Just got back from my class and my instructor was pretty much impressed with how good I did wth the manicure/pedicure session. Tomorrow we'll proceed with facials and skin care. I am very happy that I was productive today other than at work. I went for another round of shopping at the Body Shop with my sister too. I got a new purse (free) for my purchases. Loved it!

LOL Shopping always cheers up my sweety too!! :)

Hang in there, the clock never stops.

Every second it ticks off is one more you never need to wait on again.

I haven't seen the bush video yet... but I'm pretty sure I will before today is over.

And yeah, it's a little weird to look forward to a monday, but I definitely have been looking forward to this one, I'd put at least a small amount of money on a NOA2 or RFE for my petition today, or at least this week (unfortunately I sent philippines style passport photo's for my fiancee, so oops) but honestly with RFE's it's usually a very quick turn around so even that's OK... and I don't know for sure that the passport photo thing will be an issue, historically it's gone either way many times (but is definitely required to have the right background for the embassy part of things). Anyway, I realized that I'm not looking forward to monday so much as the end of monday, even if I get an approval today, it's not likely I'll know about it until much later. I was expecting to have to wait several weeks after the first CSC august approvals showed up but due to the dates of the people who have been approved I feel like I'm next in line!

Get your own line... this is my fantasy!!!

I think it's almost late enough in the day that CSC is open and potentially processing petitions... who's ready to start stalking the online case status page! (My work is keeping me kind of busy today... it's a day where everything is broken and I'm the one who's in charge of fixing it...).

ETA: No touches for me yet... but I figure I can't instigate a USCIS status check fest without looking myself... I figure if something does happen today it won't be until late that I find out...

I just keep praying mine shows up in the mail. It is very common for CSC to have no touches or e-mail and it just shows up. That means I could have been approved last week and just didn't know it. It does make me a tad worried that all the Aug. approvals were mid Aug. and I am beginning Aug. I think it means I am at the back of the box of the guy who still hasn't approved the July people. :-)

i havent had any touches at all so is there still a chance for a rfe... ugg this is the longest day realy i couldnt sleep at all last night i think i need somone to knock me out at least till somthing comes.

well when we sent in the package thing we really went over it well and sent pictures from visiting in egypt and kuwait along with copies of airline tickets ect.

he's working on some small things like going to some driver ed school cause hes never had a license before...... this wait is killing me really. one thing i am worried about is they might say we havint known each other long enoough or somthing.. now im even thinking maybe it would have been better for him to file with egypt..

ok sorry for rambeling just i do this when i get nervouse good thing is he stays completly calm
