Moved out, moved in

Did not go to the institute like I said I was going to with my BF. We decided it was better to call in sick until they got sick and fired me. Meanwhile, Saturday BF and I moved all of my stuff into his apartment. He has a three room place and we kind of live together like we are married. He is super clean, but not to the point of being weird about it. I love him so much. He is so cute. So Monday I called in sick. Tuesday I called in sick. Wednesday I called in sick. Thursday I called in sick. Then Thursday afternoon I get this call from the director. He wants to know where I am. I told him I was at home. He said he and the head teacher are knocking on the door to my apartment now and I am not answering. OMG! I quickly changed the story to being at my BF apartment and guess what they did. They went inside my apartment!!! Can they do that!!!??? Then they started asking me where my things were and they sounded angry, so I hung up. Friday they called back and said I was being fired. I asked about the release letter and they said they wouldn't give me one. I cried and hung up. My BF called the director back and talked to him for 15 minutes. BF talked and director yelled. When the director yelled me BF would hold the phone away from his ear and make funny faces. Did I mention how cute he is?! Somehow he got the director to agree to give me a release letter. I asked him how he did it and he said that you have to shame them into giving it. He said the reputation of the school should be more important than a letter. He was very convincing. Thanks Babe!

    oh come on melinda, the entire poker community is more interested in what is going on with your deportation status than the World Series of Poker...Do tell.

    You have a great blog here! I've been reading it, and found it to be very interesting.

    I have a blog, too. It's all about how to purchase the toenails and fingernals of children in Botswana with NO MONEY DOWN!

    Feel free to check it out!

    Thanks, P. Prior to visiting that site I had been paying as much as 20% down when buying nail clippings from Batswanian children. With your help, I was able to make my own start-up company which is going public next week! I wish I could have gotten in on the ground floor of this thing, how can you not make money? Step 1) buy toenails. Step 3) profit. It's so easy a monkey could do it!

    Melinda,

    In honor of Independance Day and Canada Day, I want to apologize for directing all this unwanted attention to you. I didn't expect that you would be perceptive enough to see I was having a harmless little joke at your expense. I do apologize for underestimating you.

    I also want to apologize for the significant 'attention' you've had to endure at the hands of the poker-blogging community. We are for the most part reasonably well-adjusted members of society and have only one or two ex-cons or likely soon-to-be-convicteds amongst us.

    You have to know by now that no fewer than three, and maybe as many as ten, of us have fallen deeply in fascination with you. For all our uneven attempts to communicate that fascination - we should speak in simpler terms: We (I) think you're great. I mean that sincerely. Well, as sincerely as a guy like me can get. This blog is the best blog I have ever read, because it is a genuine reflection of the byzantine mind that created it. But you should post more pictures of yourself in bikini's. That would definitely be a plus.

    And maybe your BF too, who I have nothing against, just in case he is a Ukranian Serial killer after all, secretly finds some of this a little funny too. I know my wife does, but she thinks it's probably time I grow out of this little addiction.

    So instead, how about a truce...you keep posting (cause I personally am dying of curiosity to know what is going with you) and we will sink quietly back into the background from which we came. I personally will not post a single comment unless you request it, and I'm pretty sure the hellions I roll with will respect your space too.

    But for God's sake Mel, keep posting. It's great stuff, and I want to know what happens next to everyone's favorite JapaHapa.

    One last thing: How could you pass me over for Waffles? I am the one who found you [well Thirsty gets most of that credit to be fair], raised you from obscurity and made you a household name in some very odd households. No accounting for taste I guess, but the mind reels...

    Lastly, you may have a twin. I recently was emailed by someone who looks uncannily like you. Small world. Be well our little buttercup, and may Fate and the Visa office treat you well.

    As soon as you get that release paper in hand, go to the Immigration Department and let them know.

    This means you'll have to take a visa run — like to Fukuoka, billed as the most livable city in East Asia — for a ninety-day opportunity to find another job.

    What I'm getting at is that once they have signed a release, you are not authorized to stay, which is why you have to quickly leave and come back on a tourist visa (or another work visa, if you can get one that fast).
