What is the opposite of smoothly?

Seriously. I just found out this morning, completely by chance, that I am oblivious to the rest of the world and apparently live under a rock. When did postage go up to 41 cents? And why didn't anyone tell me? I believe it is the civic duty of the USPS to announce these things in a timely and very public manner. You know, send something to your house via the mail, maybe post fliers or even hire one of those airplanes with the banners to fly around for a week or so and make sure that those of us who barely know what day of the week it is, let alone the date (thank goodness for Timex watches), know these things that can affect us in such profound ways.

So needless to say, I am expecting to get the extra info we needed to send to CHI for our application back in the mail. Apparently it takes about a week to get it back according to the envelope Travis just got back in the mail, so any day now it should be popping up. Joy. I think we may make a run at the record for longest time to get an application through the process. See, there is always a silver lining.

So hopefully things won't take too much longer and things will actually begin to go smoothly with our process. Perhaps this is us just getting all of the hiccups over with in the beginning. How great would that be? But I will definately keep you all posted, so no worries there.
