Damn Yankee - right here!
I live in Florida, but there are just some things that people say down here that really sound southern. (I grew up in California and New York). My name, for instance. My real name is Shannon, but people down here say the "a" like the "a" in "an" and I say it like the "a" in "apple." Which is why I go by Shae, which is pretty hard to mispronounce! My friends say I have a distinct northern accent, and sometimes the New Yorker in me busts out with some "cawfee" and "New Yawk" action.
