2. I couldn't even tell you.
We are supposed to leave sometime in September.

I will ask at the post office tomorrow if they have an idea of the time it takes and PM you tomorrow.


I hope you had a lovely Solstice!

7. I married 3 couples yesterday.
Everyone wants to be married on or around the Solstice.

Tomorrow I have 5 more couples to marry, two more on Sunday.

I am a very busy Witch.

I have been waiting for my passport for almost 3 months, I have been told it is on its way.

We will see.

9. Wow, that is busy!
We were handfasted on August 19th. It's the Roman observance of a holiday celebration to Jupiter and Venus. The celebrations called for libations of wine. Well, that sounded like a wedding if we ever heard one! :)

I hope you get your passport in time for your trip!


*I posted this before, but I think DU ate my post. :shrug:

16. I am not leaving until next year but I thought it would be a good idea to have a passport.
Just be prepared for a wait, hope yours comes faster then mine.

18. Me too!
This trip came up fast on our radar since it's for scientific research. It's good that it can be pushed back if need be.

Where are you going?

19. Send me a postcard.
I am Czech on my mother's side.

I am planning to go there one day myself and meet up with some very distant cousins.

4. I shouldn't have been talking to you?
My husband has the same name as a democratic congressman. We worry if he's going to be on the NFL just because of that.

I'm going off to be a Bohemian!

5. Such a shame
Edited on Fri Jun-22-07 06:07 PM by hippywife
to put such a pretty face on that ugly piece of shit new passport format. On the other hand, it can only improve it.

Hope you get it in time for your trip. :hi:

6. Aw, that's sweet.
It's not as bad as having to share your birthday with asshat-in-chief, though.

That really sucks for me. :cry:

11. To the Czech Republic for 3 months.
We are also planning a few side trips. One to Venice and one to Paris.

My husband is going over to do research, and I get to go!

Here is the town where we will be staying:

14. I plan on it!
I have a lot of fear about traveling and leaving my home for 3 months. I hope the fear subsides after I'm on the plane.

There will be lots and lots of pictures.

15. do they really tell you not to smile?
It's been about 9 years since I had a passport photo taken and I hear that now they tell you not to smile. Is that true or BS?

BTW I'm totally jealous of your trip!

17. The girl didn't say anything about it.
My husband smiled in his, too. Admittedly, we had them taken at Kinko's so I'm sure they don't care if you smile or not as long as you pay them the $14.



I'm scared of my trip! Although, I hope to meet both Heidi & CMW and MissHoneyChurch on my trip, which isn't all that scary.

:hug:
