I'm working from home today and conveniently, my special copy of my birth certificate arrived so on my way to/from the doctor, I'm going to attempt once again to get a passport. Last time, the room was so full it was unreal, the wait was over an hour. This time, I'll try the Sunnyvale post office, which from what my memory is saying, boasts a much shorter (like none) line. We'll see what happens.

I'm pleased to report that the dog next door who barks constantly is barking right now, and has been off and on for the last 30 minutes.
