Getting Ready

The movie was great. Because Batman. And Liam Neeson's voice.

So, I made the guys take me to The Lego Movie for my birthday last night and now I can't get that damn song out of my head.

"Everything is awesome! Everything is cool when you're part of a team..."

Which naturally leads to running the lyrics through Google Translate.

So when we arrive in Lisbon, I can sing "Tudo é incrível! Tudo é legal quando você faz parte de uma equipe..."in Portugese.

And then later in Spain, I can sing "Todo es increíble! Todo está bien cuando eres parte de un equipo..." in Spanish.

And in Tangiers I can say this: كل شيء رائع ... كل شيء بارد عندما كنت جزءا من فريق

And that concludes the fun part of my day, as I move on to vacuuming and laundry and airline check-ins and such.
