Whenever I am writing on this here blog thingy, I always have to stop myself from using ya'll. Why? I have no idea. Even though I don't think I have ever said it out loud, it seems very natural for me to write it. And why, you might ask, do I refrain. I feel like you have to be from the south, a true southerner, to use that special little contraction. But, since this is my special little place, I am turning over a new leaf, and I am going to use ya'll whenever I get the urge (even if I am from central Wisconsin).
Here Goes:
Ya'll, I have been working on a post for the past two days, All About Me. Whenever I check out other blogs, I always read the 100 things about Me. I think ya'll can learn a lot about a person. I should have it posted sometime this afternoon. Ya'll come back now, you here? (OK, I might just go throw up now from the cheese factor.) Hopefully I got all that "ya'll" business out of my system and I'll never feel the urge to use it again!

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with saying ya'll. Just like there is nothing with say "I'm fixing to.."
:o)
I know there is nothing wrong with it, I just feel like you are only allowed to say it it you are from the south. I am not from the South!
Funny!
I'm from Memphis and don't know how to say anything other than y'all! For some reason, I spell it that way and THAT is even hard for me to do b/c the "lazy southerner" in me just wants to type "yall."
I think it would be funny to hear you say it though!
I've also been trying to work up the energy to do a "100 list." Maybe sometime soon I'll get mine going.
Can't wait to read it b/c they are a really good way to get to know the bloggers in blogger world.
