You know Savannah is haunted, yes? Supposedly the most haunted city in the US, depending on who you believe. There is a Haunted Pub Crawl that's pretty cool. I think it's the place where the cockroaches (big ones) are all over the place as soon as it gets dark.

If I were you and you're going to spend money on a bus ticket for part of your journey, I'd do it for the first leg. It's pretty cool up north this time of year, although it has been unseasonably warm so far. I never recommend hitching, but if you're going to do it, at least it's warmer south of the Mason-Dixon.

I want to move to South Carolina, but I can't talk anyone into going with me and my squish doesn't want me to try and make new friends. I like the 1 I've got, don't want a new one (irl).

Sorry, I'm manic-rambling again. At least the first 2 mini-paragraphs are relevant.

Sh!t! I just ruined the ending for you then!

Haha, might work on some white men but a black guy is not too affected by the level of crazy in your head if they like the curve of your body.

Well, if the job doesn't work out, I should at least have enough money to feed myself. Maybe Plan C could be for me to hang out with you for the first month in SC until you make some new friends.

You're not homicidally raping beating brutally crazy are you wahoo?

Don't worry about the ending mr sd. Somebody else gave it away years ago.

I was in a slightly scary situation like that once. I started ranting loudly about the level of crazy the guy's wife would show him if she could see him and have you no shame and handflapping indignation and blah blah. His eyes went and he ran. I mean literally ran. LMAO

Come to think of it, that was one of my list of misadventures in PA. What a fuking place!! I can see why commi's such a crazy fighter. You'd have to be in a place like that. Being there totally threw my expectations. The places I'd heard all the scary stories about weren't half that bad.

cockroaches (big ones)

AAARGHH!!! It's all coming back to me. Bugs! My least favourite thing about the south! The locals stared at me like I was fuked when I chased the ugly critters around with cutlery Ok, I'm taking up bow hunting again. Target practice

You can buy a crossbow without a license in the States, right?

South Carolina is all mountains, isn't it?

Or is that Georgia...

Yeah, no city is a good place but sometimes there is a good place in a city. Ain't the fifties, lock your door. There is a nice city in Georgia where everyone rides around on golf carts, Peachtree City. What a nice name.

You can buy a gun without a license sweetheart.

you saying i'm from PA?
NO ONE EVER TELLS ME ANYTHING!! always the last to know this $#%^..


i'm from VA. the neighborhood i grew up in was #######4. we were the only white people and then the rest were hispanic and black. we all got along with eachother (mostly) pretty well. that's just the little square type section we were in. was a really weird design in that place.. could swear the enighbor was a pedo (mother made sure i kept a good distance and he winked at me a lot..). was just a nasty place. kids a bit down the road were little terrors. didn't get along with ANY of the other girls except for some halfie and she moved after a year. my brother and i and the boys next door were tight, though.

got in a lot of fight with the other girls and did even more running from adults and bigger kids. it wasn't even bad though. just really dirty. kids will be kids all it is.



and there is SUCH a bug problem in my house! cave crickets, atleast 2 different kinds of roaches, spiders, and other beetle/bug things. all you need is a cat or boot. both would be best in case the cat doesn't want to get up (or you don't). cats are magical creatures..

That's my favorite avatar of yours commi.

I got a bug problem, but it's probably nowhere near as diverse as yours. I don't even know what kind of bugs they are tbh...

I can't believe you are all Americans... Southerners with such hospitality to boot.

keep your phones, mp3s, wallets, and stuff like that deep and secure somewhere in your purse/bag. the cheaper $#%^ you don't mind losing so much near the outside and in smaller outer pockets (like gum and $#%^.). that way it's more likely you'll notice something when someone tries to steal it. keep a good grip on your bag and be aware of your surrounding.
kids are crafty. you'd be surprised how little people notice when they're walking around.. i watched one of my friends go into someones bag and take their ipod without them noticing just walking down the street.

oh, no glove no love. <--- remember dis wise wordz.

@Mr. O. - LOLOLOL. hospitality? it's mostly #######4 and we giggle to ourselves when the others come down to visit. they don't understand it. "bless her heart" is a major diss half of the time. sometimes it's genuine (like if they're dead or something serious) but i've mostly heard it as a diss. then a friendly little giggle follows. they just smile and go with it. so cute.
VA isn't all that southern, though. atleast not at the coast. probably because it's a big military community over here.
but DAMN. gotta love the feisty/sassy old ladies here.

these are cave crickets. then there are brown and reddish roaches all over the place. depending on the time of year there can be some scary as ###$ looking bugs outside, though..
