I don't think sleep deprivation is going to b a big issue... I get more sleep than ever!... it's just not continuous and that definitely matters sometimes. I'm not living on junk food, but I am limitting the amount of food I'm eating so nutrient defficiencies could happen especially since the food I am eating isn't that varied... I should be taking a multivitamin.

LOL its a rather sorta Aussie slang saying I suppose, though I have heard it from Canadians and South africans before. Not sure if its used in the US so much....

Flu shots are less annoying then a week in bed, though there are some mornings where i feel like i could just spend a week in bed!

How does one know when it is "touched"? I keep logging on and the same information shows up...

I'd like to get this over with yesterday but I'm anticipating some bureaucracy delays...maybe pushing what I thought was 6 months to 9 or more?

Luckily I'm using Vermont so that will shave a little time off but adding back Thailand time, I guess it all comes out in the wash!

everytime your file is picked up it is scanned and the date will change on the website.

Once the date changes it is "touched"

Thank you kindly. I also found a separate touched topic LOL!

Flu shots? They have to gauge 6 months ahead until flu season and incubate and mass produce it...one of half a dozen strains and if the wrong strain becomes the dominant virus in your area, you got the 1/2 day queasies from the flu shot, then a week of flu on top of that!

I learned from working for many years in hospitals not taking it seems to work as well as taking it (for me) so I don't bother any more. Last time I got the flu I took the shot.

Not sure how to make this time go by faster. She doesn't like me mentioning how many days/months because she says, "It might as well be a year..." Unfortunately she's right....may as well be. I do admit considerable jealousy for those who whip through it all in 4-5 months. Too bad you can't bribe US officials like you can in Thailand...

Christmas? I don't care about christmas yet, there is a far more important holiday that comes first, it's called thanksgiving, this holiday is particularly important because you get to eat turkey, the most delicious version of chicken there is. Also, my birthday lands on thanksgiving every few years which just adds to the bonus a little. Also, thanksgiving is one of the few holidays that actually gets two days off in a row for (plus the weekend that follows). And did I mention you get to eat TURKEY!!! Christmas is cool too because you also get to eat turkey and there are presents and stuff too... but sometimes people choose to have ham instead of a turkey, and that makes me sad, it's ok to have a ham and a turkey, but no one should have to go without a turkey. The end.

There is a good chance for some christmas NOA2's, especially amount the VSC filers, this will be a very different christmas than most of us are used to I bet.
