Yeah, I know... it's not really early morning.

Bear with me.

The LJ notification system appears to have finally been fixed. Last night, I finally got a bunch of notifications from about two days ago. Just over the past hour, things appear to have caught up to "real time."

Overnight, it occurred to me that Fingerfehler has a plausible eggcorn, "finger failure." This, in turn, led me to conclude that an eggcorn may be a subset of mondegreen, which led me to conclude I am beginning to speak an entirely different language.

No time to wonder about that now, though. I hope to have retained enough English to finish the quality document by this afternoon. More work has already been dropped over the transom.

Cheers...

This is what I like. Today I have learned two new words: mondegreen and soramimi. I suggest anyone who is interested check wikipedia for explanations on those words.

Aha. Now I have something to discuss during breaks should I ever get to work with Japanese astronauts.

アホな放尿犯!

Cheers...
