Mornin' y'all...
Yeah, I'm up "already". 'Course, I went to bed at around 8p.
Been up about an hour or so and ain't done shit, except sit here and read, laugh and drop a comment at Veloci-Darlin's. He's got a post up about accents and such and Jeezus, do they have 'em around here. I'm usually asked if I'm from "down South" and I do love that. And, I've always heard Philly people mangle vowel sounds, especially the "o"'s. But, here lately, at work... Lord. We don't have "baaaagels" at this restaurant. Nope. We have "beggles".Ya know those weasel-like animals that people have as pets? "Furrets".
And, this stupid friggin' football team? The Iggles. God save me, ya know? Now, ya just know that today, while I'm there, I'm gonna be listening for more of this stuff. They have a language allll their own. Be fun to do a "Philly-isms" list.
IF I can continue to crack the code, that is... *lmao* Anyway...
I need to get moving here, or having gotten up 5 hours "early" will have been for naught. Between now and about 7:30a, I want to straighten up the house, do the dishes, get a load or two of laundry done and get a shower.
I think I'll make it... if I shut the hell up and get started. Have as good a day as ya can, everybody. Peace
