You have a 12 month pass to the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Wild Animal Park, and Sea World.

You lost your virginity or first drank in TJ (Tijuana)

You're enjoying 80º weather at the end of February while those up north complain about 12 inches of snow.

You can't leave the San Diego County Fair each summer without a plateful of Australian battered potatoes, a funnel cake, and other junk food.

You know that Santee and Lakeside is where the "cowboys" live.

You know what "real mexican food" tastes like.

You don't know how to drive properly in the rain

You freak out when it rains or there's an earthquake

You know what "fire season" is and know what to do

Later we went and left some things at the memorial and I remember going and giving blood one morning at West Hills...I had my toddler with me and those high school kids at West Hills were just amazing with him, keeping him occupied while I gave blood.
The sad part is, Santana will never have a good view now. Whenever I think of that school nowadays, the shooting always comes back.

- You can name at least 5 restaurants with "Bertos" in it

- You know what it means when Trophy Lounge is full of married women

- You have left the country on accident (for those that live in IB)

- At least once a week you see a couch or mattress in the freeway, or a truck loaded over 6 feet high with junk

You've been stuck in the border checkpoint on the 5, north of Oceanside, and cursed it as pointless.

You've snickered at the yellow sign with the running family on it before that same checkpoint.

You had your first chocolate soda in Julian.

You know what, and where, "over the line" is.

You've been parked on the 5 because you forgot it was opening day at the track.

You traveled across the country and discovered carne asada only truly exists in SoCal.

You know what city has the fight for the cross, and the seals.

You've ridden a bike past Hamels.

You get a call from out of state relatives asking if Ca has fallen off into the ocean after every good earthquake.

You've been to the observatory, and wondered why more crotch rocket guys aren't killed on the road up.

You're parents drove you up to play in the snow at Mt Laguna.

You were sad when they replaced the NAS MIRAMAR sign.

Your life has flashed before your eyes trying to get home from Vegas on a Sunday night....and you were so tired, its the only time you wished L.A. was home, so you didn't have another hour to go.

You've planned get togethers, and outdoor events without checking the weather.

You've worn sun tan lotion during the day, and dressed up for Halloween at night.

You've watched a Humphreys concert from a boat.

You still own something with Fouts name, or # on it.

You know that Blacks beach, is mainly old white guys.
