Today I'm lugging my groceries up my step and I can hear someone jostling the door from the other side and I step aside to make sure I don't get whacked by the door. Out comes some guy I haven't seen before acting like he lives there. I live in a 4 apt complex so I know all the other tenants and granted he could have been a friend of someones but he makes a comment about having just moved in, which makes him my across the hall neighbor. In an effort to be welcoming I make some chit chat...oh welcome, when did you move in, bla, bla, bla. Internally I'm just hoping he's not a psycho as the last tenants and I had become friends and I was sad they left. So I ask the question: Did you just move to San Diego or move from somewhere within San Diego?
Him: Oh San Diego...I just moved from No-arth Paaaaaaaaak
Me: Blink...blink...blink
To myself: did this guy just BUST out a boston accent??? Am I going crazy? My puzzled look caused him to interject:
Him: But i'm from Baaastaaan originally.
AKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK I can't get away!! Those crazy Bostonians are following me around!! Way.Too. Funny...now I can say "wicked" all I want to my neighbor and he will understand. I wonder if he's a crazy Red Sox fan ...and baseball season just started...yikes.
be sure to heckle the accent on a daily basis

He was a bartender I knew down at the Barking Crab on the wharf.

ReplyDeleteAt first I was scared because I was like "oh my god she ran into some crazy guy trying to break in" and then I realized it was all good. :)
Good grief. There is nothing wrong with people from Boston. And no, we do not say BAHHHHHSTON! Unbelievable.
