yeah – miami might be south of the mason dixon – but it ain’t south
bless your heart
sometimes more than other i’m very proud of my southern roots – hmmm maybe it is time to pull out that picture of my great-great – great(?) grand daddy – you know, the one that fought in the war of northern aggression
After dating Suth’ners for many years (oh, the benefits of living in a military town!), and growing up with Kentucky hillbillies, you’d be surprised at how South I can be. Or perhaps it’s because Cleveland is really the South of the North… I dunno.
I dunno. Just know that when I moved to Jay’s hosting, everything went fubar. I tried to delete them all and they stuck around, probably because they’re still part of my cpanel(?)
You know what? We never say, “Is my hair too big?” Southern women NEVER say that.
The other thing we say, in real southern accent is, “Someone lied to her…” in reference to what a woman may be wearing, thinking she looks like all that and a bag of chips, when in reality she looks like crap.
Oh. And they should have had one of them with a Sprite, a Coke, and an Orange cola and they would say, “What kind of Coke do you want?”
Yeah, the Southern Woman is the ultimate in 80s hair. The bouffant hairdo reigns if you’re over a certain age and it’s just big if you’re under it.
And women in the South… we don’t go gray. We go blonde. I tell people all the time, “You can tell Southern women when they’re over 40, because they go blonde. Only children under 12 are naturally blonde.”
And I also tell my friends I’d NEVER color my hair if I grayed. But I never said I’d never bleach it…
I never noticed that until a yankee visited us in Houston and asked why all the women’s hair “look like straw”. Took me a moment to put the hard water and dye jobs together…
Can I go home now?

No, it’s ain’t the south.
Well, bless your heart!

P.S. I’m really bummed that none of my smilies work on my site. Yours are just as cute as a bug in a rug, Pam
Wonder what happened to yours?

Y’all recognize some of this? Bless your heart!
Oh Dear Lord…
That was music to my ears… Unlike the brayings of those Jersey girls…

Yep, it’s all coke!
I have heard southern women talk about big hair but only if it gets Suzanne Sugarbaker pageant big.

My hair looks like straw depending on the day. And humidity level
Mine does too!
