First let me state for the record that I am not a Yankee. I am "mid-Atlantic" as Kathryn I have termed. We also say "Annapolis!" when toasting our wine just to drive John and Jeff crazy but that is besides the point!! John has taken to calling Kathryn the "cranky Yankee" which Jeff just thinks is the greatest thing HE HAS EVER HEARD! What is a person of "mid-Atlantic" statue? We are the best of both worlds!! We are part Yankee/part southern!
Anyway, my best friend and I somehow, some way both have left our Annapolis roots (after never dating Mids) to end up with two pilots in the Navy and Air Force both from Atlanta, GA. As I said we hear on a daily basis what southern gentlemen they are and how we were "townies", as if people try to get "saved" from Annapolis! They have watched Officer and a Gentlemen one too many times! Well . . . imgaine my delight when I saw that the next installment of Real Housewives was based in Atlanta. That's Hot-lanta for the rest of you!!!! Lets just say the Real Housewives don't so much portray the Atlanta Jeff tries to convince me he was raised in!! It portrays Atlanta as the "Black Hollywood" (their words not mine) and is an hour of cat fighting, gossip, greed, and over the top one liners and bad hair extensions. So . . . obvi it is like the best thing to ever happen to me!!!!!!!! I can't get enough and one of the characters (NeNe) and I are best friends she just doesn't know it yet! I have taken to using her one liners like 30 times a day. Including but not limited too, "ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Lord!", "They done left me chilly", and "I ain't afraid to put her back in her place, KONCK" (this one includes a hand gesture like your inserting something in place). WATCH IT, TIVO IT, DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO or be removed from my circle of friends!
