Does anyone actually know what a sticky wicket it? I think it's something naughty...I just heard it on West Wing, so you know...Um...not a lot to report...I hope that Mo's having fun in Iowa. My aunt just came back from Iowa today. She flies home every weekend to see Hunter and my uncle. Oh, I'm hungry ( Read more... )

Oh, sorry Mo. Yeah, I did, but the thing is I can't call you during the daytime because I'm way over minutes on my cell-phone. so I can call you at night, on the weekends, or if you had a Sprint phone, which i don't think you do.

Do you know what a sticky wicket is?

I thought a sticky wicket was another term for a problem. Like...

"That puts us in a bit of a sticky wicket."

But maybe I'm mistaken.

Yeah, it is. I looked it up at www.usingenglish.com because I'm a dork like that.

It said, and I quote:

"If you are on a sticky wicket, you are in a difficult situation."

It's from British English
