The word for yes in Czech is 'ano'. Which to me sounds like "ahhhhh, no". I constantly therefore feel like I'm saying no when I say yes. Someone suggested that I use the more informal 'jo' which translates to 'yeah'.
I love this language in it's simplest form. (In it's more complicated form it's damn hard) When else would I get to say 'ahoj' and 'jo' in daily life and not sound like a retard? So here I am with another word that I get to use on a daily basis that makes me giggle to myself every time I say it thinking of the movie Rocky and how my sister hated growing up with Adrienne as a name in the 80s. Awesome.

Happy Birthday to You!

Happy 28th Birthday baby sister!
I cannot believe I was writing 28 for your bday this year. In my head you're maybe 20. Before it was 16 so you've jumped a few years but still, no where near 28. Course in my head I'm not freaking 30 in two days either.
I'm sorry I'm not there to celebrate with you, but I'm there in spirit. Enjoy your day, or hell, week. I feel like as we get older we should take MORE time to celebrate birthdays. And if you're in at Wood Tavern for cocktails to celebrate have a sip for me and tell them I say hello.
Spoil yourself!
Love
Big Sister
