Bit by bit, my Spanish gets better...

During the last couple of weeks, Robi has asked me a couple of times if I'm a little "constipado." I was always a little bit surprised when she asked me this, as I thought the meaning was a little private. Probably just a cultural difference, I thought; Robi is pretty concerned about my well-being.

Today I finally realized that "constipado" refers to being stuffed up in the head, as I've had a bit of a cold recently. Boy was I relieved...
