I always thought of myself as having no accent. But I guess everyone has an accent. I'm from Iowa/Nebraska, so I sound pretty normal. Like newscasters on TV. Every once in awhile I might slip out something a little bit northern though, since I grew up on the border of Iowa/Minnesota and have relatives with the hardcore "donchaknow" northern midwest accents.

I'd say you have an accent.
I'd be hard pressed to place it though.

I've noticed Midwesterners tend to say "wuder" while east coasters say "watt-er." In the south it's "waw-dur"
