Accents

My grandma is from Connecticut and she pronounces it "melk". She also says "draw" instead of "drawer".

I've got the very common Southern California accent. I say "dude" and "awesome" way too often. I'm not sure if this is a Southern CA or Northern CA thing, but I picked up "for sure" (or, more often, "fo sho") once I got to college.

I also say "y'all" but that's only after I talk to my family that lives in Texas and I stop saying it after a week or so.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
