We were in need of shelving and had looked at some furniture that was quite expensive. ($100 for a wooden shelf you could get for $20 at Target or Ikea, and it wasn't even stable.) So Steph comes up with the brilliant idea to build shelves. All we needed was some bricks and some glass. (She's out purchasing the glass as I type this.)
A few days ago we were riding in a taxi and she tells the man to pull over. "Ekk minute," she says, meaning "one minute." She comes back carrying 2 bricks and then threw another two in the taxi. The man just stared at her, turned around, and resumed driving us home. Not amused, no slight smile, or strange look...just a dead straight faced stare. Indians have an incredible sense of humor and are very funny people in conversation. They just aren't amused by some of the silly things we are I guess.
