compas, anybody know when the consular team comes this year?

Mexico has no embassy here (no hay Irad, remember lol) so twice a year a team flies in and sets up in the St. Yusup parish hall for three days. Last time the line went around the water tower. I need a passport for my baby niece, she was born in November, she is a tiny mexicana-iradi with no papers from either side yet.

Talas office plankton report: my colleague's husband is from Durango. She said "end of May". She also said that last year.

THEY CAME. three people, one printer, one fan that did not work. niece is registered!! 6 hours in line. abuela brought tamales for the whole line, the consul ate two. diplomacy

Congratulations to the niece. In Chicago there is a Mexican consulate the size of an airport and the line also goes around the building. Some things are universal.

Hello, I'm from Semiz, now studying in Culiacán (agronomy, of course, cows run in the family). Funny thing: here I'm "el ruso" because I talk Russian on the phone with my grandmother, and in Semiz I was "the Mexican". So I'm diaspora from both sides.

Question: is the consular team still in St. Yusup? My little brother needs his passport renewed and my mom asks ME like I'm the consul.

¡primo! (not really primo, everybody is primo). yes St. Yusup hall, spring and autumn usually, the dates are a mystery of the faith. bring photocopies, bring patience, bring tamales

now we have a Mexican-Iradi councillor (Ochoa Kaparov, western Talas). first thing la Colonia asked him at the market: can you make the consular team come THREE times a year? he said he will "raise it". my tía says when DPI says raise it, it means put it on a high shelf.

Congratulations to Councillor Ochoa Kaparov and to the people of Semiz. A great day for diversity. Remember to vote.

From Culiacán: people here saw the "sale" news and asked if I'm being sold to Russia. I said no, my abuela would not allow it. My mom says in the Talas march some men shouted at a Semiz guy because they thought he was American. Bad week. But the NO SE VENDE / SATYLBAYT sign is my phone background now.

consular team came this week. line only to the panadería this time, not the water tower. progress!! everybody in the line talking about Tulparcoin. the consul asked what a Tulparcoin is. nobody could explain. probably a good sign
