Karen had a courtesy notification this morning, because people here are truly courteous; but I had a letter.
Welcome to the United States, it said. This is to inform you that your application for permanent residence has been approved.
I should get the card in the next three weeks, they say. Oh, and all this is still subject to this that and the other, and I do still face revocation, rescission (I had to look that one up) and/or removal if appropriate. But hey. I was just sitting at the lunch table with m'wife watching our dragonfly in the back yard, and thinking "I am legally allowed to do this, yay!"
To celebrate, I am making hummus and pitta bread, for those are universally cultural artefacts; and we are going to Jaym's place to hang out with people and eat stuffs and very possibly drink. Very possibly drink a lot, in my case. I'm allowed to, okay?
