Talking in Texan, Lesson Four
We are moving along at a neck breaking pace. I believe that y'all can handle these intense lessons just faahn, so let's move along, shall we?
I'mona: pronounced, ahmOWNa, lazily drawlin' in place of, "I'm going to."
Weensdee: meaning Wednesday, pronounced "Weensdee" (In Texas our other days of the week are Mundee, Toosdee, Thuuursdee, Frahdee, Saturdee, and fahnly, Sundee.)
Contextual example: I'mona go back thar ta It-lee on Weensdee, y'onna (do you want to) come? What about yer mamanem?
Well, I will be headin' on back to It-lee Weensdee, much to the dismay of my mamanem, but I'll missem (and here's another straight from my grandmother) "lahk aw gitout."
And if you weren't sure, that means a lot.

Oh geesh, if you hadn't explained that that last one meant "a lot" I would have fried my brain trying to figure it out! Crap, do I get an "F" for this lesson?! lol

You're coming back? Well, I'm outta here then! Wouldn't it be funny if we met at the airport? Do you wanna meet up for Piazza in Napoli on the 16th May? I'll be there with Dan if you want to join us.
