City vs County

I saw this meme on Lissawi's blog. I just had to try it.

How City are You?
I've Drunk Starbucks more than once in my life: Yes
Yes, I used to drink coffee in college. I stopped drinking caffeine about 5 years ago. But, I do get a Starbucks when I travel, yum…

Okay, yes I used to do this as a child. I do it with my husband occasionally.

I shop at AE, A & F, or H co.: No
I’ve tried, but I’m too short for their clothes. I have the hardest time finding anything that fits right. Plus they’re expensive.

I own a lot of dress shirts, but I hate wearing dresses, unless their historical. So I own 2 or 3 dresses that fit in this century.

Guilty as charged! I always have my cell phone and I feel naked without it. Hubby and I text each other throughout the day.

I will wear flip flops whenever I can.

Yes and I love them.

I do have a My Space, but I’m never on it. I’m always on Facebook or Blogger.

I pretty much only drink water. I love it.

I used to be a tom-boy. The girls didn’t like me. I could play war and ninjas with the best of them.

I haven’t found that I need one yet.

I have seen every episode of Laguna Beach: No
Don’t know what that is.

I say "lol" online: Yes
All the time *Blush*

It’s fun and relaxing for me. Especially window shopping.

This was so fun to read! I learned a lot about you that was previously unknown. I didn't know you liked guns! :) I do, too, although I don't have one of my own. Some of my favorite memories with my brothers and dad are going to the sportsmans club and target shooting with them. I don't think I could kill an animal, though, either.
