HelpAm I too late? :(
in reply to a message by Serafina Starstrider
I've stayed away from btn almost all day! My addiction! lol
Anyway: I have lived as far north as New York (city and long island) and as far south as South Carolina, although I did spend a lot of time in Florida and everywhere in between!
In NY no one would really care that a little girl is Dante. Even in parts of where I am some people wouldn't care. I think it really depends on the specific town. In Goose Creek (not where I am, but close enough) people would be appalled. In Charleston, not so much. Probably some comments--mostly inquisitive but not negative. It's a Hipster-y town, though, so a lot goes there...

Hehe you definitely aren't too late. It's only 7:00pm where I am right now. Plus I'm a terrible night owl though I'm hoping to go to sleep earlier tonight than last night.
I was thinking that it would depend on where you are living on the East Coast. I suspect that some places are probably very traditional and proper, while some other places are less so. I haven't spent much time on the East Coast so I'm not very familiar with it.
I know I've said it before but I'd love to visit Charleston. In the past I've noticed that quite a few people on here who have either lived in Charleston or live there currently. After seeing Anthony Bourdain's South Carolina episode I've felt that Charleston seems like a cool place to visit. I don't think I would ever want to live that far South, at least not more than a few years. The Southern parts of the US are hotter than I like.

Yay! Although I hope you did get some sleep! :)
Yes--it's hard to lump the entire East Coast together when it comprises so many different states.
Charleston is great. It can get very hot (especially if you aren't used to it--which I kinda am now) but it's worth it. Right by the water with pretty ships, a lot of history, old churches, and interesting people. There is a man who plays his violin every night on a street corner... unfortunately, it sounds more like he's doing a social experiment on how long strangers can deal with sound annoyances.
We have Captain Sparrow here. Some man dressed up like Captain Sparrow just wanders around acting awesome. Looks just like him and has the walk down! When you sight him it's a lot like seeing a unicorn. He just passes by and you go, "Ah! Captain Sparrow!" but by the time your friends turn around he's gone and you look insane. It's great.
