the nice things:
- The incredibly helpful financial aid lady who likes Sar is the one making our case for the "please give us some money so we can eat" emergency grant, we should have some kind of answer back in the next couple of weeks
- I have a huge costco bin of McCormick taco seasoning (second only to el pato chili sauce for seasoning taco meat)
- gardetto's
- the rules for the fresh talent scheme have changed and we can change Sar's visa status right now meaning we can both work full time, which means staying is actually a possibility again
- the constant burning sensation in my eyes
- lack of sleep
- a uncalled for prejudice against octopi
- american politics, watching the Daily Show (while funny) tends to make me cry at the thought of going home (not that I think UK/Scottish are any better, I am just blissfully unaware)
