Thank god it’s only once every four years…*

Today I checked off another one of the tasks on my ‘Americanization’ list (note how I used a zee there!) by voting in a presidential election – a right conferred upon only U.S. Citizens (I naturalized in 2009), and only taken away if you’re a convicted felon (which I’m not).

There was a report in the newspaper recently on a bridge in Slovakia being named after Chuck Norris.
