I somehow believe that if I forget the past, I'll be destined to repeat it. ;)<BR/><BR/>That said, I love sitting somewhere, especially in a coffee shop and people watching/listening.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812573658651401984.post-18575013684352535722008-07-20T17:39:00.000-05:002008-07-20T17:39:00.000-05:00I love accents, too.

I think I even pay better attention to what people with accents say, just because I'm a bit enthralled. ;) <BR/><BR/>I love Panera's Fuji Apple Chicken Salad.

Totally reverted back to my Southern Okie accent after college. <BR/><BR/>Sigh.<BR/><BR/>And when I lived in Boston, it only took a few months before I was saying "park the car" like a native. ;-)Heather Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14474979076092596098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812573658651401984.post-6955371909755115772008-07-20T13:08:00.000-05:002008-07-20T13:08:00.000-05:00I've lived in Georgia since I was six, and I've al...I've lived in Georgia since I was six, and I've always been told I have a neutral accent--not southern at all.<BR/><BR/>My mother has a definite southern belle accent. When she speaks I want to go out on the veranda and sip mint juleps. I have some lady friends who also have a pronounced southern accent. To me, it comes across as classy and charming. Who knows.

I'm from N.Ky and I know people that have different ranges of accents, and it's definitely cool to hear.<BR/><BR/>I must say that I LOVE Panera bread though. Do you go to the one by Borders?<BR/><BR/>-laurenShooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.com
