I'm particularly proud of myself because I translated that while I was on the phone in English with someone else. Gotta celebrate those little accomplishments when they come!

I remember when I was in undergrad and I was walking with my then-girlfriend (now-wife) speaking English, and basically the next two people I saw within 30 seconds of each other were my Chinese and Japanese professors. So let's just say I was not prepared at that time to speak so many languages at once.

An observation, then, for beginners of Japanese: one day you, too, will be able to operate in two languages at the same time! (Although hopefully better than I.)
