Two other things I've only heard here in Carolina:
"Plug up" your cell phone...I plug my cell phone IN
"Call out" from work....when I'm not going to be at work, I "Call in" to work.
Is this one of those 'pop' or 'soda' things???

I also plug IN my cell phone-- you plug UP a leak (or a toilet!)
I also call IN to work, I calling OUT when i am trying to pick up an outside line from the office.
The "where do you stay" thing- I agree, it seems to be a temporary arrangement. I LIVE at 123 main street.
And the live/stay thing (around here) is more of a suburb vs. inner city thing.
