We now find ourselves in a tiny flat, two streets up from the Atlantic Ocean, and very much on our own. We have been here for a year now, and the end is not in sight. As such, I have decided that it is high time to start writing about this mess, and try to do so with humour, tact, and perhaps growing affection. Should you end up reading all of this, I hope you enjoy the ride.

Let us begin.
Neither of us asked for this. When I first came to Nottingham in 2002 it was primarily to study, but also with a view to not having to leave again. My years at university were wonderful and fulfilling, and the life I built afterwards with my friends around me was perfection. In 2008 I was forced, through visa problems, to spend a year in the United States. This only reinforced my desire to get back home to England, which I did in the beginning of 2009. During that year I met my current partner, J, whom I moved in with in October of 2009. At the end of that year I was due to go back to the States, my visa in peril once more, until we decided that we were actually so fond of one another that we would not separate and would instead move to Canada.

More to hear from Kat, yay!
ReplyDeleteAh heck. This was my old domain name before I moved to wordpress. Apparently I forgot to unsubscribe to the feed.
ReplyDeleteThink I wound up all the technical stuff. Just to let you know that you might still get some of my old traffic (good or bad, I don't know.)
Hope you come to think of Canada as your home and have years of happy blogging.
Maybe I won't unsubscribe ;)

How strange, I did not know that could happen! I was amazed that the domain was open, to be honest. Thank you for letting me know, and the kind words. It is nice to run across another person who appreciates Jeeves and Wooster and yéyé girls!
