we´re on our way to the eastern coast of spain, the last leg of our trip. i can´t believe we have less than a week left. though i´m having a fantastic time, i can´t wait to dig into some mama yi´s korean cooking when i get back to LA. oh, kimchi, don´t worry, mama´s comin´home soon.
random story of the day:
on a stroll through the park few days ago, a brit chick darted towards me with a broken flipflop in her left hand. in broken, slow, retarded english, she says: ¨do you know...these shoes...where...NEW ONES????¨ with this big wax-on-wax-off hand motion. i stare at her for a split second and say, ¨there were a few shoe stores on the street behind us.¨ she responds quietly: ¨oh, you speak english. thanks.¨ and she walked away.
so, i can give her credit for thinking that i was some asian tourist who spoke a little english (i mean, i was wearing my fobby visor). okay, fine. but how is that stupid hand gesture the universal sign language for anything?
