Words you can keep
A small, generally unkown, upper middle class town located in the farmington valley (CT), boarding towns including: east granby, simsbury, canton, barkhamsted, suffield, and southwick (MA).

Granby includes West Granby and North Granby. The population is somewhere

Granby is consistently highly ranked highly in academic performance. In 2009 Granby was tied in 9th place with Westport for CMT testing. It was also rated the 3rd best small town to live in (#1 Old Saybrook, #2 Weston). The population is about 11,000 people and a seemingly equal number of horses, goats and cows.

Granby is possibly one of the most boring towns in Connecticut. Refusing many commercial businesses, the town remains an isolated, undeveloped, and relaxed environment. There are thousands of acres of nature preserve as well. Most residents tend to work in the insurance industry. The town is much like an undeveloped Simsbury or a more developed Suffield.
Person: Where are you from?

Granby Person: Granby

Person: Where is that?

Granby Person: You know where that notch is on the north side of the state?

Person: No...

Also known as "Cow-Town CT", this boring town has nothing to do in it. When told that someone lives in Granby, most people ask if you live on a farm. People from granby want to leave, and people around Granby don't want to go there, possibly the worst town in the state of CT
Yeah, I've been cow tipping so many times.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
