The next conversation I had with Eric was over Skype. We talked about different neighborhoods in
Tallahassee and where he and his wife might enjoy living. He had a very long day at work, so we only
talked for about thirty minutes. I
figured that before he went back to the Ivory Coast, I would give him one last
quiz on idioms. It had been a little
while since we learned these, but Eric is one smart cookie. He had his idiom meanings down pat. He had a little bit harder time using them in
using them in sentences, but it was a perfect opportunity to practice them and
I used “the rule of seven.” I asked him
to come up with seven different sentences for each idiom. To be honest, it kind of turned into a game
and we had a lot of fun. We signed off with a few quips using idioms in funny
ways.
