On the postive today I have a rainbow post! I am meant to be going shopping to look at bridesmaid dresses with my sister today, Chris and I have decided we are going to have a purple theme for our wedding party... now just to figure out what type of purple lol.... Dark we thinks.

Does this mean everyone can dress as pimps... or the joker? Why so serious? Oh, cause you're getting married... I guess that's a good reason to be serious.... let me tell you about how I got these... scarves on my neck... you see... my father said it was cold outside...

ETA: I'm king.... I demand... purple pimp suit weddings for all!

Haha Chris is simply too excited because this means there is the posibility he can wear a crushed purple velet suit and have purple rain for me to walk up the alse.... He couldnt understand why I laughed when he said that.

Chris rang the DC office today to get an appointment to see them, he landed on for next wednesday afternoon. Apparently that was the earliest they had because of the events on Tuesday..... Apparently USCIS gets to close in DC on Thursday because of it.... stupid USCIS!

Anyhow failing we don't get our NOA2 in the mail by next Tuesday we will have some sort of News on Wednesday and hopefully at the very least our NOA1 and Case number so we can stop being so much in the dark.

Mara, I wish a NOA2 for you that will blow you away considering you don't have the NOA1 yet..

Mia.. you've cracked 150 days, I really hope you get your wish this week.. you're such a huge support to everyone here, it's about time you had good news.

and HD, you're at 141 days now! I know it feels like forever but that's when we were approved, so I'm betting you'll hear something very soon!

I have my fingers crossed for all of you August filers that haven't heard anything!

Come on VSC!!

We've been lucky to have a fairly easy ride so far, though I think what made it easier was having low expectations.

We told ourselves we would be approved around late December or January, and we were approved on January 2nd, so were within OUR timeline.

It's harder when others are being approved though. All you can do is know that you'll be approved shortly and know that the wait will seem like nothing once that comes.

Actually I'm finding the notion of having to wait 5-6 months to move a lot harder than the entire NOA2 wait. :P

Gemmie, if i could visit my fiancee or him visit me i would have low expectations too, people are not so depressed for the noa2 but more that they cant be with their loved ones :) its a matter of point of view
