Ha! I know, right???

That made me laugh...

He's more the Raven's fan than I am -- like I said, I'm all about the Eddie Allen Poe...

:D

PS... .

I changed my photo in my profile...

I'm generally a little shy about posting pics so... this is about as close as I'll get.

That's me and my family.

:)

Pfft, you look like a Ravens fan :P

Hehe, nice pic :)

LGG....Though I dont post regularly, I always read up on the posts to see how everyone is doing. I know the wait is frustrating. Can you imagine my DS-230 was accepted on Oct 23rd and I already want an interview!! I can't even imagine how you feel. I am sure you'll get an interview in December and start off the new year in the best of your spirits :-)

You have an awesome family...love the picture.

I know... I took it down already... I feel extremely shy about posting photos of us on an online forum...

Limited time offer...

:D

Paranoid? I suppose but I am nothing if not a cautious cat.

Psh. You inspired me to actually put up a profile picture of my wife and I.

I'm NOT a fan of photographs though, so I totally understand your reluctance! Superstitious natives had it right when they thought a camera could steal spirits...

Of course now I have to assume that you just look like a frog and play the banjo.

Aw... I'm sorry for the false inspiration -- I just happen to know for a fact that my husband would be like, "I know that most of the people there are your buddies and you can trust them, but what about the nutters, baby??? Don't post pics of us on the INTERNET!" For that, I respect him so....

You can assume I am frog that plays the banjo though, there are much worse things.

Steve's wife here:

Hang in there! The CR-1/IR-1 interviews for November were actually scheduled before the K1s by the looks of it. Hopefully you'll get in for a December interview, but if not I'm sure it will be January (if it is - wrap up really, really, really warm for the wait at the door; it's kind of chilly there).

Oh Hai, Steve's wife...

:)

Oh I know, I am an ex-native of Montreal. I know full well what the winter is like there. My husband is going to ####### himself!!!! Good thing I got him a pair of those Vancouver 2010 Red mittens!

he can put those on over his full-on wool bodysuit longjohns.

Kinda chilly is the understatement of the year....

:D

Hun, I am not familiar with the type of visa youre filing, but I really really hope you get an interview date soon. *BEARHUG!*

And again, I thank you all for letting me vent - I know I come across sometimes as a whiny baby -- and I hope not so much so but t his is the only place where I can say these things

Pfft, if not for this forum I would have been institutionalized! This is why we have the Canada forum, because we all understand!!!!

I think Peachey may be right on that you will get interviews in December -- it seems all the K1 has been scheduled for November/early December.

AND is your hubby based in Maryland??? If so, thats where Im heading!!! *cross fingers*

Finally married... and still married... ;)
