I love being "Southern" and I knew right away what "ornery" meant as I've heard it used many many times growing up. The first thing that came to my mind was cantankerous...but I figured that might not help you out too much, so I looked up ornery in Websters, and found the definition listed as "cantankerous". Coming from a family with generations of Georgia farmers, and hill country South Carolinians, the meaning takes on a feeling of someone who is being disagreeable for no good reason... like an ornery ol' mule! In my experience as a lacemaker...it works itself out in those ornery ol' threads that are supposed to be making perfect leaves, but just won't cooperate!
