A bit of clarification
This was probably the best conversation I've overheard from the driver's seat of my car. Naomi had mis-used the word "used", like "I'm used to eating that." Leah, being the older and wiser sister, gave Naomi a grammar lesson.
L- That's not the right way to use that word Naomi. If you are used to something it's like this. I am used to being around white people. I am not used to being around black people. So I am comfortable around white people and I get a little nervous around black people.
What?!?! I think this quaint little town needs a bit of diversity!
