Yankee talk...
So I had a seven hour conversation with my cousin last night...I haven't laughed so hard or so long in a REALLY, REALLY long time. And I'm not as homesick anymore. It'd been almost a year since we'd talked and I'm so glad that we did. In the meantime though, there were random things that were brought up and it just amused the hell outta me so I decided to share them with you:
(Chris was looking at Adam's profile on MySpace)
J - "Isn't he the sweetest thing?"
C - "Um..."
J - "Chris. He looks good. Say it."
C - "Okay! He looks good. Damn. I'm just gonna say it because I know I'm not gonna win."
J - "That's right. Just smile and nod. I'm gonna go back and say, 'Adam my cousin thinks your hot.' and then when he's all like, 'Oh what's she like?' I'm just gonna say, 'HE used to play football.'"
C - "You're not right."
(Making fun of the south...Sorry! I'm still a Yankee!)
C - "We won the war. Get over it. We were just better all around."
J - "Yeah, maybe. But hey, at least they get to brag that 'Deliverance' was filmed in Georgia."
(Much laughter ensued.)

J - "So you're gonna come down and stay for a bit and we can ride around Conyers until we piss each other off. Then I'm kicking your ass out of the car in the middle of 138. You'll love it."
C - "Where will I go?"
J - "...You know what? At that point I'd tell you to get back in the car so we can go eat."
J - "I've got a joke for you!"
C - "Oh god."
J - "If hay is for horses...What do gay horses eat?" (It took about 10 minutes to get this out because I couldn't stop laughing.)
C - "I don't know...What?"
J - "Nevermind. I don't wanna say, it's stupid."
C - "..."
J - "..."
C - "Are you going to finish the joke?!"
J - "NO!"
C - "That's fucked up. You're older by exactly one week."
J - "Yeah...I'm better."
C - "One fucking week."
J - "You know what? I just remembered that I was two weeks early."
C - "I KNEW IT!"
C - "I'm gonna make a scene."
J - "At the airport?"
C - "...Maybe in the car..."
J - "What's Sonia's middle name?"
C - "It's...um...Oh crap."
J - "You don't know your own sister's middle name?"
C - "Yes I do! It's...uh..."
J - "You're going to hell."
J - "People from Boston are assholes."
C - "No, people from Mass are assholes."
J - "True."
(Talking about one of those people over 500 lbs. that you see on talk shows)
J - "Everyone thinks I'm a bitch, and do you know why? Because down south you have the classic 'Southern Hospitality.'"
C - "Yeah we don't have that here. We tell it like it is."
J - "EXACTLY! She just needs to STOP EATING! Put the chicken down!"
(Talking about Jerry Springer)
C & J - "STEVE!"
C - "I was driving Steph home and did a complete 360 going around a turn at 20 mph in first gear."
J - "Damn."
C - "Yeah. The roads are bad...We slid into a snowbank. And then she said, 'Wow, most people hit that tree down there.'"
J - "SHE KNEW IT WAS COMING!?"
(Relaying messages between family)
J - "What did she say?"
C - "She said to tell your mom that she said hi. I told her not to lie like that."
C - "Our moms are going to the Carribean on a cruise."
J - "Oh my god are you serious?"
C - "Yeah. I found out and I was like, 'We're going on a cruise in the Carribean?!'"
J - "And?"
C - "She said, 'No. I'M going on a cruise in the Carribean.'"
J - "Nice."
(Talking about how I feel about Adam)
C - "So is it serious this time?"
J - "I've never been so serious about something in my life."
C - "Okay 'cause I remember how it was with Billy and Sonia and I told you it wasn't gonna work. But this guy seems like he's doing nothing but making you better. So that's good."
J - "...Yeah."
C - "You know I think we jinxed you when it came to Billy."
J - "Thanks!"
C - "You're welcome."
J - "I'm serious."
C - "Me too."
I'll post more as they come to mind. I love it!
