I am restless as I await the packet from the American Embassy. I have called them for an interview appointment but was advised to first wait for the packet. And as I helplessly lounge in the waiting room, now knowing when the packet will knock on the door, I thought of posing an off-topic question to you, my Filipino friends and your loved ones.

It goes like this - if you are a fan of police stories on television or the movies, who is your favorite TV or movie cop? Mine is Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord) of Hawaii Five-O. Also, I admire Inspector Callahan (Clint Eastwood) of the Dirty Harry pictures. (Omigosh, I'm showing my generation here!) How about you?

Hola Senorita Teresita! Como estas usted? Estoy bien. I hope you get your visa packet soon. -- Rocky

P.S.

Bill and I spent four days in Los Angeles for the holidays. We did some sightseeing in East LA going to Riverside. We missed the exit and we got lost. We ended up in this turn going to Nevada. So we have to go back and find the right one. Luck was on our side, we found this place where Bill has to deliver some stuff he use in his work. You're going to live in the big city -- East LA. I envy you. Much as I like the peace and quiet here, I am stuck here in the country. My friend in Manila had her interview at the US embassy yesterday.Her fiance was there with her.

Estoy bien, señora, gracias. My fiance was able to arrange my interview date without the packet.

Good, you spent the holidays in L.A. You should have gone all the way to Vegas too! My fiance does not live in the city though. He is in the suburbs, about 50 miles southeast of downtown L.A. He says that when he and the family moved to that area 12 years ago, everything was open land and hills and cows. Now, the open land and hills have been bulldozed and houses and shopping centers sprouted rapidly. Most of the cows are gone, moved to the San Joaquin Valley, and those dairy farms are now occupied by homes and shopping centers. He loves suburbia, you know. He says he likes your neck of the woods and he loves Sonoma County wine.

Hasta entonces.

Close, Riverside County, am I right? Below the San Gabriel Mountains. We had to get back, first to Azusa to buy Skechers, and later, to Thousand Oaks for Noche Buena.

Riverside is cool but a bit smogy at times. If I had my druthers I think I would have perferred Chino Hills but I am stuck in Santa Ana for the duration.
