It blew my mind earlier. Out of the last four months I only spent three weeks at home. The rest was all Russian, Russian, Russian. About six weeks into the trip I finally got a chance to speak English, and I was startled that I had difficulty saying "green grass" and then half the other words. And if you think that was bad, earlier this week I told someone they were "velcome"

I could write a book about becoming Russified over the years. Things keep going the way they are, I will be writing in Vladimir Putin in 2012.
