Translation Goof

I thought some of you would appreciate this slip up in translation...

Tonight, I called our bus driver to ask him to pick our team up at 7am to pack our bags. Instead of saying the word for suitcases, "maletas" , I said "muletas".

In essence, I asked him to come at 7am to pack our crutches, not our suitcases.

After I ended my conversation, my pareja, Rachel, quickly corrected me. :D

I'm hoping this isn't some sort of bad omen or something...
