    I'm from Fox Lake, IL! WOOT! Little drunken town that sits as the hub for the Chain O'Lakes, so boating season is starting so more drunks coming soon! I'm only 15 minutes from Wisconsin, so I'm NORTH. I am a suburban girl through and through so not one to answer, "I'm from Chicago" even though I know you guys all know Chicago but say "Fox Lake? Chain O'Lakes?" lol

    And yes, I'm usually not at work on Friday but y'all are stuck with me this morning!

    @muscati Wow! What brought you out there? Do you experience culture shock when you come home?

    Hi I met my husband at LSU when u was in university. He's from here. We lived n. USA for 12 years then his father died n his mother needed us. We first came here only a few years ........ Lol now it's been 12 1/2. Lol
    It's nice and I do like it. Some things make me want to bang my head in he freaking wall. I go home each summer to Louisiana and see family. We just managed to get positions here we could never leave cus finances are good. Better schools than what we could afford in USA. So we stay. I have a lot of American and friends from uk. My in laws r Omani and r very kind but I do not hang out with them as much as I used to. I find being around my own culture is mentally better for me.
