Found out yesterday that Spence will have to go back to Edmonton after August 20th. For how long? Will he come back? What will happen to us? Your guess is as good as mine. *puke*

He needs to go back because he's Canadian...oh and because the US gov't is just a bunch of bullshit. He's here on a temporary work visa, which would be renewed for a second time on August 20th...which would be the start of his third year here. And according to his immigration lawyer, that's just not possible without some sort of miracle. So...his work visa expires on August 20th, and he has to return home. Before that, he needs to find a place to live and find a new job in Edmonton, so that he CAN live. Thereafter, he and his lawyers, hopefully, will figure out some way for him to come back for a longer duration. The whole thing is just a pain in the ass and very costly, and I'm just not really sure it's fair to him, to ask him to keep starting over, just so I can be with him. Now, if he were a mexican immigrant working here illegally, sending money back home to his family, the gov't would be pushing to keep him here and make him a citizen. Sure makes perfect sense to me *insert sarcasm here*. Everything is just really up in the air right now, and I may just be overdramatic. Believe me, I wish more than anyone that everything works out for us in the end.
