You know you've been in California too long when:

you scream and curse the sky when the temperature goes under 25 degrees at night (that is SERIOUSLY cold where I live... I mean, burr)

you can actually pronounce mexican last names

you can drive for 30 minutes and be surrounded by wineries

you know where all of these Central Valley wines that you see in the store come from and perhaps the person who grows them

you glare at the the water canal that runs through the farms because it is stealing all of our water and giving it to LA so the rich people can wash their cars for the 3rd time this week

when you go to the city (San Fran, that it) and not bat an eye at a guy who is talking to his pepsi bottle

when people ask you what 'the city' is, and you look at them like they are crazy and say: "San Fran, what do you think?!"

And no, I'm not a guy...even though my sig says will robsinson. It's a reference to Lost in Space, an ancient sci fi TV show. And the robot is the character who always says the line.

ok ok ok i just remembered another one

You know you've been in colorado to long when your sense of direction is toward the mountains and away from the mountians

Just thought of another one

You know you have been in Buena Vista, Colorado to long when it is rare to see a colorado lisence plate on the cars
So as you can guess i try to avoid leaving my house during the summer

You know you've been in BV, CO when you know that a vehicle with a texas lisence plate will stop in the middle of the street to let every one pile out to take a picture of a deer and wonder why the deer ain't scared of you
i mean it the other day i had a stare down with a deer that though i was in his territory going in to my house but it is funny as pigeon to see texans pile out of a car to take pictures of deer

I like the cold, I hate it when it gets above 95 degrees. I much prefer 32 degrees to 100 degrees, that's why I run in just shorts and a t-shirt during 2nd period PE
