Just makes me feel like a big loser. Ahhh, the joys of communicating in a foreign tongue.

I love your blog, had to comment about your phone conversation.
Whenever there’s something I need to know for a map we’re doing Perry will “annoyingly” say “just call them” and I about have a panic attack!

Oh my gosh do I have my own share of “teléfono arabe” situations when it comes to language misunderstandings…

But hey, at least you got the info you were looking for. I’ve had times when the person speaking to me has the impression that I’ve understood completely their instructinos and happily hangs up the phone leaving me with a big question mark on my face (and a huge “L” for loser on my forhead too).

Fned.

I want to know all I can.

Love, Jer

I heard that it happened a lot to Mother Teresa, too.

And Prince.
