Well....
No passport when we got home Saturday night after boating. Therefore, I'm right now planning for a Miami trip instead of taking care of last minute details for a long awaited vacation.
I called the Passport Information Center (again) Friday night at 11:30pm hoping to get some last minute good news. Instead I got information that my passport is on step 3 of 8. I'm beginning to wonder if my parents lied and maybe I'm an adopted illegal alien. In any event, since I had the PIC rep. on the phone, I decided to make an 8am appointment at the Miami Regional Passport Agency. I was told by the rep that I would receive an appointment confirmation via email within the hour.
So here I sit on Sunday afternoon, on hold (again) with the PIC to find out why I didn't get my email. I'd hate to drive 5+ hours to Miami to find out I didn't have an appointment and according to their website if you don't have an appointment, you wont get in.
It really stinks that I have to now go out and get 2 more passport photos, make hotel reservation (unless I leave at 2:30am) and rent a car (I don't feel like putting 600 miles on my car).
Also, taking time off from work 2 days before I leave for 2 weeks is a hassle and disruptive to the office.
I cant imagine what someone in my position would have to do if they lived in say Wyoming or South Dakota......they would have to fly to Los Angeles or Chicago I guess.
By the way.....been listening to crappy hold music for 37 minutes now.
