La Emabjada... Puchica.

So yeah, I went to the Mexican Consulate today after dropping off the parents at PDX. I had talked to this guy at the consulate on the phone TWICE before coming, and both times I told him which kind of visa I need, and asked if I can apply for it in Portland. Both times he told me yes, I should come to Portland. So, when I got there today, this SAME guy laughed and told me they don't do visas for estadounidences in Portland, I'll have to get in in Mexico City. So... why couldn't he have just told me that over the phone?! I have a feeling this is the first of many frustrating experiences in the visa process. I wonder how many times I'll go to Mexico City only to find that for some reason I'll have to come back another day... Patience, right?
