At Tuesday’s game I got a chance to talk to Nate’s buddy Eddie. In Spanish. Eddie is great at holding conversations with me in Spanish. Our interaction went like this:
“Yo, Eddie, great to see you! How are you?”
“Good, good.”
“So, I hear it’s beach day tomorrow. Are you going on the beach field trip?”
“No. Unfortunately, I can’t go. I’m going to Mammoth.”
“To go skiing? Wow you lucky duck…. so another question for you.”
“Yeah?”
“Is tomorrow snocone day?”
“Yep. Wednesday snocone days.”
“So… how much do snocones cost?”
“$3.”
“Huh. If they’re $3, how come Nate always asks me for $10?”
“Oh, yeah? I meant $10.” He says, with a big dimpled smile.
