One Semester of Spanish - Love Song

Last night at work my patient didn't speak a lick of English. In an attempt to communicate with her better, I caught myself making up words that sounded Spanish. At one point I said, "contraction" with a Spanish accent and one of her visitors started to laugh at me. Who knows, that may actually be the right way to say contraction, but I'm guessing not.

In an attempt to make further fun of me, Nicole showed me this link. I laughed so hard I cried (of course it was 4 am and everything is funny at that time of day)!

holy freaking A. That was the best video ever. I really might have to steal that and slap it on my blog. Don't worry, I'll give you the credit:)

I am so digging your blog. EVERYTHING about it. by the way, the day you got your new ride Jeff and I passed you as you were turning out of Bajios. Jeff said (and I quote)..."Isn't that Jen's sister? That is a good looking Van. SHe looks good in that Van."
No joke. Apparently your pimped out tinting isn't conceiling your identity, but at least you look smokin' in that thing:)
