Ummm.... Jennifer.... The Whitney lottery entry deadline is tomorrow at midnight Eastern Daylight Time. So you aren't too late to get into this year's lottery.
Also, you have come to the right place... There are ways to get permits, even if you don't score one in the lottery. This is the place to learn how.
I know this is a very short notice for such a monumental decision, but I certainly want you to know that you have more options.
