Mind Games
As most are aware by now, my mother's first language was not English.
While she was visiting a couple of weeks ago, I told her I tried to fix-up one of my girl friends with this really nice guy. Yesterday, my mother asked me about it.
This is what she said: "Did they knock it off?"
Even after all these years, she still manages to stun me to silence as my mind scrambles to translate.
I think she meant: "Did they hit it off?"
