I got fingerprinted today


I don't like to get up at 6 in the morning
i don't like to run to catch the bus
i don't like to travel during morning commute
i don't like to stand in line after line after waiting area after line
i don't like to get fingerprinted
can i get an amen?
But i did do it all this morning. Plus i got whistled at at by the Hispanic day workers standing at the corner, waiting for work.

If you are now eagerly reading in hopes of finding out an amazing adventure involving me, the law and a tiger, i will have to disappoint.
Recently i had to apply for a renewal of my green card. Quick update in the mix: due to a huge backlog in processing applications, i now have a temporary card (or letter) to replace my previous temporary card until i get my new not temporary card. Logical right?
Anyway, now i was summoned to go to the immigrations office today to get my fingerprints taken.
Totally unnecessary i would say. Since the US immigration service already has my prints from when i entered the states for the first time officially with my card. They printed me. Oh and they again took a picture of me. They already have like 4 on file plus the copies of my picture id's. But hey, they wanted another picture. Go ahead. You only charge me 80 dollar. What if i was a model? Wouldn't they supposed to be paying me to take my photo? Ha.
No i'm not sour. I'm just doing what needs to be done to get where i want to be.

By the way, photo above is not from the official fingerprinting session. I officially state there was no cute stationary nor pink ink involved what so ever. Serious business people, serious business. *smile*
And yes. I need to get my nails done. I know. i will.

Fingerprinting would be so much nicer if it actually happened with pink ink :)
