It will wear off over time, like mild jet lag.

My only question is why? ..
If I was in Germany,I probably would stay there if I were you.
I would look into trying to find another job or career there. America is not a very happy place right now.
Our freedoms are slowly being taken away by the politically correct society that we live in today. Our freedoms of speech,our mails are being opened by the government since Bush has been in office,gas prices are outrageous,home and heating bills are too much too bear,insurance rates have skyrocketed because of the sue happy society we live in today,and our voting rights and privileges are in doubt ,because of the last 2 elections .
Popular vote means nothing,it never did because of the electoral college,but it is now more prevalent and apparent to everyone.
Our last election we voted "against the war",and the will of the people does not seem to mean anything anymore in this country.
Health care is suffering,our retired citizens are making choices of buying food ,or paying for their health insurance.
Our Social Security system is in jeopardy also.
That is why America is not a happy place anymore.
What ever happened to the "good old days" when all we had to worry about was Monica Lewinsky.

We now live in a politcally correct police state. Many who have lived under the fascists and the communist have spoken and they have said the US is right on course as their ex-nations. You have a choice, once you come back, to be oppressed by these self-appointed guardians of society or join the underground as I have.

We are the molding pot.Any race you can name is here. So you aren,t going to be special. Are you expecting a lot? America to me is land of opportunity .We all have one thing in common the almighty dollar.Myself i like suffering gracefully. Money is money and money makes the world go aroung.
