H stopped by this morning to pick up passports. I explained what he would need to get extensions on all of our permits (which I had already told him yesterday, but he still hadn't done anything about). I had our other IDs stuck inside his passport, on the page of the missing visa and opened it to show him where the IDs were.

Just as he was about to leave, I said with a big smile "It's a felony to tamper with your passport, y'know..."

His reply was "Huh?" and then "What?" and then he started to drive off.

A few hours later, he dropped by again to give our passports back to me, with permits extended for 10 years. Phew. Am relieved to have them back in my hands.
