Scotland arrival
diaryland entry 4:00 p.m. - 2005-10-16
Hello.
I'm in Scotland. I've moved here because this is where my husband lives. I like Scotland, but I am not sure I'll ever feel like I belong here.
I don't understand paying for a tv license. It's like they put a gun to your head and make you support PBS.
I don't understand the British need to make a cutesey nickname for everything. They are too lazy to say the entire word "vegetable", so they shorten it to "veg". Then they decide that isn't cutesey enough, so they come up with some rhyming slang and call it "uncle reg". Which is no shorter or easier than calling it by its proper name in the first place.
There is no Velveeta. There is no root beer. This is very wrong. How am I supposed to make my favorite nacho dip without Velveeta and RoTel?
I guess I should go and see if my husband is awake. Jet lag is a bitch.
