Sometimes I feel like such a dum-dum when I talk to her. We met online about a year ago and sometimes I forget that she lives across the pond. I'm grateful that she hasn't cut me off because of my small world view. She is my first friend that was born, raised and lives in a different country.
Anyway, as we were conversing I asked her what her plans were for the 4th of July. She said was going to work and that she wasn't doing anything special. My melon head was like what you're going to work?! I hope you get double pay for the holiday. She then said, "girl, the 4th is American independence" I did the biggest FACEPALM. I then apologized profusely for my ignorance.
We laughed about it.
But for real, at my ripe age I should know this.
Unfortunately, this would not be the only time I’ve said some ignorant things lol. Thankfully she is very graceful when she corrects me.
TL;DR
I asked my English friend what she was going for the 4th of July. Although we laughed about it, I felt stupid when she corrected me.
