Los Angeles!

That's nice. Mine is Dallas and the USCIS website estimates the processing time as a year so I have a long way to go. Wish it was more centralized so it's easier to track based on other people's experiences.

Got courtesy letter today regarding medical. I got scared because the letter is pink and I was worried it was bad news. It just says that I-693 was not submitted, to bring it to the interview, and to not mail anything at this time. Not expecting interview any time soon though because San Francisco is taking 17-21 months. Still waiting for news regarding EAD and AP.

For every story like this you have the other side of it.  I filed mid October and its been 2.5 months, my biometrics appt is tomorrow. For some odd reason it sent my stuff to a field office thats several states away and I live in DC...
