Twenty?

As of this month, I have lived in the L.A. area for twenty years. I don't remember the exact date, only that my family arrived on the scene a week or so after the Los Angeles Olympics.

I know this doesn't mean much to you but it is a surprising realization to me. I still tell people that I'm "from" Oklahoma, but it's beginning to dawn on me that I'm from here now.

I know whatcha mean: next spring it'll be ten years for me.

Wow. I never thought of it like that.

You've lived in California longer than you lived in Oklahoma.

Well, you can still say you grew up in Oklahoma but I agree... you're from California now.

I don't even know where to tell people I'm from anymore...
