Top Ten Favorite Quotes...

10. Uncle ji: "For your Papa...Time is money...but for me...I have government job, so ehhh."
(He tends to only run errands with us when he's "at work")

9. So before we got sick, everyone said the water was fine...
AFTER we got sick and bought an aguaguard this is what uncle ji said, " You should only drink water from an aguaguard."
Us: "Yes uncle but we drink water from your house and you don't have an aquaguard."
PAUSE....
Uncle ji "yes, well... you should not take that either..."

8. Beki's mama: "April, what are you doing out there? are you playing with that bubble wrap or something??"
Me: "No, its just the ants in the door"

7. We met a guy at a hotel with a video camera who was videoing for his group and he told us.."ok! you can shoot yourself now!!" (meaning we can start talking, he's videoing now)

6. "Yes yes, in 4 years when i retire from this BSNL (his gov't job at the phone company) i will take rest and then visit to this Texas and Florida and see to the marriage of my Texas child and florida child."

5. Beki: "So i learned how to deliver a baby today"
(after reading where there is no doctor)

4. Beki - "THere are so many bugs in our bathroom!"
Me: "well at least you don't notice the black mold"

3. Beki's sister-in-law to beki: "so do you see a lot of cute guys?"
Beki: "Actually, yes i see quite a few and I think 'hey! they're cute' and then they pee on a wall, or scratch their crotch or blow a snot rocket out of their nose...And then i change my mind"

2. Uncle ji "yes yes, indian english and american english is a little different."
Beki: "No! its not different, your grammar is just wrong!"

1. Beki:"I would make a terrible indian wife"
Me: "why?"
Beki: "Because i'd have to stay in the house all day to cook and clean, and look all coy at my wedding...." She wraps her dupatta around her head and says "Do i look coy?"
