This is the story of my life (this is funny to me)....
I have been called Maria for as long as I can remember LOL. I guess is the default name for Latin women. Hey more than half the country is named after a saint or Maria or Guadalupe (Lupe) or Jesus not Jesus but (heysus).
It happens all the time if some one forgets my name they just call me Maria...The funny thing is that even Latin people (who I like to call my cusins) (no relation) also call me "Maria"
May be one day I will answer to Maria. May be one day some one will be offering Maria a million dollars......

Sun, April 13, 2008 - 8:03 PMI'm sorry, some people can be discriminatory pigs. I'm Italian/Polish and I get talked to like I'm Jewish or, my personal favorite, at the airport I'm taken for an arab terrorist, I get searched at every stop.

It's in the title of my blog. I don't mean to sound like a smart ass , but I thought it was clear. :) . Personally I think being mistaken for a "Maria" is quite funny.
This is not a political or personal blog, at least in my eyes, but you always have the option of not reading blogs that people post.
