My name is Karin, and I am a lifelong Jersey Girl and proud of it. I have a Primary Immune Deficiency (PID), bronchiectasis, asthma, and various allergies. I'm sick, a lot. I also get IVIG at home once a month, and am on multiple meds. The pharmacists know me by sight. Doctors think I am very interesting. Regular people think I belong in a hospital bubble. I also have depression, probably poorly treated from ante-natal and PPD. I'm just so TIRED of everything right now. I have never been healthy, never been normal, and am wildly jealous of those who have experienced normal. I want to do normal things and not have to think, "Oh, I can't do that because I might get sick." I've always been different, and I hate it.

Welcome, Karin.
Are you irritated by all the recent New Jersey reality shows, or do you love them? New Jersey has gotten wildly popular lately.

Welcome, Karin. Are you irritated by all the recent New Jersey reality shows, or do you love them? New Jersey has gotten wildly popular lately. Ugh, HATE HATE HATE!! That is not the Jersey I know. And those Jersey Shore people aren't even from NJ. But don't get me started. I can go off on a rant on thsi subject with frightening speed and ease.

Heh. That's kinda what I figured, Karin. I mean, it's not possible for a whole state to be filled to the brim full of guidos. I know people from Jersey, and none of them are like that.
Are you from the north or the south?

I was born and raised in Bergen County, and now live in Morris County, so north. Which, since you know people from NJ, you understand that North Jersey is really a different planet from South Jersey.

Indeed. North Jersey leans toward NYC, and the south is more Philadelphia centric - although that's simplifying it, I'm sure. I have affectionate feelings for New Jersey, so it irks my liver to see it represented by drunken trolls.
