The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

I was trying to be patient, but today i finally decided to give CSC a call. After not getting much information from the lady, I asked if she could atleast tell me if an officer has my petition or not yet. SHe checked and said that they got it TODAY! :D I hope all goes smooth. I never had any touches or anything so this was pretty exciting for us. Good luck to everyone! Hope we all get NOA2 VERY VERY SOON!!

Let's hope so!! :thumbs: I'll keep my fingers crossed for you :) We need a smiley with it's fingers crossed...humm

It depends completely on the officer handling your case. Some are finished within a few days and others a few weeks. And then comes the wait to be mailed from CSC to NVC. Let's hope they want to clear their desks before the holiday :)

I saw some of those same ones but didn't really like them either. The first one wouldn't be so bad if it looked hopeful instead of angry..oh well. :)

Congrats. to those who have received their NOA'2's.... WHOO HOOO... what a wonderful reason for you to give "thanks"...

and YES isn't it FANTASTIC to know that this holiday season is the last one without our love ones??? I was just saying that to my darling SO last night when he was telling me what he will be doing with his kiddos for Thanksgiving this week... I wish I was able to be in the USA with him.... but then told him that because he will be here for Xmas & I plan to fly over there (to wait out part of this process LOL... during Feb/March - and to organise schooling and stuff in preparation for my kiddos moving)... It WOULD mean that this Thursday "holiday" would be the last special occasion/day that we have to spend apart... and that is an AWESOME feeling...

have a GREAT day folks... and here's hoping that they are paying the CSC, VSC & NVC staff some extra "overtime" so that they keep on churning out those NOA's and approvals over the silly season..

I posted this in the VSC thread, since I'm a VSC filer, but for all of you CSC'ers waiting for your cases...here's something that I think everyone should get involved with.

Here's a potential new way to get our plight heard, and on national TV!

MSNBC, for those who do not know, every (or every other?) Tuesday do an all-politics day they call "Super Tuesday". They talk with candidates, pundits, everyone, to discuss hot topics and all that.

THIS TUESDAY THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT IMMIGRATION

They have a section where you can submit questions to the studio and they may use it on the air if they like it.

EVERYONE from VJ, especially in this thread, whether you have your NOA2 or not...should submit a short question (3000 characters is the limit) that needs to ask the hard questions:

"When is the federal government going to fix the broken legal immigration system, where non-immigrant worker visas are prioritized over family-based immigration visas?"

"Which presidential candidate will stand up for US Citizens with foreign fiances/spouses and make their entry into the United States more streamlined and less painful?"

"When will Congress hold USCIS, under DHS, accountable for their abysmal customer service when it comes to processing family-based petitions?"

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20465148/

There is the link. PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS ASAP. THIS WILL BE THE HOT ISSUE ON TUESDAY. LET'S MAKE SURE THAT THE ONLY IMMIGRATION ISSUE TALKED ABOUT IS NOT ONLY ABOUT THE MEXICANS COMING IN FROM SOUTH OF THE BORDER

Our Immigration Journey!
