On New Years Eve of 2008, I met a guy I would eventually fall in love with.
Ninety days later, he left the country.
This blog is both an online diary of the thirty9 weeks until I see him again
& a recollection of the events that created 'us'.
A running commentary on a long distance relationship friendship.


A failed relationship - documented.
The final installment of 'Our Story' was never written & I doubt it ever will be.

Twenty9 Weeks


Oh my god! It's been ten whole weeks! It feels like I've not seen you in forever, but at the same time I can't believe how fast it's all gone. I can still clearly feel the electricity when I think of that second time we went to Hillarys.

We hit a pretty big pothole last week, one we both paid for, but I think it's helped in the long run. It feels a little like we've started fresh, and I've fallen in love all over again. It will be a tumultuous six months, I know we'll see the same frustration again, most likely on more than one occasion; now we know we can handle it and make it out alive.

I haven't heard your voice in a while, I do miss it but I'm coping fine, better than I thought I would. It's progress. We have had a lot of contact this week though and it's definitely helped. Somehow I thought we'd run out of things to say emailing daily, but I'm happy to be wrong. Having said that, it shouldn't surprise me really, given when we were together it would be at least seven hours and we never went quiet.

I've been writing up a few more of our evenings, I've finished the next one and am part way through the following one. I'm excited to see them up, but I may pace them a little slower... we've still got a long time to get through.

Love you.

P.S. In all the hassle with my laptop, moving songs and pictures, copying files and editing folders, I've lost the video I took of you. I found out when I tried to find it so I coul watch it. I'm so disappointed. It wasn't much, but I liked knowing I had it, to watch whenever I wanted *sad face*
