We arrived at the consulate at 12:20 - apparently that's too early for a 1:00 appointment, and the security guards told us to come back. Returned at approximately 12:45, and went upstairs to begin the wait.... which wasn't all that bad. Gave the lady at the first window all my documents, and then waited some more. It seemed like they were trying to get everyone's files in order before starting the interviews. Anyhow, finally I was called to the second window, and did the fingerprinting and interview. My fiance was able to be there with me, which was really nice and I think helped. She asked me a few questions, was impressed with all my organized documents  , and issued the visa.
One notable thing - because it was just before a holiday, and since I was flying back to Calgary this morning, they were able to issue and process the visa before we left yesterday afternoon. All told, we were there from 12:45 until nearly 3:30, but the extra wait time was worth it because I don't have to go back to the consulate to pick up the visa, nor wait for it to be mailed out to me.
Hooray!
