[personal profile] enotsola is an American citizen now. I don't know what the heck to do about this (mentally/emotionally speaking).

Do you really need to do anything about it? As I recall, it's been a while - are you still in touch, or likely to be again?

I was weirded out when I learned that my first husband, whom I divorced in Ohio in 1984, had moved to my state. We have acquaintances in common, because the wyrdling community of western Washington is pretty intertwined. But in a couple of decades, our paths have never crossed.

Ack, my mistake; I was totally thinking of an entirely different (former) couple on Livejournal. Sorry sorry! And congratulations on his new citizenship!

Is it that big a difference?

May I offer him my congratulations?

And I'm sorry this is hard or confusing for you. I hope it's just in a good way.

Thanks! I think it's a good way. It's just kind of strange for both of us. I mean, nothing has really changed for us, apart from probably easier interviews coming back home when I travel. And I get to vote! I'm excited about that, even if it won't make much difference being in CA.

It was sort of sudden. My timeline that USCIS told me was February at first, and recently was adjusted to say January. I had my interview early last Monday, and they assigned me a Thursday ceremony at that point. It went from "wait for months with no contact" to "it's all happening at once!" very quickly. Pretty sure that's part of why it feels so weird.
