PSA: Register to Vote!!

Confession: I haven't been registered to vote in 4 years.
Some will say tsk tsk, but I only vote in the Presidential election. Well, not true. I also voted during mayoral elections for NYC but since I'm no longer a resident of the lovely state of New York and don't follow my local [JC] politics, last I pulled the lever was for the last Presidential election. I actually shouldn't have voted in NY, but since it was shortly after my move, I was still registered there and figured that was easier than trying to register in a new state. (That and I still wasn't convinced I would be a NJ resident for long.)

With the next major election in a few months, I finally decided to get moving and look into voting. Naturally, NY revoked my rights and when I checked the system, I clearly wasn't registered to vote in NJ either. Well, I have to swallow my pride and accept that I am a NJ resident. (Eek. Gross. I rather tell the world I am from Staten Island then New Jersey, but I digress.) And so, while sitting here perusing the internet and reading UsWeekly online, I came across GOTTAVOTE. (Funny, it automatically directed me to the NY page.) And  so I took that as a sign to stop procrastinating my 'research' and just register. And I have. So people, this is your public service announcement: REGISTER TO VOTE if you haven't already.

(Thank you UsWeekly for featuring fun facts for Mrs. Obama, or else it would have taken me another week or more to register.)
