He: “So, where are you from?”

Me: “Rural Missouri.”

He (shocked, surprised): “No. Seriously?”

Me: “Yes, I was raised on a farm.”

He: “Huh.”

Me: “Why, where did you think I was from?”

He: “I would’ve said upstate New York.”

Me: “You’re kidding. I give off an upstate New York vibe?”

He2: “I agree. I would’ve said Rochester-ish.”

Me: “But not the Hamptons.”

He2: “No! River Valley area, maybe.”

He: “I can see that.”

Me: “I’m not sure how I feel about this. Hmmmm…prepare to be shocked further.”

He: “Why?”

Me: “I was once the president of my local FFA chapter.”

He: “FFA?”

Me: “Future Farmers of America.”

He: “No!”

He2: “Why, were you bringing technology to the farm?”

Me: “No, nothing like that. They simply threw the best parties.”

He2: “You’re definitely upstate New York.”

He: “Yeah.”

Me: “Hmmmm.”
