I don't know any Flemish vloeken!
That's probably a good thing.
Speaking of Flemish vloeken...did you figure out how to use the washing machine?
