I end up with a really interesting mix of English, German, Russian and 
Portuguese at times.   Leaves some of my Germanic friends scratching 
their heads, especially when a couple of Roosky and/or Brazilian words 
are included within each conversation string.  I then find myself trying 
to remember the verbage needed when they catch me on mixups.

I've already forgotten 2 other languages in my old age, so that 
simplifies my language mixups somewhat. But come to think of it, I never 
really could think to myself in those languages to begin with.
