Blue bird you look like an italian movie star! Ive been watching an italian medical soap opera on Acorn. The sound is in italian with english subtitles. Its set in the late 1960s so the clothes are great altho its mostly nuns!

The sound of italian is hitting me a certain way. You know how older people cant remember what they had for lunch yesterday but they remember stuff from a million years ago? It feels like its awakening stuff in me.

I never really thought about it, but my parents must have been speaking italian AROUND me when i was a toddler. They believed i spoke only english because i was born here. I grew up listening to all the relatives talking italian, i always understood everything. I didnt speak it very well, but i didnt speak well period.
