…and I should know! Here are a few moments that have shaped who I am today but some of them I could definitely have lived without. (Note – definitely not “commanding” moments here). Try not to spit beer out your nose while laughing.

1. I moved to Boston in a six horse-horse trailer. Uh-huh, that’s right…driving right down Mass. Ave in Cambridge (well, actually my Dad was driving…and this was after college…not for college!). It was like a scene from the freakin’ Beverly Hillbillies. When my new roommates (I was subletting from an older man) came out to help me unpack…well, let’s just say that 40-year-old-German Scientists were not pleased to be pulling boxes out of a stinky horse trailer with some remnants of manure. I’m not kidding.

2. In college I was totally broke. My parents wouldn’t help me with a car and I had a job I needed to get to in order to pay for school. Luckily for me, a coworker got engaged and her boyfriend bought her a shiny new car so she sold hers to me for $25.00! Again, I’m not kidding. It had no muffler but it did have a hole in the floor – I could actually see the road when I was driving! But it worked!

3. The day after homecoming my senior year in high school, I was at work and a classmate came in. When he saw me he yelled – loudly, while pointing

Oh my GOD, our homecoming queen works at McDonald’s!”

What’s With the Wicked?

I don't have a Boston accent and I didn't grow up here but the word is just so endearing I have adopted it as my new favorite word. Wikipedians describe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Boston_accent
