I hate red tape!!!!!!! (P.S. Happy Birthday Yemi!)

Today I got my Work Permit via FedEx. Hooray!
Thing is, I might have to change my plane ticket because I just finished the online application for my visa (F.Y.I. it's called a "Work permit holder more than 6 months" visa) & there are no appointments available for me at the British Consulate in NY before I leave for me to actually, physically receive it. That means I'm sending my visa app FedEx! According to my calculations it will get back to me on the day I'm scheduled to leave. Yikes!
Um...plan B is...non-existent. Well, secretly, patience is plan B.
I also have been unsuccessful at booking a B&B in Hillingdon as everything is already booked. Yikes again! Who knew the small hamlet of Hillingdon was the summer vacation hot spot in Britain?!?
My former Tango partner, Chris, made my day by telling me that he already has a phone for me. The number should be fourth coming and I'll send it out for everyone to reach me whenever I get it. Hooray!
The red tape of international bureaucracy is ratcheting up my stress level unnecessarily! Grr!

Welcome to 21st century stalking- um, I meant blogging! Now, you- yes you- can easily track my adventures wherever I am via this blog. Luckily for you, I'm self-centred enough to post here and deluded enough to believe you'll want to read it. I'm stateside until July 5th so I'll be easy to reach via phone until then. My email address, will remain the same, so that's my contribution to consistency. Hope you enjoy all that I have to share! Feel free to comment and share your 2 cents with me, as I'll be telling you all of my business!
