The trip was a success.
I went to Target and bought all sorts of Target-y stuff. I went to Trader Joes twice and bought all sorts of Joes-y stuff. I bought some Easter candy in case the Easter bunny gets stopped by the U.S. government again this year. I ate as much Asian food of as many varieties as I could stuff into my little face.
In fact, I ate so much that when I went to put on my fancy interview duds for yesterday's test, I could barely zip up my pants. Seriously, people. Just one week in the US and I can't fit in my clothes. Not good.
But I passed! I passed the FSOT. Despite my pants, which seem to be a recurring issue in my quest for gainful employment.
So now I am taking my stuffed-to-the-gills suitcase and dragging myself back to the airport.
Time flies. So, it seems, will I.
Back soon...

Some people allow success to go to their heads. Now we know it can go to your pants.
Congratulations.
Wait, was this the FSOT or the FSOA? Congrats either way!!!
Nicely done, Donna! Safe travels home to your family.
Congratulations!! And the fact you were able to eat, shop, eat, and shop while home is fabulous!
Congratulations on passing the test and the nice Russian score.
FSOA, right?
Either way, congrats on that AND the Russian test! hope to work with you one day!
Gonna chime in with the above...Congrats!! Sounds like you've had your share of dead-end EFM jobs (I read through your 'pants' blog entry) and hopefully now that you're freed up a bit, you'll get to do something you've been longing to do! So very happy for you!!
Wonderful news Donna! Congratulations... I'm studying Arabic now with someone heading to Jordan. So I think of you frequently. ;-)
