This will be our 1st val as married couple..so we will probably stay indoors with a DO NOT DISTURB sign. :D

Feb 14th morning at 10:30

DIRECTV installation guy(now onwards - Guy): Knock, Knock, Knock, hey this is DIRECTV installation guy! It looks like snow is melted today and we are able to install your dish!

Noise from inside (now onwards, couple's voice, aka CV) : What the heck? Don't you read the sign "Do not disturb!" :devil:

Guy: Yes mam, I did. But I don't come this way until next week :innocent:

CV: Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Guy, Do you prefer to watch the actions live or recorded?

CV: What do you mean?

Guy: We have some pay per channels with some hot actions, it will spice up your day :innocent: But remember, children under 18 are not allowed to watch it!

CV: Ok, we'll give 10min. to you!

Guy: Is there any children under this age inside?

CV: Not now, but we are in the process of it ;)

Guy: Oh really! Then, I'll come next week!

Loto

LD, Enjoy your valentine's day as married couple for the first time :star:

I have been checking flight prices for march and april...

So far if I schedule 15 days in advance, I can get a good price.

So I will wait as long as I can this month hoping for Interview date.

If we do not get a date news by March 1, I will have to schedule my flight for last

of March and 2 weeks in April. With China may be months before an Interview, and then may be in 2 weeks, who knows. Hard to schedule a trip........
