A semi-regular update of the life of a little American girl trying to drive on the other side of the road on the other side of the world

Word of the day--
Today's word is SCUNDERED. Scundered: to be extremely embarrassed. I 'm scundered. (apparently you would not say why you are embarrassed, but you can also be scundered for others.) Hopefully you are not scundered when you try to use this in your next conversation.
scundered, eh? I like how that sounds. Of course, I doubt most of the troglodytes who live here would understand the word "embarassed" much less "scundered." Oh well. I hope you are not often scundered, Steph.
Scundered...? For whatever reason I am linking this word to pirate vocabulary... Probably a mix of "scuttle" and "by thunders!" I'm picturing Black Beard bellowing "Yaaarrrr, Cap'n Hook be quite scundered when 'e tried ta wipe the gull squat from 'e's eye... Now 'e has ta wear dat patch."
Ummmm... ahoy Steph! I'm a little scundered that I recognize "Genie" from Pee-wee's Playhouse.
hey steph, it's erin! so happy to finally know how things are going for you...i was beginning to wonder if this trek to ireland was going to be your tactic to get rid of me. I couldn't help but laugh as i read all your blogs...that's my stephie. I can just see you driving now...and i'm still deciding on the name of your store but i might not post it here, i'll share that with you when we can talk on skype!! keep pushing on girl, doing great as we expected.
Hey Adam.. up for a first grade pirate joke... I know that you are.... What is a pirates favorite subject in school? ........................Arrrrrt! He he he.
