Mayonnaise Alexander. I was greeted with this phrase today. I was meeting a new person who was at the cultural center today. I had just introduced myself to him in Russian (but obviously I'm not a Russian by my name. It's just not Russian at all.
So the guy responds to me and says, "Mayonnaise Alexander". So I think. Okay - is he making fun of me? Maybe I said something wrong? Um.... "Colby Jack" or maybe "Pepper Jack" or "Mustard Mike". But no....
Follow the parallel syllables with me:
May - on - naise - Alexander
My - - name is - Alexander
Laughter is such good medicine. I'm almost at 100% after the cold of 40+ hours of sleep...It's like a full week of work that was sapped by this cold.
