Comments on: Toto, We’re Not in the North Anymore http://jendisjournal.com/2009/02/10/toto-were-not-in-the-north-anymore/ Wit & Wisdom from my Journey through Womanhood Tue, 22 May 2012 16:42:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Kara S http://jendisjournal.com/2009/02/10/toto-were-not-in-the-north-anymore/comment-page-1/#comment-2981 Kara S Mon, 16 Feb 2009 14:39:11 +0000 http://jendisjournal.com/?p=1905#comment-2981 LOL Loved reading this post. When I moved to W.Va., I got sick of being called 'honey' by total strangers! Now, almost 5 years later, it doesn't even phase me. I don't *think* I call people 'honey.' I totally relate to the people, sometimes strangers, stopping to talk too. I've had to "rescue" my husband and/or my father-in-law on more than one occasion from people that just stop to chat. If they're driving by your house and see you outside, they stop and *might* leave after an hour or so. LOL Oh, and if a cashier just says hi and your total is $x.xx, now we think she's had a bad day. It's weird how the culture is soooo different than Pennsylvania. <abbr><em>Kara Ss last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Ramblings-n-writings/~3/538257039/review-cry-in-night-by-colleen-coble.html">Review: A Cry in the Night by Colleen Coble</a></em></abbr> LOL Loved reading this post.

Well, except the part that you went to your first Sonic - can't say I've done that yet:D. People in the North tend to go out of their way not to talk to you, so it is a strange thing to go South (or to the Mid-West) and have people talking up a storm. But I always enjoy it ~ once I got over the shock someone is talking to me;). <abbr><em>Annes last blog post..<a href="http://annehammond.blogspot.com/2009/02/wfmw-store-in-closet.html">WFMW: The Store In The Closet.</a></em></abbr> Wow, I can totally relate to this post!

Oh, honey, bless your heart... :-) Sonic is definitely a staple in the south. I remember, back when I used to be a Northerner, that anytime we'd venture south, we'd stop at the first Sonic & get a cherry limeade. It's just what you do. Besides, everyone in the south knows that Sonic has the best ice on the planet. It's true. Ask any southerner. :-) <abbr><em>Jenis last blog post..<a href="http://jeniallen.blogspot.com/2009/02/little-ham-and-tender-chin.html">A Little Ham, and a Tender Chin</a></em></abbr> Did you just casually say, “Went to my first Sonic today”?

This made me giggle ;-) I bet I honey'd you at least once this weekend. It is such a Southern 'thang' and a part of life. I don't even think about it. I can't wait to hear the rest of your thoughts on BlissDom!! Hee hee hee. This made me giggle ;-)
