Native Iowan Co-worker: “Hey…remember that one fair? 4-H had a booth there and they had a display of volunteer vests throughout the years. I thought seeing that was neat.”
Me: “Ah! That does sound neat….” *nods in agreement* “…too bad I missed it…”
Native Iowan Co-worker: “…..”
Native Iowan Co-worker: *chuckles* “…do you even know what 4-H is? (you’re such a city girl and all; you don’t even know what a barn is)”
Me: “Of course I know what 4-H is! I was watching the Millionaire’s Club and…”
Other co-worker: *raises eyebrow* “You mean, the Millionaire Matchmaker??”
Me: “Yea! That! Well, anyway, there’s this one conservative Midwest guy who owned a farm and they were trying to set him up with someone. So, he went to L.A. and one of the girls they picked out was involved in 4-H. I had to look up what 4-H was then. So, yes – I do know what a 4-H is.”
Native Iowan Co-worker: “….”
