Sweet Nothing

Dearly beloveds, I've been batshit busy and gallivanting again and the result is 1092 unread entries in my Bloglines. I think I will have to admit defeat and start afresh. So apologies if I have missed any monumental news in the past two weeks! I will be a better nerd from now on! I hope Kek has her house in order. I hope Phil is painting the USA red. I hope YP is all psyched for her Edinburgh marathon. Okay, I am going to have to take a peek at a few. Just a wee handful, you know.

ANYWAY, I ONLY CAME HERE TO TELL YOU THE NEWS. It warrants capital letters. Oh I have discovered about 27 new shades of pure relief today.

All I have to say is YEA!!!! I'm so happy for you...one less thing that you have to worry about. Congrats you sophisticated Euro woman....no longer an Ozian...

Yikes, I'd be megastressed about that many bloglines to read. About bloody time they sorted your residency. Hope you had a big celebration :D

Yaaaaaaaay! I'm so thrilled for you, you must be SO relieved. And it most DEFINITELY warrants capital letters.

Most of my news just requires hyperlinkage.

Yay! I'm glad you're not going to be deported! And sometimes I have to nuke all the entries in my blog reader too. It's just too hard to keep up sometimes. I've been trying to keep my in-box completely empty too and it's even harder work. Too much information!

YAY!! Congratulations on becoming an official Scottish lassie! Knew those idiotic civil servants would come to their senses.

And thanks for thinking of me. I'm happy to report that yes, my house IS in order. I even posted photos.
:-D

CONGRATULATIONS! I'm glad to hear that everything worked out well. Now you can live in Scotland happily ever after... :)

1092 unread posts??? Wow. And I feel overwhelmed with my 208 feeds... What a wimp I am, eh?

I just found out your blog - I really admire your strength in achieving your weight goals.
I have none. (that is strength - weight goals I have).
I like your blog :-)

Hooray!

Careful not to lose touch with your roots though... they seem to sell Tim Tams in Sainsbury's now, did you know? :)

[31 · Posted by Phil · May 31, 2007 at 09:45 PM]

Yes, Phil has been painting the US red - and Canada!! Well, she's been having more down time in Canada, but that's a good thing :)

Great news for you!! Whoo hoo!!

I feel like such an idiot, more than a year behind and tearing up in my cubicle to see that you got your residency!

I apply for my American residency next year and would have an absolute fit if they denied it.
