[ WP ] One day at work , a coworker jokingly shouts : `` If you love [ name of home state ] so much , then why do n't you go marry it ? '' You laughed and responded : `` Yeah , I wish ! '' The next morning , you wake up married to a personification of your home state .

`` Who are you?'' I asked, already reaching for something to throw. 
 
 `` Why the name's Sunny, of course. Ya know, Sunny California...'' she beamed, curly golden hair and glasses giving her a curious look. Her faint blue-grey eyes stood out as clear as the sky above. 
 
 `` Uh.. how did you get in my house...'' I asked, my voice scratchy and confused. *Did I take something with the beer last night? * 
 
 `` Well technically, your house has been inside of me this whole time. Rather, the land I am, or... it's complicated.'' 
 
 Pinching the bridge of my nose utterly confused, I asked `` You're telling me that you're the *State* of California.'' 
 
 `` Yep! 100 % in the flesh, still getting used to the limbs thing. Want some fish tacos?'' she said, before a plate of them magically appeared in her hands with a slight glow. 
 
 *Okay, she might be crazy, but she has fish tacos. I can live with this for now. * 
 
 `` Nice to meet you Sunny, the name's Oscar. Oscar Oregon.''

 Full disclosure, I am from neither of these places. I just did n't want to write about NJ.
