FRIDAY 28th NOVEMBER

LANGUAGE BARRIER

Ahhh, staying at the in-laws. Chilling out, watching the home entertainment theater. The conversation often goes as follows.

The Lady's mom: "You know, you guys. I don't know why you live come and live in Philadelphia. It's so dark in your New York apartment."
The Lady: "Mo-om!"
The Lady's dad: "What You Shouting About? I Say You Buy A Place In Brooklyn And What You Do? My Friends Think You're Crazy Living In Such A Small Little Shoebox"
Guy: "It wouldn't be so small if she didn't buy so many shoes"
The Lady laughs.
The Lady's mom: "What did he say?"
The Lady's dad: "Guy! You Know What You Have To Do? I Don't Understand You And Your British Accent. You Have To Learn To Speak American"
