I usually do, but sometimes I do get a bit highbrow. I try to keep it casual.

Sort of. Except I don't write the useless "like" and "um" as I do when I talk. I just can't stop that "like"...I know it sounds dumb. Who started that?

Pretty much I tend to think before I write. Sometimes when I speak I say things that I shouldn't. :p
ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

I write better than I talk and I'm a Philly chick. And the daughter of an English teacher. But, I also don't say certain words. The word "ain't" is not spoken in this household.

I take more time to write than I do when I talk. I can be pretty quick witted at times but when I have to stop and think about how to spell it I usually think twice about saying it. I have a bad habit of saying "crick" when I should say creek and "tater" when I should poetater.

I have you imagined in my head Clint. I have for the longest time. There are only a few folks here that are like that... already visualized in my head.

But don't be scared... it's a nice visual..:p:-4

No way! If people wrote the way they talked none of us would ever get out of grade school. :)
