As I was leaving to meet Lynne, My roommate told me that I"d better take some money, but I didn"t listen to him. I thought that Lynne would pay because she had invited me.     I arrived at the restaurant exactly on time. I"d been told that Americans expect you to be on time. Lynne and I sat at a table in the corner of the restaurant and a waitress came and took our order.    The dinner was a great success. I talked a lot about Saudi Arabia and Lynne told me all about herself. After two hours the waitress finally came and asked if we wanted one check or two. Lynne said two.

I pretended to look for something in my pockets and said, "Oh! I forgot my money! Can I call my roommate, please?" The cashier showed me where the phone was and I quickly called my roommate. In a few minutes he arrived with some money, but he couldn"t hide how he felt. He laughed all the way home.     Now, I think it"s funny too, but at that time I was terribly embarrassed.
