In other news, I got asked for my ID yesterday while buying a lotto ticket.
So i was quite shocked. i mean i'm 23 next month!
Well, i never buy alcohol or lotto. i guess that was why it was shocking. ha.
me: Ich hätte gern ein Rubbellos, bitte. (I'd like a ticket, please.)
man: Sind sie achtzehn? (are you 18?) ('sie' can also mean 'they')
me: Nein sie sind 1€. (no,they are 1 euro) (i thought he meant the tickets, i confuse 80 and 18 in german, along with 4 and 5, so in my head this made sense.)
man: Nein, sind SIE achtzehn? (no, are YOU 18)
me: Uh. (this needs no translation..)
man: Haben Sie einen Ausweis? (do you have a ID card?)
me: OK.
Then i exited the store and Heiko went in and bought one.
'cause y'know, he has a moustache like Pedro.

i love her too and it is a beautiful drawing..
and also a very funny story :P xx
That's so beautiful Lil, I'm sure Jeannie Baker would be proud. :)
I can't believe you got carded! Maybe cause you sounded a bit confused/nervous when you bought the ticket cause of the translation thing and the counter guy mistook it for 18 yo nerves. ;)
Does Heiko really have a moustache??
