For giggles
I know y'all have seen these lists a bajillion times, but this one in particular was so true! This one is "you know you're from Georgia if". I have lived my entire life (minus the past 2 years) 30 minutes south of the Georgia state line, so these are more true for me than any "you know you're from Florida if" list will ever be...
1. You can properly pronounce Chickamauga, DeKalb, Dahlonega, Smyrna, Buena Vista, Valdosta, Hahira, Houston Co., Milan, Okefenokee, and La Fayette.P.S.. Atlanta = ADD-LANNA not AT-LANT-A.
2. You think people who complain about the heat in their states are sissies.
3. You know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade.
4. You think everyone from a Yankee-state has an accent.
5. You measure distance in minutes.
6. You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit. Don't people everywhere do that?
7. You know cowpies are not made of beef.
8. Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date. More than 1. I actually know someone who planned their wedding on the 1st home Gator football game day and it caused a bit of a family fued.
9. You know someone who has a belt buckle bigger than your fist. Again...more than 1.
10. Almost everyone you know is either Baptist or Methodist.
11. A Mercedes Benz isn't a status symbol. A Chevy Silverado Extended Bed Crew Cab is.
12. You know everything goes better with Ranch dressing.
13. You learned how to shoot a gun before you learned how to multiply.
14. Ironically, you only crave Chik-Fil-A and alcohol on Sundays..when neither are sold. I ALWAYS crave the Chick on Sunday!
15. The directions to your house include "turn off the paved road." (including my parents) :-)
16. "YALL" is a word.
17. You call it a cold Christmas if you don't break out in a sweat in your new sweater. LOL. The gospel truth. This past Christmas, it was 75 degrees.
18. When a single snowflake falls, the entire state shuts down, even if it doesn't stick. The radio and TV news will make snowstorm reports every 10 minutes and the grocery store will be completely sold out of bread, milk, bottled water, toilet paper, and beer. Ehh, moreso with hurricanes.
19. You know the difference between a hillbilly, a redneck, and a Southerner.
20. You understand that at least once a year your car will turn yellow with pollen. Solid yellow.
21. You know at least one Bubba, and maybe a few guys named Bo. No Bubba's, but I do know a couple Bo's, a Boo, and a Snuffy. :-)
22. You say "tuna fish sandwich." (not tuna sandwich)
23. Braves=good. Yankees=bad. Mets=LOATH
24.You love sweet tea, mashed potatoes, biscuits, and all Southern comfort food...and Southern comfort.
25.You use the heater in the mornin and AC in the afternoon during the "winter" season. Practically every day.
26. You might have heard of people finding their lost boat in a lake that has dried up recently. Case in point- here is what Lake Jackson in Tallahassee looks like on the map...
...and here's what it ooks like in person (the WHOLE thing)...
27. You know the general population in the state will be stocking up on ammo and guns due to the new President.
28. You say "mash" instead of "push", for example...buttons
29. Savannah is The place to go to in the state for St. Patty's Day
30.You are 100% Georgian if you have ever had this conversation:
"You wanna coke?"
"Yeah."
"What kind?"
"Dr Pepper"

A little bit of random
1. I kind of expected to hear something yesterday or today about the job. Still waiting. Not very hopeful at this point.
2. I got to see an old friend/roommate this weekend. She, her 10 month old boy, her mom, and her neice made a trip from Florida up to Pittsburgh to visit family. Since they had a couple little ones with them they knew they wanted to break the trip up and spend the night somewhere. So she decided to spend the night in Raleigh. We all went out to eat and hung out for a couple hours. It felt like old times. Made me realize how much I missed her friendship too!
3. Dane was at the gym yesterday lifting and something in his shoulder popped. :-/ It hurts to even lift his arm, so keep him in your thoughts. If it doesn't start feeling better before next week he'll go get an xray.
4. In about a week, my sis in law will be going in for her big ultrasound. Pray for a girl. They are stealing my boy name after I had made it known. Yes, I know I am not with child, but when this does happen, I'm sure it'll be a boy. Dane's family just doesn't make girls. :-)
