I kinda wish we could be sarcastic a-holes when answering these questions......

"Who do you live with?"

"My flock of flying monkeys."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Intended Occupation"

"Evil overlord."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Where you do intend to reside."

"My evil castle, duh."

Sarcasm ftw.

Oh Sir Amikety,

I think most people are so concerned with ensuring they fill in everything that their last thought would be sarcasm! However I could definitely see you writing those "witty" answers!

Valentine's Day
Hey Everyone.

I'm back!!

Feeling the blues right now.

Got the flu last week but am feeling down having to leave without my husband once again.

Does anyone have experience in dealing with their MP's?

I contacted mine yesterday and they said it's still too early for them to inquire. They said I'd have to wait until at least April before they can jump in. Is this true? I've read in the forum where MP's have inquired much sooner. Also, do they have any affect on how quickly a file can get processed?

PS
I'm happy to see the thread is chugging along.
Missed you all.

Welcome back! We missed you :)

I contacted my MP, but it was for notaries. She was useless. Don't think that helps you much :(

Here's some of my latest knitting ladies and gents! One of my college friends is having a baby boy, thus all the blue baby hats, but the yellow is being donated to a single mom who has nothing for her baby, and the red is going to the hospital for the nurses to give a baby who's mom doesn't have much. :D

Awe we miss you here! I hope you had a great time! Leave takings are always so hard. Once you get back into your routine you'll feel better. It always take a week or two for me. It's harder for my husband as he drops me off at the airport and he goes back to an empty house right away while I have to travel.
