My Research Plans Concerning the 1940 Census

The 1940 Census is due to be released on April 2nd, 2012.

Several other geneabloggers have been discussing their plans for research upon its release.  I suspect I will be waiting a couple months before I dive in.

Why?
1) I am getting married in April. I expect to be busy. (Yes, my fiancee and I are sharing the responsibilities. I'm not the type to relax on the sofa and let her do all the work.)
2) I would actually rather wait for the records to be indexed.  There are a handful of ancestors I should be able to find without too much difficulty by browsing the images, because I know where they should be living. I will need to wait for the rest.

I expect I won't be able to resist searching for my parents at some point in April, as a necessary distraction from the wedding plans.
