I have been told by friends who happen to overhear my side of the weekly phone conversations between my sister and me that ours is a private language, barely discernible even to those who know me best, a thick brew of intensity and high hilarity, baby talk and worldly counsel, sophisticated allusions, salty Yiddish and a patois of strange inflections and phraseology almost primitive in its litany.
