I grew up 7 miles north of the Mason Dixon line. The only South I know was "West Virginia's legal drinking age is 18, Pennsylvania's is 21, for god's sake, be home before dark on Friday and Saturday night or stay away from the border road."
My Appalchian region is hypocrites in the church pews, fish fries at the Grange, deer in the backyard, strangers who hug you because "you must be Vada's grandbaby!", the WCTU (Women's Christian Temperance Union), people who were proud the'd never set foot outside the county, red dog gravel roads, the dust hanging in the air behind the car as you drove over the ridge, the darkness in the folds of the hills, the streams orange with the runoff from the mines, bodies of water that no one bothered to name except on land deeds--leaving, then going back, and realizing you miss the color of real green more than the people.
Emily I'm still available to help. I won't take your stinkin' money, but I'll be bringing Emmett and if you pay him he'll be very happy. (He'll work pretty cheap too.)
Do you want to come over to the Zmayhemi tonight?
Couldn't this get LESS complicated rather than MORE? Salvation Army won't take my furniture (Goodwill wouldn't even be able to come until next week), and my plan for my nearly-new futon fell through. Maybe I just have to stay here?
do you have Freecycle? I got rid of a LOT of stuff that way. Also, try Craigslist "free" section.

I was just about to suggest this. I had an old sofa that no one would take (either because I have a cat or because it was on a second floor). I posted it for free on Craigslist. Gone in a few hours.
I will not flip out like a mammal.
I won't, I won't, I won't.
I am not! At least not as of yet, but you're more than welcome to book me.
I'll have to check the dates and exact location.
Definately this. Playtime activities are much dependant on location.
Consider yourself booked. I'm assuming you work for liquor?
Here's the scoop: The conference runs June 24-26, 2008 and it's at the Hilton Anatole. I should be available for playtime on the 24th and the 26th, and depending on various factors that won't make themselves known until we're closer to the date, the 27th.
Maria, playing with Daisy in Dallas is the best!
I'm quite looking forward to it. You know, if you didn't have to go gallavanting off to upstate New York, I could have played with you. Orlando would have been more tolerable if I would have gotten some Laura time.
I will not flip out like a mammal.
Tenant, boss, or family? Regardless, whomever it is is an asshat at the moment.
If you do flip out, all I know is that you were here with me, in DC, at the time.
Oh, misunderstanding re: payroll between me and our payroll company and then the company I'm supposed to make a payment to not accepting Money Gram online payments.
