...you're head strong

My visiting teachers came over on Tuesday for their monthly visit. One of them is from Guam and has learned English as a second language. She does very well. As we were visiting she was complemening mee on my independence and saying "you're head strong" and diligent. I stopped her and said I had never had someone complement mee for being head strong. We explained to her that it typically means someone is stubborn.

Thirty was so strange for me. I've really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult. C. S. Lewis

Idaho Woman

It was a busy day at work. I was walking across the court yard to get something off the printer. A group of boys was getting ready to go in the same door I was. One of the boys said they had found a snake. According to them it was in the Library. I didn't really think that much of it until I noticed their staff member holding a small green garden snake in his hand. I am not sure what the boys expected me to do. When I help out my hand to accept the snake from the staff member his comment was..."now that's an Idaho woman."
