I’m so
glad you offered to come along on this road trip
for moral support, Kate.
* moral support: helping one emotionally
with encouragement, love, etc.
ex> I accompanied my sister to her
medical appointment for moral support.
You have nothing to worry about,
Michelle. Once they hear you play, you’ll be in like Flynn.
* in like Flynn: quickly accepted or successful
ex> I told the other team members I had
a van, and I was in like Flynn.
Thanks for saying that, but you can
never really be certain about what they’re looking for. Sometimes it’s just the
luck of the draw.
* luck of the draw: the result of chance;
something one cannot control
ex> I was born with bad eyesight, but I
guess that’s the luck of the draw.
Speaking of luck, that sign says there’s
a rest area comping up. What a lifesaver!
* lifesaver: something or someone that
saves one from difficulty or danger.
ex> Fiona was a lifesaver, showing up just when I really needed help.
No kidding! I could use a little break
to freshen up. Should we get
something to eat?
* freshen up: to clean oneself or change
clothes in order to feel better
ex> She said she’d need about 30 minutes
to freshen up before dinner.
That would be a godsend. I didn’t have much for breakfast today.
* godsend: something or someone that
provides great and/or unexpected relief
ex> Finding that cash in the bottom of
my purse was a godsend.
