how to tell you've been away from the states too long
- you look to the right before stepping out into the street, and are almost hit by a car approaching from the left
- you say 'sorry' instead of 'excuse me' when you need someone to move aside so you can get by
- the money seems a little strange to you; like, it's okay that it's all the same color, but you find it frustrating that it's all the same size
- you find a medium-sized moderately upmarket grocery store (dcfolk and those further south, think harris teeter) totally bewildering in terms of size and selection
