First post

I will be updating soon with what has transpired so far in my PC journey. Hopefully at some point I will be able to come up with a better word than "journey" to describe what I'll be going through.

I can also see this blog serving an interesting linguistic function. As I learn Ukranian or Mongolian or whatever and gradually become fluent in it, assuredly my English-speaking faculties will deteriorate and become evident in my writing. It'll be interesting to see what sort of things go and get replaced, and what sort of things are hard to retain and/or regain. I'm aware of syntax blending in multilingual people, so I can look forward to that for sure.
