I stumbled across this article by David Sedaris in the New Yorker (the online edition, so no I did not pick up a copy at the local newspaper stand in Barrão Geraldo). After reading this article 1) I couldn't stop laughing and 2) I could definitely relate to the author's musings on misunderstandings. So rather than bore you with one of my own banal examples, I thought I'd just include the link to the article and you can imagine it's me in Brazil (not Paris) and change the underwear story to something more trivial like inadverantly ordering an egg plant smoothy (which actually happened to Alexis but I was with him when it happend so I can claim it as my own).
Enjoy!
