Depression and More Wedding Stuff

Well, now that I have to sit here and just wait, my depression just seems to be getting worse.

I love going to the Visa Journey forums and talking to fellow Canadians, but the other country sections are depressing.

They bitch and complain about how they have to wait a WHOLE 14 to 30 days for their interview and shit. Boo hoo. I'd trade with them any day. ANY DAY.

I'd LOVE to see how they'd react to having to wait 90+ days to even be assigned a date, then waiting another month or so on TOP OF THAT. Seriously?

My fiance's congressman or senator is going to get a very nice nasty letter about me having to wait for such a long time for an interview when I get down to the US.

I'm Canadian. We have great relations with the US, we're connected to them by landmass, we speak English, we're not known for visa fraud... and yet we get into the US at the slowest rate compared to a country who has crappy relations with the US, is on the other side of the world, has a high potential to commit visa fraud and may not even speak a word of English? Seriously, what the fuck is that. And here I thought I was LUCKY to live in Canada. Seriously. It's revolting.

And it turns out that Montreal has lost a lot of their staff over the summer. They either weren't showing up or just quit. I read this on the visa forums. Here's hoping they open another consulate for us so they can start moving people to other consulates and unclogging Montreal.

On the wedding note, well nothing really.

For now I'm giving up on my May 15th date. Who knows what even going to happen anymore, seeing as I might not even have my interview till late February/early March. I really do hope they fix the lack of employees at Montreal somehow.

I don't want to move back home.
