    Fun quiz. I'd never even heard of some of the words on the quiz. My results are up on my blog.

    I'm 80% General American, which I think is a direct result of the whole California thing. Has Paige been living under a rock? Or in the same state forever?

    No I haven't been living under a rock! Sheesh. I've been living in the Pacific Northwest where I've never heard of things like "Devil's Night", "Micheifnight" or "The Devil Beating His Wife." When it's sunny and raining in Washington, it's called sunshine and we all go outside and do a happy dance.
