The waitress looked at me rather funny and said, "Uuuhhh is that some kind of alcohol??" So then I had to do a fake American accent and she understood. So silly!

...Such a cute video! I've gotta give it a go :)<br /><br />I'm American and work for a water company, and they can't even understand me when I say water sometimes, which is a pain in the neck, really, since my work email address contains the word "water", and 9 times out of 10, I have to spell it out to be understood. Different parts of the country say it differently, emphasizing various parts of it.<br /><br />Have fun exploring the nation's capital and visiting your fiance's family!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375637475795118873.post-53399708310645155282010-06-09T16:22:06.841+01:002010-06-09T16:22:06.841+01:00I just love your style Emily.
