There is, thank God, a word that sums up that annoying thing you do when your taxi is 20 minutes late and you're too restless to wait for the doorbell to ring. It's iktsuarpok - "to go outside often to see if someone is coming."
I think I live in a constant state of iktsuarpok.

Um... Clearly, in bed at night is the best time for didis.
Senzuri (Japanese) Male masturbation (literally "a hundred rubs"). "Shiko shiko manzuri" is the female version (literally "ten thousand rubs").

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
