Short one this morning. The hotel's hallway is being painted, so even at this hour you can hear the scritch of someone applying calk to the walls. May (Happy Donuts) is getting ready to see her family in Cambodia. She has an in ear phone on and is fielding calls from Aunts and cousins (Cambodian) while taking coffee and breakfast orders (Spanish and English) and tending to last minute details (officialese). She's her usual cheerful self, but I found that my expresso would be having rye with its huevos, changing planes in Tokyo - Bhat auntie - and would be taking the blueberry muffins out in 5 min, merci. For someone who grew up monolingual, it was a bravura performance.
