Appeal dismissed
...as in, we won.
Dear England,
We've gotten to know each other a bit over the last year and a half, and I've got to say, you have some wonderful points. I do so like your daffodils, your green fields, your Oxford, and many of your people.
But honestly, I'd really like it if we could take some of the drama out of our relationship, y'know? I get it, I do - some people thrive on the highs and lows, the terror and the joy. Me, I feel that I've had my share of heartache. I don't want any more sleepless nights over visa issues, no more bursting into inappropriate tears at work when people ask about my future. I'm kinda ready to settle down in peace.(And by peace, I mean working really hard.)
Do you think maybe, you could like, just, go easy for a bit? That would be swell.
Warmest regards,
Dr B
Thank you everyone for your words of comfort and support along this way. It's probably still not going to be easy, but I feel I've got a fighting chance for now. And I'm determined this next year will be wonderful, since no-one knows what may be ahead. So here's to May morning, Tindersticks on Sunday, and a springtime long weekend. And Paris in May. And a new house in June (and maybe now I can stay for the duration of the lease!).
