Anxious is a better way to describe the feeling! How long do the lab results take in Bogota? Does she get to take them home with her?

Trav's been trying to calm me down about all the flying, and it seems to be working (he says "look, do you claim to have any faith that God's getting us through this? If you do - STOP WORRYING! Do you think He'd get us this far just for nothing? Please relax - you WILL be fine, I JUST know. :) "). Doesn't make me feel any better about being in a huge metal tube 30K feet up, but his calmness makes me feel kinda better LOL.

I keep saying it - there's drugs for this.

I like making analysis, i was just reading an Haiti member that Got her Case comple Feb 15th, her interview will be May 11th. I found that on April 10th the Embassy received her case ( april 10th is 1 month before her interview, 2 month After her CC and April 10th is not the second week of April). Thus, by May 10th not MAy 15th as operator keep chanting it, i should be able to know if i will have a June interview and the case will be sent to the embassy 1 month before the June interview ( May something...) :dance: . Therefore, they are chances that i have a June interview and probably an early one.

Yes, you do - noted. Those drugs knock me on my backside - can't handle 'em. I will just plug in my music and try to sleep (or watch a movie...). Distraction helps.

I found that on April 10th the Embassy received her case ( april 10th is 1 month before her interview, 2 month After her CC and April 10th is not the second week of April).

THAT would be awesome - I REALLY hope this analysis is correct!
