Miscommunication

When I 1st met my husband he was flaco! (skinny)  After years of my good cooking he has put on some weight.  He's still kind of flaco in my book, but let's just say I have something to hold on to now.

So after eating a filling dinner the other night, hubby and I were standing in the kitchen.
He sat on the window sill and pulled me in for a good hug!
I said, "Be careful! Don't break the window sill!"
He replied, "Ok ballena ( spanish for whale)"
I shouted, "WHAT?"
He quickly defended his self, "You just called me a SEAL (.... and started to bark and clap his hands)
I said, "I didn't call you a seal!  I said don't break the window sill..... as in... where you are sitting!"
Hubby, "oops! sorry!"

    He better spring for some flowers over the whale remark. HA! I'm sure he was just trying to stay in the ocean-living mammal family. I'm not one to usually point out errors but I think you meant "sill". With your Georgia accent it probably sounds like seal. Unless hubby was actually sitting on the glass window itself then possibly he could break the pane from its seal around the edges.

      LOL, Rita, I had to go back and correct my mispelling! The post makes more sense that way. Thanks for pointing it out. I'm sure it was due to my southern "twang!"

    Thanks Chantilly! Lots of miscommunication goes on in our household, but it all gets worked out in the end and we are able to laugh.

    Since hubby has been in El Salvador, his English has been getting really choppy. I actually find it quite cute and have fun laughing with him over the phone at his mistakes :)
