last october i put in an application with the US DoS Diversity Visa Lottery System ...

i am now waiting to see if i get a letter requesting more information and an interview ...

if all goes well then i get to acquire a green card and the right to live and work in the USA ...

today when i got home there was a letter waiting for me that had been franked in the USA ... i rushed excitedly inside only to discover that it was from Montana instead of Kentucky (apparently where my much awaited letter will come from!)
