RIO!!! What a beautiful and romantic story! And man - - isn't THAT a ring!!
Also, caught sounds like ought and cot sounds like got. I pronounce Aunt sometimes like ant and sometimes like caught. What does THAT mean?
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Okay, I took the test and came up 66% southern. They say that's a definitive Dixie score.
Weird.

I get 70. That's coke, bag and y'all for you.
Side effect to driving 250 miles in one day? I'm jittery. And exhausted. So I had cheese and crackers for dinner. Anyone want the oreos?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Am I allowed to pack up the cats, Lorne, my laptop, and a few other odds and ends and just leave everything else here?
That really does seem like the best solution.

And then torch the place? oh wait. no.
Dialectically, I'm 47% yankee. though most my answers were pure midwest. Except for pop.

I don't even have boxes yet, unless you count the ones I never unpacked from my last move.
Right now I'm working more on my give away pile.

I'm watching Trading Spaces: Through the Roof. They've had each of the teams pick three designers and a carpenter. They haven't yet said which design team is working on which house.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Pretty ring, Rio! Congrats!
I just spent twelve hours going to a bridal shower that was just lunch. Also there was a small car accident, but everything was OK -- the car just got scratched. And the driver had a small rage blackout, but got over it relatively quickly.

What is even happening?
I think for me, the caught/cot difference has less to do with the vowel sound, and more to do with emphasis--like my tongue hits different spots in my mouth. I say "cot" more softly than "caught"--I think.
Oh, Jesse, I'm glad you weren't hurt in the car wreck. No bridal shower should take 12 hours. Oy.
Did you find out what's up with your aunt?
