A tad bit pissy…

  1. I booked a flight to Ottawa, ON for the last week of April.
  2. I have a Canadian Passport, 2-3 years old.
  3. I sent for a new birth certificate on November 3, 2006.
  4. I haven’t received a registered receipt that my original BC and application were received.
  5. USPS says it will take 60 days to perform an inquiry and tell me what they found as to why I don’t have a receipt.
  6. I have 3 months to get my new BC, apply for a New Passport and receive it — ya right.

Apparently, I can get back into the United States without a passport because a valid permanent resident alien card can be substituted.

So I guess my question now to answer is: Can I get into Canada with something other then a Passport or can I use my old one with name change documents?

And I am back…

I won’t comment a whole lot on the previous week. I want to keep some things to myself.

I will say that I had a wonderful week though. It was great to see my best friend in the world again and hang out. Their wedding was beautiful and I am so happy for them both. I know they will be truly happy with each other for the rest of their lives.

I was the best man, I gave a speech which everyone said I did a wonderful job on. I was hoping that I wasn’t going to mess it up. I almost cried myself while I was speaking it.

I am just so happy for them both and I know they will always be behind me 100%.

Well, tomorrow is the big day. At 3:30 PM my best friend and his fiance are tying the knot. We had the rehearsal this afternoon and the bachelor party last night. The party was a lot of fun.

It is kinda cold up here. There is no green on the plants, no buds on the trees, it’s like a time warp back a season. The plane ride was okay. The first plane was bumpy, the pilot had to fly around a huge storm and then the turbo prop plane wasn’t much fun either. It was really loud and rough. I am not looking forward to that short plane ride back.

I am having fun up here. It is great to see some of my family again and my best friend. I will be flying back on Monday afternoon and staying the night with my sister in Atlanta that night since I get in late. I’ll see y’all later in the week. Bye for now, Erin.

I haven’t had too much excitement lately

I haven’t been too active on my blog lately, I appologize but I haven’t really done much.

I did graduate. I had the ceremony on the 15th and now have my degree in a frame :) It’s been nice since I been out of school. I have been bustin’ my little butt on my new website though. I have spent tons of hours on it since I been outta school and had time.

I still have no job but I intend to look for one when I get back from Canada at the end of the month. I leave Monday for Canada. I am attending my best friend’s wedding and I’m his best man. I am so looking forward to seeing him and his fiancee again and seeing them get married. I’ll be back in Georgia on the 31st.

See y’all then…

I am having a really good time up here. Much needed get away from Augusta. I am now in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada visiting my best friend and his fiancee. I have never been to this city before. It is soo beautiful here. I got many pictures from around town, the Parliament building is really cool. It is soo great to be able to see my friend again, its been a couple years since we got to hang out.

Although being up here has made me realize something I thought I could overlook before but now I know I cannot and it complicates my life even more but I will not get into that now, maybe next time I’ll expand on that thought.

For now, see ya later, eringurrl in canada.

Hello from Canada!

Hi everyone! Yes, I am on my vacation. I am having a good time up here. Today is my grandmother’s birthday (she turned 80!). Its nice to see some of my cousins, aunts and uncles again. On a more serious note, I think so far, getting away from Augusta/home is going to do me some good. I don’t know why but I am feeling better about myself. I am still having trouble here and there with my emotions and life in general but things just seem better since I left Friday. I leave Saturday to fly to Ottawa to see my best friend. I hope to have a blast with him! I havn’t seen him or his fioncee in 2 years now. Anyhow, thought I’d drop a little note for the ones who care. Take care everyone.
