At work. Just spent a full minute staring at the title of a dissertation, trying to figure out what language it was in, only to realize it was in English.
*facepalm*
In all fairness, it was one of those scientific-type dissertations, and scientific jargon is rather similar in German and English. And most of these dissertations are in German, so that's what I was expecting. But the spellings of certain words were distinctly un-German, and so I got stuck on it, and then...oh. Yeah. English. You know, my first language. >_<
Clearly, I've been here too long. Less than 40 minutes to go.
