Ich gehen zu Deutschland nicht
Probably not grammatically correct, but hey, the last time I studied German I was seventeen years old.
Looks like the summer trip to Germany won't be happening, and this time it's not because I'm poor (which I am, but that's beside the point). I talked with Keita for a few hours today and it looks like they may be coming back to the states before the summer's out.
And I'd been practicing my Deutsch:
Mein kopf schmerz (for when the kids gave me a headache)
Ja! Ja! (for when the locals offered me another beer)
Nein! Nein! (for when the locals offered me another bratwurst)
Scheizkopf (for fun)

My last official statement in German, during my sophomore year of college: "Ich habe diese klasse gedropt."
Oh, wait, then I had to pass that German translation exam for my MA in English. Let's just say I can do an almost-adequate rough translation of a German folktale involving some guy attempting to trap a goose using a piece of bacon fat on the end of a string...
"gedropt!" I love it!
This surely means a trip to Colorado instead. Molly and Tali will spend the day celebrating.
