Aauuuuuuuuuuuuugh!

THAT'S ALL I can muster after today at the préfecture. I arrived 1 1/2 hours early (7:20am) thinking that would make for an easy day. Wrong. My number (51) was called at 3:20pm.

Kerri and Henry joined me at 9:15. Luckily, Kerri's brother is here and Patrick and Julia stayed with them all day.

At least we have a Carte de Séjour for another year.

You have my most heartfelt sympathy and empathy on this one.

hey congrats on getting it though! And you got to spend some time in Nice, which is always.... nice (I really tried not to say it).

Sounds worse than waiting in line at the MVA for a driver's license.

How well I know the line at the préfecture in Nice. They screwed up the address on my carte de séjour and I ended up having to go in once every three months for over a year. Arggh

To anonymous above:
I heard that Americans have to stand in REALLY long all day lines just to vote. What's the difference?
