Just six days before I go to Japan + Thailand!

It feels so surreal since I bought the tickets more than 4 months ago and was so busy with other things.

Time feels like going fast lately and that's awesome, considering how slow things are still going immigration wise.

I thought it was great when the little Dane stopped screaming in the morning and started knocking at his door to get out.

 

Until 4am this morning:

 

Bang bang bang bang goes his door as if it were a 6'2" police officer behind it.

 

Bang bang bang bang....

 

Maybe if I just ignore it, he'll give up and go back to sleep.

 

Bang bang bang bang.... How is a 2 year old so strong?

 

The Dane has decided to just get up with him.  The Little Dane has heard us whispering, so he stops.

 

The Dane lays back down.

 

Bang!  Bang bang bang.

 

This is what it is like to have a living breathing troll in your house.

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

Aw I don't know, in Japan I'll have wiFi since I'll hire a pocket wiFi, but in Thailand it might be difficult since it's a village outside Surin with almost no internet.

I'll visit as often as I can, I'll miss ya guys
