Linguistic Milestone
Apparently, my Spanish is finally good enough that the staff at our local Mexican joint feel free to speak with me entirely in Spanish. It's been a long time coming.
Tonight, one of the servers greeted me with a pat on the shoulder:
Hola. Amiga. Estas muy bonita! Estas esperando bebe, non?
Culturally, this is not something this server would ever say to an English-only customer.
So, I was flattered.
But also, it would appear that I'm not the only one who has noticed the 5 extra pounds I'm carrying...
Good Times.
