Maybe it wasn't exactly the Grinch himself, but more so a paperwork error, but my Christmas spirit was stolen nonetheless. And since I'm now (slightly) removed from the situation and have put the ordeal somewhat behind me I think I'm ready to talk about it. I mean Christmas came and went and I'm still in one piece, so there you go.
Most of you know I'm supposed to be moving to Korea to be with my husband, and the only thing standing in my way is officially approval from the Army. I mean I could buy a plane ticket myself and run the risk of being homeless when I get there, but who has the money for that. Plus it's really cold in Korea. I mean they're having snow on the regular right now, and being homeless in the cold is not something I think I could handle. It might have something to do with the fact that I practically freeze my ass off in our 35 degree North Carolina winter. I'm just saying..take a look at the difference. Even the Mac knows it's cold in Korea.
So yea, back to my point, someone had apparently lost track of our sponsorship packet and it never actually made it where the tracking site said it had been sitting for over a month. And after some prodding along, we're still waiting, with no apparent time frame as to when we should actually hear something back.
With all of that being said it looks like I'll be spending New Year's alone, and since our one year anniversary just happens to be New Year's Day it seems like that will be the perfect time to eat cake and hope for a better and more productive 2010. And on top of that list of being more productive, I plan to update this more. My poor, lonely blog, I will try to no longer neglect you due to some amazing episode of one of the many shows I tune into every week. And when I feel that I'm sounding too whiney, I'll go ahead and complete the post anyway. I mean it is my blog after all.
