No worries Riblet.. I really think you'll be next! You know.. I should be jumping up and down but I'm not... it just feels surreal right now.. on one hand i'm happy that we got approved.. on the other.. i'm starting to figure out how long it'll take before the interview at montreal! ahhah.. AND we can't do the CR1 interview in Vancouver.. that's just to bad!

but no complaints...i'll continue to pray for the rest of us here in VJ!
