I&#8217;ve done my damndest to make my accent, &#8220;Educated American with no localisms.&#8221; As I&#8217;ve gotten older, more of my New York parents accents have snuck in. I also know that my accent will drift depending on my mood and intent. If I&#8217;m punchy and happy around people I&#8217;m comfortable with, I may launch into one of many accents I know. When uncomfortable around complete strangers I have a convincing British accent. (That sucks only when tipsy around <a href=\"http:\/\/tiggr93.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">tiggr93<\/a>) Finally, is the Russian accent. Okay folks here&#8217;s the secret.
