Savannah Sass

What is a typical "Savannah Girl" like -- well, I can sure tell you a lot about this particular query.  Using my "surrogate daughter" as a partial example I can say that she is: confident but internally panicked; flirtatious to a strong degree yet apparently totally oblivious to her own needs; smart but achingly dumb about some things; willing to be fearless, but ridiculously afraid to fail; beautiful, but aware of every physical flaw she possesses!

I have seen so many of these "Savannah-born" women in my life that I have become able to pick them out from any crowd, anywhere, anytime! She is the woman in the bar smoking the small cigar, wearing the tight jeans, leading the strongest conversations, and most likely to go home late -- and probably alone.  She is "loyal" to a fault, and to a guy with many, many faults!  She goes at existence like it was a 2-lb steak, and comes away with her hunger only partially satisfied. She is a creature of pure whimsey, and purer deliberation. She is the classic description: "a beautiful girl with a dirty face."
