Wake Up Oklahoma

Elmore City is about an hour south of OKC
The movie Footloose was based on that town
It didn't allow dancing in it for about 100 years, a stupid law

Pres, you have relatives there? I mean, how did you come to choose Elmore City?

Oh, edited to add, I think you have to be born here to be a true Okie, lol.

i'm not moving into Elmore City per se. i think that it's just the closest town to where i'll br living. i'm moving in w/my best friend (nothing romantic-she's not butch and has given up on relationships). she's got a farm out in Garvin (?) Co. she wants some company, and i want some peace n quiet. i think this will be great for both of us. i'll get a chance to lick my wounds, and she'll have someone to talk to, keep the dog company while she's at work, etc. for once i won't have anyone to take care of but myself! the temp is milder; the house will be warm, and i'll have friends around there. looking so forward to this move....

I believe that if you grow up a good many years in Oklahoma, you might just qualify as an Okie, especially if you pick up that twangy southern drawl.

LOL, leaves me out of being a true Okie
I'll never get that twangy southern drawl

ok, OK! i've finally arrived! of course, -10 degree weather was NOT a nice way to welcome a damselfemme fleeing cold climes! i forgive the Weather Gods their irony, since the extreme cold lasted only a short while. the weather has been beautiful here in south central OK! a show of hands, please? anyone near the "Mores"-More, Elmore City, Ardmore? i want friends! *putting my hands on hips and stamping a petite foot* i'm about 70 miles from OKC, if that helps, and get to the city fairly often. (this is pres, btw. apparently when i changed my nick, it really screwed up my account, so i had to go reregister.)
i do like it here, though tis different from anywhere else i've lived. i'm a Deep South grrl originally and never really lived outside the South.

Not quite settled in, but finally made OKC my new digs. The ride to work is an hour less each way now.

Honestly, if it wasn't for Starbuck and my ex, nothing would have got moved
I came down with either the flu or stomach virus last weekend and couldn't do a thing except hug the porcelain. Even water hated me along with Gatorade. So, we have my ex, who is going through chemo, Starbuck who just had shoulder surgery and me who was whining like a baby because I was ill. It was like the blind leading the blind.

I'm up for hanging out over a cheap meal or coffee whenever any of ya'll are up OKC way.
