Forgot

the most important thing today.

I ate with the SUA kids at a restaurant for dinner. I ordered a hamburger patty (I know, I gave into the temptation of delicious Japanese meat) that comes with a sunny-side up egg: medama hambaagu. Well, I suppose I was a little cocky, having seen the picture of the egg and kind of knowing the kanji. So I ordered "tamago hambaagu," or egg hamburger. The waiter corrected me to make sure of my order... and I--embarrassed on the inside, hopefully composed on the outside--corrected myself. "Hai, medama hambaagu."

The learning experience begins!

  1. I think it's pretty cool that you already learned how to speak in italics...
