Spanglish
My Spanish is so sad.
I just tried to tell a Spanish-speaking customer to take a number, and while I was supposed to say, "tome un numero," it actually came out as "Tow-May oon NOOM-uh-ROW."
I'll bet the mumbling that the man did under his breath following my sad display of Spanish was actually him cursing at me for butchering his language.
So sorry. Lo Siento. "LOW See-in-tow."
I really need to learn Spanish...

Whenever I encounter someone who can't speak english I totally clam up. I have this strange smile on my face and no words come out and I keep bobbing my head like I understand what they are saying to me. It scares me not to be able to communicate!
That's awesome! I can picture your face right now...
That brought a big smile to my face and made me laugh out loud. Thanks.
