How to Blend In...Part 2

Well, as you read earlier, it is important to the US government that we blend in. I think I've finally done it.

I went to IKEA yesterday to exchange some chairs and said this in my broken Italian to the guard at the front of the store. He looked at me, and then started talking to me in German! When I looked at him even more like a deer in the headlights, he switched to his broken English and told me that he was German and thought I was too. I guess I'm getting closer.....

Oh, and in line at IKEA, the woman behind me started talking to me in Italian. I told her I only speak poco italiano. She didn't care and just kept talking so I just kept smiling.
