When I was commuting regularly to Columbia South Carolina for a project -- staying for a few days or a week at a time, I found myself "picking up" bits of a southern accent. When I was younger I had lived with a friend from Mississippi for a couple years, so perhaps that is where "seeds" of accent got planted. But later on, when I was on a project in Boston, I "picked up" bits of a Boston accent. Completely unintentional. Some accents just seem to be a little contagious. Or maybe some people are just more susceptible to accent contagion.
