No, there is absolutely no way you can tell I grew up in the country

Came home after an evening of drinks and dinner with The Pennsylvanian Dutch. Heard this on the radio.

Resonates? Yes to maybe. Good song? Definitely. Which depending on how honest I'm feeling right now may or may not have been followed by...

at which point I had to blast past my house and do several more blocks of driving to belt that gem out in the car.

Cast of characters

The 26th - ex-boyfriend of Violent Offender, former fellow grad student in another field, excellent driver.

Bajabucky - grad school friend who wins the dirtiest mind competition hands down, so named because she loves Baja, now of Alaska.

The Baker - new housemate, baker at Trophy cupcakes, owner of a sweet Rottweiler. So far brings home a dozen cupcakes a week. Uh oh.

The Bucket - former grad student in my program, maker of epic social shenanigans, friend of TheOutofTowner and Flipper.

Flipper - former lab/office-mate who hates dolphins but loves sharks. Mwah ha ha.

Halterwhip - friend of a friend I finally convinced to ditch the middle man (technically, the middleman moved to CO), so named because of a violent childhood fight with her sister in a barn.

Hoeface - friend I met in CA who now lives in the ID. Great party- shopping- snowboarding- buddy.

The Littlest Housemate - daughter of Mutha Clucker, precocious, hilarious, sweet, and smart as a whip.

Lucille Two - new housemate subleasing from Mutha Clucker for a few months. So far about all I know is that she's very nice and likes my dog. Awesome.

The Middle Man - ex-roommate and female grad student, now of CO.

Miss Mountaineer - adorable, cheery (in a non-annoying way somehow) dirty-minded grad school friend, does research in the Sierras.

Monroe - second cousin, 2 months younger than me, who I didn't really know until we lived one floor away in the dorms freshman year. Gets me in a way that only 3.13% blood can.

Mr. Renaissance - tall, dark, handsome man of integrity and many skills

Mutha Clucker - extroverted, counseling housemate. Mother of The Littlest Housemate.

TheOtherSideoftheBed - ex, see TheOutofTowner

TheOutofTowner - old news

The Pennsylvanian Dutch - friend here in the PNW who met The Violent Offender at a random Mountaineers hike.

The Quiet Comedienne - nurse friend here in the city. She's absolutely hilarious, to those who are smart enough to really listen.

Ramalama - grad school friend, the guy you would see at nearly every social event.

Rocky Raccoon - grad school friend. So named because she is there when you need her and my recent discovery that this is my favorite Beatles song. It's a stretch, I know, but she needed a name.

Ruhroh - adorable male grad school friend, named after the way Scooby Doo says 'uh oh' just cause I felt like it. Now of The City by the Bay.

Scoobarella - grad school friend who lives on the coast, general trouble-maker

The Shutterbug - boyfriend of The Violent Offender. Is up for almost anything and will take beautiful photos while there.

Slutbag - cra-cra-cra-crazy friend I met through Hoeface who works for ~~Fox News~~ CNN! She lives on the East Coast, but I still believe she can be peer-pressured to move to the left side.

Tiger - grad school friend, natch, named for her sweet tiger impression

Tina Turnher - former housemate, named for her Karaoke skills and general awesomeness. Now of Texas. Yeehaw!

Violent Offender - sister of Halterwhip, post-doc in a slightly different field (see, I'm diversified), not violent at all (anymore) but you know that rap sheet is hard to shake

The Wanderer - best friend from college, named for her Aquarian propensity to move to another state on a week's notice and the fact that she gets around. Oh, snap!
