is all I’ve got, people.
My Visitor’s Visa is up and I’m returning to Canada next Saturday night. Keeping the peace with the US is paramount. Yes, that is an LA reference.
Since April, I’ve been a tourist living with a legal alien. The alien and I thought there’d be a little more lenience with our Canadian common-law status but the answer is no and the move was hasty and the bottom line is that I must heed this 6 month stint so that I may return with a fatter, better Visa (accessible through native soil only). This means, the alien and I must live apart from one another for the first time. It’s the most tragic thing, ever, but we’re trying not to be sappy as there’s love and Skype. And Christmas. And visits…
Things I am looking forward to: WORK! FRIENDS! BULK BARN! PANTS! CELSIUS! KILOMETRES! Even paying rent and shopping for liquor during bank hours. Does anyone know if it’s still gonna be apple-picking season in the first week of November? Who wants to come with!?
But, until next Saturday, I am in Los Angeles. Let’s keep the blog as LA-based as possible until my departure. What better way to do this than to post some paparazzi pics of Jay Leno and his ridiculous steam-powered car making a lunch break for some Taste Chicago?
Turning off his car:
Amigos lovin’ the attention:

I can’t believe your 6 months has gone by! I am sad for you as I know it is going to be hard but you guys can do it! Keep your chin up!! When can you come back and what visa are you going to get to get back to your ‘alien’? I will be thinking of you lots. xoxo
