I do this too!! And when I went to Clemson people asked me why I put an L in both, when I'd never noticed it before in my life because everyone where I live does it. Southerners pronounce it more like "bowth", which sounds really weird to me; my Georgian boyfriend and I have gotten in bolth versus bowth arguments before. My mom and I also once had a solid minute during a car ride of trying to pronounce both with no L in it, and we ended up sounding wicked silly.
In short, it's not just you!
