I've been so depressed lately I don't even feel like posting anything positive. I miss him so much crying.gif and VSC apparently has better things to do. mad.gif

I can't believe nothing since Thursday. I'm going to try and send out positive vibes in my sleep that SOME folks get some late night texts.

Lately I can't even stay distracted by my creative projects. unsure.gif

And then is also seems to be that London is doling out interviews almost 3 months from approval. Will he even be here by Labor Day?

I'm depressed. US/UK are the slowest governments. huh.gif
