... one day, I'm gonna have to cave and spend some time getting used to 繁体字. If you I don't know enough of the vocab to guess from context, reading 繁体字 is so inconvenient, it's too much 什么什么 to understand without a dictionary. Wah my Chinese sucks so bad, I really need to get back there.
*grins* Keep the 中文 coming, ne? It's good exercise for me. (E.g. I didn't know 烂 was used in that context.)
Ah, but your Chinese has the colloquialisms I don't get from reading Chinese news. (Not that I do that enough.)
Sometimes it seems like a curse that there're both, but I like the simpleness of the simplified ones and the prettiness of the traditional characters. Just a little bit more work for the non-native speaker. XD
