Catchphrasies, Also
How weird is it that Katie and I, independently, decided to blog about the same thing on the same day? Because she was first, and because I wrote a crazy long comment on her blog, mine will be short.
Both of the people I work with regularly have what I'd call catchphrases. I hear them regularly and it made me think if I had any.
I had initially decided no, but then, prompted by Katie's post, I came up with one.
"Who dat?"
This is something I think I must have picked up from my Grammie. It's cute. I believe she says this when people walk into the room (not always, but enough that I picked it up somewhere along the way). I didn't even know I said it until I moved to OH, where one of my friends pointed it out because it's kinda weird. When my phone rings, I'll say "who dat?" as I get up to answer it.
Other than that...I guess there are words I've used a lot, but nothing I'd call phrase-y.

Oh, you say it as you get up to go answer the phone? I thought you meant that you say it into the receiver after you pick up, instead of saying hello.
That explains it.
