7:58am Kenai, AK
I have a male housekeeper. He cleans the male bathrooms. He is our token guy.
His name is Ilian and he is from Bulgaria. Ilian doesn't speak such great english so we have a hard time joking around even though i am sure we would both find the other one quite funny. I make lots of noises and gestures to get my point across - it is helpful but rather odd looking. (And to make everything a little more confusing - in Bulgaria nodding your head means 'no' and shaking your head means 'yes.')So this morning i am getting ready for the day and Petya - the gear goddess - and Ilians friend, says that last sunday when we were cleaning the upper office - or football field as i like to think of it - Ilian told her i looked like Freddie Mercury. Not so much in looks but more the way i was dancing and vacuuming with my ipod. I guess i was just being silly to pass the time and make the giant room seem smaller. But today i think i will sing along. maybe dance with the vacuum.

It's good to know the music of Queen transcends all language and cultural barriers. I'll never be able to think of Freddie Mercury again without thinking of you...
