I must look official or something. One lady asked me carry her bag of lawn mulch for her!<BR/><BR/>3. Ditto shorts and parka in So Cal.<BR/><BR/>4. If your town has an equal number of bars and churches, it's probably Dallas (lived there, too)<BR/><BR/>5. I have lots of conversations with wrong numbers, either they dialed me or I dialed them... this drives Hubby up the wall!<BR/><BR/>6. So Californians also measure distances in time units, as in, "If you go at 1 pm, it's only 20 minutes, but if you go at 5, it'll be three hours!"<BR/><BR/>7. We switch from heat to A/C to heat in one day, too, although sometimes I use the A/C just to clear out the humidity caused by a van full of teenagers.<BR/><BR/>8. Our neighbor threw a party to celebrate his new gazebo.<BR/><BR/>9. We find 55 degrees to be "a freakin' blizzard."Ballpoint Wrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01052642068447293589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15462954.post-1145331752505200512006-04-17T23:42:00.000-04:002006-04-17T23:42:00.000-04:00Yikes...now I live in the South...who knew!LOLOLOL...Yikes...now I live in the South...who knew!<BR/><BR/>LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL<BR/><BR/>I never thought I'd be a Southerner...but I know you won't be if you have breath in your body.

The last three Halloweens here, my kids tore off their costumes and begged for ice-cream and cold water!<BR/><BR/>Love the art, of course. AWESOME!M. C.
