Yeah.

Yeah.

Part of settling into a new life like you're talking about with college is making friends, right?

Figuring out like where things are physically located.

It's a lot bigger than just putting on pajama pants, right?

But here's a question, Michelle.

This is really niche and probably very picky on my part, but our listeners love subtle nuances.

Do you think that the term settle in is used more in like certain regions of the country?

Oh.

Like specifically in the context of checking into a hotel.

I'm just curious if you think like if you ever stay in a hotel like in the West or maybe on the West Coast as opposed to the East Coast, do you feel like you hear that more or less?

I've spent only a little time on the West Coast.

Yeah.

I mean, I grew up in New England and my partner and I have noticed some trends around this term settle in.

It seems to be used more.

It seems to be used more often.

on like in like new england inns when you check into like a you know an old-fashioned inn like oh i'll give you some time to settle in and then you could come down and have you know uh we're serving tea and cookies in the parlor or something uh-huh whereas i haven't heard that quite as much in the west which is interesting but it's just a small theory that's not necessarily true it's just something we joke about that it's something

Yeah.

Because it kind of has very slight notions of like quaintness.

Do you know what I mean?
