You have heard of 15 minutes of fame?
Well I got my 15 minutes of happiness yesterday.
Got my passport (Yay), now back to the putrid muck of immigration processing.
Just got off the phone, more fees, a fee cause they had to put my processing on hold, $200 bucks so they can kick someone in the ass to get them to look at my paperwork. $150 bucks to change my status from visitor to first time work permit. Needless to say this is AFTER the fact that they were processing my last visitor visa (for me to stay for another 6 months), which they put on hold due to the fact that the passport was gonna expire. Needless to say, there was an $85 buck processing fee to do that, so now that I am changing my status (visitor to worker, which could have been done earlier if I had a current passport *admit* that is ALL MY FAULT) .
So since I am on a new status, maybe I should get my money back for the visitor visa I do not need now??? Nope, they processed so they keep the $85 bucks, I guess this is symantics, cause I have not got a finalized visitor visa extension form (they send you one) so technically they have not processed it.
Ah well, some where in the dark recesses of my mind I plan to get all this money back from the Canadian Government in one way shape or form.

Well, back into a bad mood, just in time for the weekend to!!!!

For good news, we get a couch tomorrow, well a loveseat actually. One more thing for the cats to fight over......

I'll try to leave on a cheerfull note.

One of my favs, this was taken in Bermuda.
