Yay, my passport is stamped

I went up to the city this morning to go to Immigration, one more time. This was for my referral appt that I got on Saturday. I went to one door first, then got sent around the corner. I was able to skip the line to get in, then went thru security. They intially sent me to the very long line to where you get a ticket. I went back to security and showed them my referral appt again, and asked if I need to be in the line. I was able to skip the line, and just go straight to the counters and hand in my passport.
10 mins later, my name was called, and now I have a lovely stamp that expires in a year. Yay!
Now when I leave the country, I can get back in!

Wonderful news! That's great! Sorry it was such a pain to go through, though.

True story: the last time I went to Tijuana, Mexico, they wouldn't let me back into the U.S. because I didn't have proper ID! That was a little scary.
