Welp, my baptism date has finally been set. I will be received into the Church, via Baptism, on 2 DEC of this year. Of special significance to me, two days later is 4 DEC, the feat of the Entry of the Theotokos into the Temple, which is the day I was made a catechumen last year.

Mravaljamier!
It's a most auspicious day, Dec. 2 (N.S.) being, IIRC, the repose date both of Elder Cleopa of Romania and Elder Porphyrios of Greece.
Congratulations!

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
and both come out of your mouth
