From Not Here
Submitted by Taranis on Wed, 02/20/2008 - 19:31
The question comes sooner or later:
Where are you from?
I:
- was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and stayed there 3 years.
- lived in Dayton, Ohio for 6 years.
- lived in Trinidad and Tobago for 6 years (maybe 7).
- lived in Dallas, Texas for about a year.
- traveled around the US for a bit over a year. Fun year.
- lived in Ozone Park, New York for 1 year.
- joined the Navy and traveled to all sorts of fun places for 6 years.
- got out of the Navy and lived in Ozone Park, New York for about half a year.
- moved to Orlando, Florida and lived there for about a year.
- moved to St. Petersburg/Clearwater, Florida, for about 6 years.
- moved to Trinidad for about 4 years to keep an eye on the old man.
- travelled Central America and the Caribbean for a year. Lots of places.
- returned to Trinidad to settle some issues and decide on where next to be - 2 years now.
So where am I from? Why do you ask? I am from Not Here. Any questions?
And did you notice I didn't ask where you were from?

Small Talk
It's all a matter of small talk - rather like, "How are you?"
Nobody really wants to know.
Small Talk...
like that... boggles the mind.
I half disagree.
Some pple ask because they ARE truly interested. It's just gotten to the point where it's difficult to distinguish between the small talkers and the interested.
Right!
Now that we know that you're from Not Here, why, then, aren't you there?
