Green is my new favorite color

Vidya has been awarded a provisional green card, meaning he can now apply for work anywhere. This is especially great news since as an engineer he needs special security clearance to work in many places. Also, since with the H1B anyone who hired him would have to spend thousands in legal fees; as a permanent resident he's "free". Now he has to get a "biometric scan" & we will be scheduled for an interview so they can make sure our marriage is legitimate (with his snoring, I must love him to marry him!) before he gets the permanent green card. So, hopefully this will mean he gets a job in his actual field sooner than later so we can move out of my parents' house & on with life. With all the bad stuff that's been going on the past month or so, this good news is most welcome!
