God no! Then you'll be reminded of this process for the rest of your days! lol, haha

I tell you what. Limited time offer. If I get my NOA2 before Thanksgiving I will tatoo "I LOVE THE VERMONT SERVICE CENTER" somewhere on my body. VSC: The ball is in your court!

For me, I organize and prepare. I review data. I cross check rules and regulations and timelines. I do my best to become an expert in this process and be prepared for all the little things that can

I zoomed right in on "drank copious amounts' THAT is an idea! Maybe I will tie that to getting the tatoo!

Depending on where you live the law may prohibit any drunks from getting tattoos. If you want to get a tattoo without pain while relief stress, there are other recreational substances that may be even better for you. You'll need to get a prescription though. Do you live in California? :D

Now, for that tattoo I must be drunk....... and high

Don't ever do anything you're not willing to explain the paramedics.

a new binder and print out new pages of skype chat at the end of each week.

going on a murderous rampage would probably help to relieve the stress... but it might not look too good at the interview :lol:

That would get you an entirely different type of interview, with a complementary pair of free, adjustable shiny bracelets. :D

I'm feeling really frustrated by the entire process today, so I've already banged my head against the wall, pounded my fists on the desk, slammed my foot in the car door and screamed really loud primal screams. Any other ideas on ways to reduce stress?

Know just how you feel. I wish everyone good luck but the 6 approvals from california yesterday. None have been waiting as long as me. It will be 5 months tomorrow. Time to call?

Hubby and I are thinking of doing that as Christmas gifts to each other. I already know what I want, but I'm a BIG chicken!

As for stress relief, for me, beer fixes everything... temporarily...
