Day 13, Lazy

[fabrisse]

I have spent most of the day in bed reading two mysteries and a book about the production of The Wicker Man.

From this, I have come up with the following poll. More will be explained later.

[Poll #1934440]

I noticed your city selection in the poll was identical to mine except for Tulsa, which I put in the Midwest and you didn't.

I waffled over that one.

Where do you think Tulsa belongs? South? West? Other? Is eastern OK in the Midwest and western OK in the West? Is any of it in the South? Where do Oklahomans put themselves, regionally speaking? *curious*

I live in Tulsa and we are the Southwest. Definitely not Midwest.

Thank you! I am enlightened. :-)

BTW, I am incredibly fond of Oklahomans, as a whole. When I was doing software help desk work, my very favorite clients were from Oklahoma (and Canada), a pattern that was unexpected but remarkably consistent, over a number of years. I still smile with great affection when I hear an OK accent.

That's nice to hear!

We do have the Southern Hospitality thing going on, to some extent.

The state has a strange and sad history and that kind of carved it away from its neighbors, and we are a bunch of people from elsewhere (except for the Native Americans), but we have a lot of Southern customs for sure.
