"Do you know where you are going?"
That's the first thing that people ask when you say you are going into the Peace Corps. Ironically, it is the last thing you know! It's funny, because as many of the Peace Corps folks out there know, Katie and I are well along the process after clearing Medical, Dental, and Legal, but to someone outside the process, it sure seems like we have hardly started.
You start to say that you know that you are going to Latin America...but then you find it hard not to caveat that with some statement that even that could change. You've read too many accounts of people getting nominated for one region, then invited to another.
I'm hoping that we do know something by around the end of April. That seems realistic based on how invites are processed. It wouldn't be surprising if it were later though. Everything about the PC has a caveat :-) Still, it will be nice when we have an answer the THE question.

I think a more interesting question is: what's the deal with that earring? fancy pants
