Opened a new checking account here in the midwest - guess that means I'm kinda settling down here permanent like huh?
Need to open another one for savings/international transactions but I'll leave that one for Saturday.
Looked at this insane list of forms I need to get filled out for immigration!
Looked at a list of doctors in the area from whom I need to get the physical exam done for the federal government - of the hundreds listed in the county, naturally only ONE is in my vicinity
I'm trying to estimate the cost of the physical exam + payment to federal government for filing of paperwork ... I figure that enterprise to cost me $1000 alone. I'm still looking for good immigration lawyers - I suppose they'll cost me $4,000 - $5,000. In anycase, the immigration thing will end up costing me about $6,000 .... and I don't even have my first paycheck yet!!!!
Talked to my director about driving down to Springfield on Friday (I need to miss about half-day work) and throw down with the stupidly incompetent State Board of Nursing. I either walk out of that bloody office with my liscence or I'll burn that place down!
Seriously though, it's been over 6 weeks since I applied for the license. It's taking an absurdly long time for the bastards to stamp a piece of paper and send it over to me. I can't do
anything without my license
Getting cold here - windchill has already dropped it to 27 F
