About Me
- Laura(southernxyl)
- e-mail me southernxyl at hotmail dot com I am Laura, southernxyl. Where does "southernxyl" come from? First of all, I am from Mississippi and I've lived in the South since I graduated from college. When I was a kid my brother was a ham radio operator. I learned some of the shorthand expressions hams used to save tapping that key. One was "yl", for "young lady" (girl) and one was "xyl" for "ex-young lady" (woman). So I am a southern ex-young lady. I live with R, my husband of 30 years, and two cats.

I would have ACED this test! No doubt about it!
Well, sure, Monnie.
This is about people who just sit back and let whatever info the media feel like parceling out, wash over them. They don't dig in or drill down or ask any questions. I don't have a problem with people disagreeing with me or drawing different conclusions from the same data, but dang. The chick who thought the Republicans must be in control of Congress because the President is a Republican - how can she be such a dingbat? And her vote counts equally with yours or mine.
Dingbats are the norm. Folks like you and me? ESPECIAL!
I'm cool with that.
Have I told you how much I missed you? Like...this election took you away but I'm soooooooooooooooo glad you're back cuz I really, REALLY missed you.
Like...REALLY. Just because our politics aren't the same doesn't mean there is not REAL, GENUINE affection. I miss you kiddo and am eager to know how you're doing. As always, IRREGARDLESS (that's my fave non-word word...ROFL!) of your stance on stem cell research :).
Love,
Monnie
You are so sweet. Thanks for that.
