You can take the girl out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the girl. Sounds like you need to ditch LA and come "home" to the south.
Well, i'm not from the south, but definitely drawl on my 'i' words- like child, awhile, pie and i get teased sweetly here in LA about it. When i moved to SoCal over 18 years ago, i had a serious heavy southern accent (which i never knew about until moving here) b/c i'm from Missouri! So after living in the land of no accent for many years, i have to say i hear all accents now- even my own- i especially start drawlin' when i'm tired or drunk or this is odd, if i hear another's southern accent, i immediately start drawlin no matter when it is. That's always fun in group meetings..i sound like i'm trying to clown them!
