I live in DC, what do you think? I am so glad I don't go to bars anymore where the political talk is non-stop. No wonder I had to get so drunk!

I'm always sick of them.
Been sick of them since my voting rights were revoked years ago for being in the US illegally, unbeknownst to me. Since then I've had a bit of a chip on my shoulder towards any election. :roll:

I'm a citizen of Norway. I have been in the states since 2 years of age though. It's a really long drug out story...I'll give you the short version. ;)

Like I said...born in Norway.
Moved to the states with my mother and step-father 2 years later. My mother passed away when I was 10 years of age. Before her passing she was going through the process of becoming naturalized, which would have automatically included myself once completed. All we can figure is that she found out she was terminal right smack dab in the middle of the process and stopped, not realizing the negative impact it would have on my life, I'm sure.

Lots of inbetween stuff.

I go on with life. Age 18 I get my voters registration card...etc etc. At age 22 I find out I am not here legally (by legally I mean I was not a citizen nor did I have a resident alien registry on file)...new employment laws... and had to go through the ringer to become a "permanant" resident alien. My voters rights were revoked because of it, I was threatened of being sent back to Noway...even though by that point in my life I had been adopted by a US citizen, married at the time and had just had my 2nd child. :roll: LOL! I should write a book! :lol:

Anyway...it all rubbed me the wrong way, so I lost interest, yadda yadda.
I'm so used to it now though I kinda like being an alien. Image



Well...I TRIED to keep it short. ;) :lol:
