It looks like it doesn't snow anymore in Paris in winter, that's too bad. But, to be honest, it never really snowed much that much. I envy those who live in continental climates.

I was more sensible this year. Usually, I buy them the day before. But I should really take care of it in November.

I buy half my Christmas presents before October and the other half five days before. But I don't like Christmas shopping, so I've decided to learn to crochet in a hell of a hurry.

It went well, but on the way out I smacked into a glass screen.

__________
My English translations tend to be longer than the originals when I write in Poswa first, Ive noticed .... and especially so when I pick Poswa words with almost as many morphemes as phonemes, as bebažovi "I watched something go underneath me" which breaks down as beba-a-ž-o-s-v-i run.under-TR-PASS-1P-GEN-see-1P.past. ("see" can be analyzed as an evidential, but I just consider it a compound verb since it can also occur with 2nd person.)

The semantic shift that led me to use "roll" for "go to an appointment" is from rolling being a type of travel that has a definite endpoint, since balls roll until they reach the lowest point. I intend the word to be used mostly for hunting meetups in Poswob culture.
