Got Passport!

As Katherine mentioned, I got my British passport on Friday! Isn't it beautiful? It's amazing what a sense of excitement and relief getting the passport was. It means a number of things. Most important, Katherine can now get her visa! But also, I'm no longer an American on a business trip, I'm in the country as a British citizen, permanent resident. That means that I get paid in pounds now, get national health care, etc. Just one more step in the process of actually being here, vs. living here, if that makes sense.

24-48 hours for the visa, here's hoping!

Everyone think good thoughts today, not for the visa, but because Katherine and Jenn are jumping out of an airplane!!!! Good luck ladies!
