Things I Learned Up North

• I'm "city". Not "country". 
• Apparently living in Texas for a year and a half before the age of ten added a dollop of Southern to my accent, per both Montanans and Canadians. Huh.
• I'm apparently very attractive in both Montana and Canada. I got some attention. Mmhmm.
• And attention breeds confidence.
• Or maybe vice versa?
• It's fun to drink and drive. And by that, I mean drink while driving on a dirt road, not drive after you drink. That would be wrong. 
• I can drink a LOT and not get hangovers. I am a fucking superhero.
• Border patrol be staffed by dicks. "You have a gun in the car, don't you? DON'T YOU?!"
• Rodeos are fun, especially if you don't actually watch the rodeo.
• Canadians cannot dance.
• I was told that I am "the only girl who's ever made a one piece bathing suit look sexy". Fascinating. 
• I really do love country music.
• I could maybe live in Montana for like, a year. Max.
• But I could totally live in Vancouver. 
• I needed to get out of Southern California.
