(no subject)

It's infuriating that I can talk to myself in French, and I can talk to other people in French if I'm slightly buzzed, but I can't do it sober and in company at the same time. All the French I ever learned goes straight out of my head.

In case you needed proof that my brain has holes in it, why can I remember the word for fireworks (feux d'artifice) when I can't remember the word for ice cream, which I know I learned at least once?

Weirdness.
