Introducing My Blog: Hoity Toity Yankee Redneck Girl

I suppose it was inevitable that I would eventually start my own blog. I love reading the blogs of other people dispite the fact I don't usually have a clue who they are or where they are from. I also don't know if anyone will ever read my random thoughts and opinions, but it doesn't really matter. I'll have fun writing either way. The only reason I started a blog in the first place was to respond to someone else's blog without bothering Mike Davis of Fingerprint inc.. I wandered over to Mike's friend Scott's blog and laughed until tears were running down my cheeks. Mike passed along my compliments the first time, but after a few returns to Scott's blog I felt I should send my compliments sort of in person. So, thank you Mike and Scott!
First, I thought long and hard what to name my blog. Since I started it just to send a compliment to the " Highly Sophistacated Redneck", I knew I wanted the word redneck it the title because I'm really a redneck at heart. It also pays homage to one of my favorite chickflicks, Sweet Home Alabama. I am a somewhat prissy gal and my southern cousins never let me forget that no matter how nice I am, I'm still a damn yankee. Oh well, some things just can't be changed no matter how many fried dill pickles you eat. I don't think they ever really accepted me as kin until they came north and found out that the northerners actually do know how to have fun. Or it could be that they just came north and had a little too much Yoga Flats punch, especially when they tried drinking it out of an old workboot. Ah, those were the days!

    Congrats on starting the blog! I've found that it has sharpened my writing skills tremendously, and I ALREADY wrote every day as my job dictates. I'm sure you're going to have a good time, and I'll be lingering around here checking things out!
