I love ...Franny and Indigo's dialogue is great! I love the humor. <br />My oldest daughter says and texts "Psh" for "Pshaw." However, she uses "toasty" not to mean warm, but to mean "irritated." She might say, "after six hours in a car, I started to get a little toasty at my friend for playing the same Ariana Grande songs for the whole drive." I'm not sure how universal this change of expression is, but I know I've heard a few other people use it. I think it's interesting how words and expressions change over the years.Tyrean Martinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356604721537744361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167030264910213419.post-16323302271623043622019-04-09T07:52:57.447-07:002019-04-09T07:52:57.447-07:00She cracks me up (do people still say that?) all t...She cracks me up (do people still say that?) all the time!Gwen Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13132836346305559246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167030264910213419.post-32250091788545401372019-04-09T07:52:23.159-07:002019-04-09T07:52:23.159-07:00I'm way behind the times on slang too.
