My life as of the last two years.

UPSTATE NEW YORK, THAT IS:

1. Your idea of a traffic jam is 10 cars waiting to pass a tractor on the highway

2. "Vacation" means going to Syracuse for the weekend

3. You measure distance in hours

4. You know several people who have hit deer more than once

5. You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day

6. You stay in your house most of the summer because you aren't used to the heat

7. You drive at 55 mph through 10 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching

8. You see people wearing hunting clothes at social events

9. You install security lights on your house and garage but leave both unlocked

10. One of your neighbors constantly has bonfires

11. You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend knows how to use them

12. There are 7 empty cars running in the parking lot at the supermarket at any given time

13. Your idea of a huge party is one with lots of cheap beer and some people you go to school with

14. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled in with snow

15. You think sexy lingerie is silk pajamas from wal-mart

16. You know 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, cold, construction

17. It takes you 2 hours to go to the store for one item even when you're in a rush because you have to stop and talk to everyone in town

18. At least 6 people that you see a day have beards and stains on the front of their shirt

19. Cows are just part of the scenery

20. You or someone you know has a car that sounds like a big truck and can barely make it 20 miles yet no one says anything about it.

21. You can drive an ATV or a snowmobile better than a car.

22. The loud explosions heard in the distance and the low flying planes are normal.

*sigh* Scares me that it's true.

I hit the beach four days in a row back home. Record. I've been making a lot of money. I bought a plant, but I think it's dying. On Saturday I'm going to a concert. Joy and I are throwing a wine party soon at her house while her parents are gone. I need to get my student visa. I'll be 21 in less than two months. A new pen pal and I have started to write to each other. Last night Winna cooked us dinner and we played uno outside untl the bugs were unbearable.
