southern hospitality

so I joined the Atlanta Blogs
webring today... I must say that looking at other pages on the webring has made me want to dabble in photography again. I took a photography class at Tech last fall and I loved it. got to learn the basics as well as how to process and develop black and white 35mm film. being in a darkroom is so relaxing if you're the only one down there. just put on some good music and the hours fly by! here are some scanned pictures from that class. (I'll put them in the pics section eventually.)

just got back from lunch at Rocky's...
first time I've eaten there and I must say it is a pretty cool place to eat... and the food's good too. ;) today starts the first day of my 5-day break from work and school. it definitely feels like a friday to me. yay! but I guess I'm not the only one who celebrates the 4th with a 5-day weekend... which brings up "southern hospitality"...

some band people
I talked to yesterday said there was no such thing as "southern hospitality" anymore... at least in the big city. but what exactly -is- southern hospitality? is it free refills on your sweet tea? is it just greeting somebody with "howdy"? or is it something more? hmmm...
