I have a Texas accent. I really don't mind it, but sometimes I wonder what I'd sound like with other accents.
Also, I have a tendency, or rather a talent for picking up accents when I'm in a certain area. It's odd really. I can pick up their accent, and maintain it perfectly during a conversation with someone who has a different accent than my own. Some people get rubbed the wrong way by that, but it's subconscious for me. I can't help it. XD
It doesn't always happen though. Some accents seem to be resistant to just picking up casually, especially blended accents which contain elements of more than one accent.
