I'm Currently Feeling:  | sounds like home
A couple of repairmen came in to the office today and one of them is from Austin Texas!! It's his first time in Toronto, and he was quite surprised when I told him that I'm originally from Texas too  |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  He had quite a Texan accent, which made me drop into my Texan accent--which I thought was quite funny. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I do that when I'm around my grandparents who are fluent in hick. I'll drop into it really quickly, where as most of the time I'll speak properly |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Most people don't even detect an accent when speaking to me. But it does show when I'm around other people from Texas, or when I'm tired or sick it gets more noticeable  |
