bunnyjadwigaSomeday, I hope to move closer to my work.
This will entail moving to New Jersey.
Most of the time, I have become acclimatized to this, and even to the fact that I will not be able to afford moving to the really nice quaint bits. I'll be driving along, and I'll even forget that I'm in New Jersey. (Look, I learned to drive in Lancaster County Pennsylvania. It took me ages to get over the urge to pull over and wait until the cars with New Jersey plates had all passed me.)
And then, I'll have to drive somewhere I don't know, and suddenly, there it'll be again. In big blinky lights. I, it says, AM NOT FROM NEW JERSEY.
It's true. I'm from Central Pennsylvania and before that from North-Western New York State, and it shows in more than my tendency to try to figure out what kind of grain that is growing by the roadside. In the New Jersey Pine Barrens. *shakes head*
