MTL (and others) Waiting for an interview date

[erintoronto 0]

The train today was hell. It left NY on time but then we stopped in Saratoga Springs b/c there was a freight train ahead of us that had broken down and we couldn't bypass it. We were there for 2 1/2 hours before they transferred us onto buses, drove us up to Plattsburgh, and then transferred us back to a train to cross over the border. I got in at 10pm instead of 7. Tired. Time to go take a relaxing bath with the boy now.

Hopefully Leafgal won't be in the bedroom....

sorry to hear about your travel delays. but seriously, was leafgal in the bedroom? inquiring minds want to know!

best wishes for tomorrow. i can't wait to hear your good news!

You guys are funny. I guess I'll continue to keep a lookout for you Leafgal.

Thanks everyone for your well wishes. Now that I'm here it's all good. We're going to compile all our paperwork now. Whee!

Glad to hear you made it in once piece Rae after all that runaround. My co-worker took a train to New York a couple months ago and it was unreal how much they were delayed and all the mishaps. The highlights were...non USC's being asked the same questions so many times everyone on the train knew the answers, two women getting into a physical fight over their personal space, being rerouted & switched trains due to a wreck on the tracks at an intersection (car vs. train), and finally their train being on fire!! All incidents were separate, having nothing to do with the others. I know there were more little things, but can't remember them all.

So, tomorrow is your big day!! Are you guys doing anything fun today?

[rae_and_scott 1]

Wow, what a hassle! At least there wasn't a fire on my train! lol

We are having dinner with his dad tonight (which actually should be fun; some parents are not but his dad's side is). Not sure what's the plan for the day, so maybe a walk around downtown or something. I'm in need of some Rockaberry Key Lime Pie!

[Leafgal 3]

Sounds like a nice dinner will be had by all. Remember to relax and have a good time while you are there, and don't stress about the interview tomorrow (I know easy to say hard to do, but I have been there and it was easy) put your paperwork in order and you will do fine, they are all very nice there and patient so like I said don't stress to much. Will be thinking of you tomorrow and can't wait to read about your time there.

Lights out at 11 tonight, and I mean be ready to sleep then lol. Best of luck to you both. And I will be checking to see if the light is off and that it is quiet in your room at 11:01

[rae_and_scott 1]

Actually we really are not stressed at all! I think we both feel this is a formality, and we have everything in order, so it's just a matter of getting it over with. So I'm looking forward to having it done!

Lights out in half an hour.

I'll be back tomorrow to share with you all the good news.
