I miss my home.........California is so far away, so way .......out there.  California as a liberal State of crazy ideas gone bad, is not what I miss, I miss my home. The smell of orange blossoms as you drive through the orchards, the taste of tamales, and the streets and places that are all so familiar.
Here is not so familiar. People in the South have NO Southern Hospitality what so ever! Where did that phrase come from cause by-golly I have never seen it! They are pretty friendly to their own families, but who isn't? You want hospitality, go to California, they have the nicest people in the USA! I've lived all over the US and so I know this for a fact. The rudest people, I hate to say...is PA. I love PA but lets be real, they'd run you down in a store with their cart at tell you it was all your fault. I even had one woman, a good friend say to me, "Holidays are for family, you are not my family so don't ever expect me to invite you over for any holidays!"
Wow, RUDE!
But home, is home, nice people, family, crazy as they are, they are family! I miss them, I miss home, I miss life in general. There's just been this giant hole in me since we moved away. I can't ever get back, not even for a vacation with the airline/gas prices. It's like i feel "stuck" in a foreign land. I just want to go home................
