It seems that some of the 9 pages of forms I just faxed to Sun’s
administrator in St. Petersburg (or “St. Pete” as she
calls it) were particular to the visa agency she was
using to work with the Russian government to get me
the invitation letter so that Visa Network (the visa
agency in San Francisco) can get me the visa from
the consulate. The new visa agency she just started using in St. Pete
does not need my credit card or the forms – just a high quality scan
of my passport to send to Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The photocopy of the passport I faxed her was not clear enough.
My passport has been with Visa Network in San Francisco – 30
miles and lots of traffic north of my Menlo Park office – since
15 November when I started trying to get a Russian visa.
Visa Network says they will send a scan of my passport
in email today.
I am feeling like the old lady who swallowed a fly…
- There was an old lady who swallowed a cow.
- I don’t know how she swallowed a cow!
- She swallowed the cow to catch the goat…
- She swallowed the goat to catch the dog…
- She swallowed the dog to catch the cat…
- She swallowed the cat to catch the bird …
- She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
- That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her.
- She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
- But I dunno why she swallowed that fly
- Perhaps she’ll die.
