We have differences in lanquage here in Iowa even between the generations. I worked as a nurse's aide and in a conversation to another older aid and a patient same age as the other aid I made the comment that I was diddling around while I waited to come to work. Meaning I was killing time just doing this and that. They both laughed and said that had a whole other meaning "wink" "wink": when they were young!
