The boss is out of town.
My green card just got approved.
It's beautiful outside.
Enough blogging for today.

A touch of dark comedy for all the working stiffs out there:
Dennis Markuze aka David Mabus on a Television News Story ... the story is inaccurate in a number of minor ways that obscures an interesting truth, but it is a moment in time worth savoring:
When my baby nurses from his mom, he can see her face and bond with her because he was designed to do so by god. Like how a banana is designed by god to fit comfortably in the hand for eating, or maybe just carrying around.
What am I talking about?

It's great when things like this happen.
Have a good day and congrats on the green card. :)
That's almost a haiku. With the following alteration, you'll be there:
The Boss? Out of town.
My green card just got approved.
Oh, beautiful day!
Congrats! It's nice to see someone succeeding in their postdoctoral career...
Congrats on the green card. So, how long did you have to wait? I was head-hunted by a private company in the US in April 2006 and we have just now reached the stage where the National Visa Center is forwarding my file to the US embassy in the country where I live. Then I'll have to wait ~2-3 months before being called in for a medical and an interview. Then I can go. The immigration attorney hired by my future employer estimates October this year = 1.5 years processing time in total.
Thanks Chris for reformating my post!
Ole, I sent out all the paperwork in October, so ~9 months.
Terrific news. Life indeed is good.
And 9 months is great. I think it helps being Canadian. I'm expecting mine to take over a year from when I send the paperwork.
Goodluck Sunil - I have to say that the "quicker" waiting time probably had to do with my marrying an American, rather than being Canadian.
