It's gonna be a long two months

I miss him.

His partner is being great. My partner is being great. Our date was really really really great. But I miss him. It drives me to distraction, and while there's none of that pre-face-to-face-meeting uncertainty any more, now there's knowing how marvelous his company is, and how good it is to touch him and kiss him and laugh with him, and that has its own ouchiness. I'm so pathetic. And through it all, I'm as happy as I've ever been, so it feels weird to whine about this.

I know, sweetie. It's hard. But it's so worth it :)

And, no, you're not pathetic. You're cute :)

It had *better* be worth it. ;-)

How's life? Is aliciar drunk yet? ;-)

[datagoddess.livejournal.com]

Her flight doesn't get here until 6:30 pm. But she will be shortly afterwards ;)

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Oh, man! Those hours-before-meeting can be harsh. *hugs*

(I must've driven lcohen and ayana nuts when I was getting ready to see him. I know all I could think about was can't-be-late-can't-be-late-can't-be-late!)

Yeah, I'm bouncy-can't concentrate-restelss-bouncy-bouncy-bouncy.

Did I mention bouncy??

And thanks for the "Sunny Came Home" earworm, BTW :P

[lcohen]

we just called you the white rabbit ;-) .

and just for the edification of others-- we got her there in plenty of time ;-) !

I hear ya. *smile*

It's a pain, but it's worth it though, isn't it? Better to miss someone wonderful than not have them in your life in the first place. That's how I see it, anyway.

*hugs*

Oh, yes, it's utterly worth it. I'm comparing it to when TOTGA and I were falling in love long-distance and I knew it was unlikely I would *ever* see him in person. That was *way* worse. Here's a man who has room for me in his life. I don't want to understate how incredibly wonderful that is.

[datagoddess.livejournal.com]

Amen. You said a mouthful.

Signed, the person picking up one of her LDRs at the airport in (checks clock) 4.5 hours :)

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

So exciting. Couldn't happen to two cuter subversive-soccer-moms. ;-)

[quietshell.livejournal.com]

Ack! I nearly choked! I should know better . . .shame on me.

;-)

[datagoddess.livejournal.com]

I'm a soccer-aunt, though, not a soccer mom. Although I fit the "profile", minus the kids ;)

[quietshell.livejournal.com]

Enjoy your distraction. I know that 'missing him' feeling all too well, but it's *so* worth it IMO :)

And FWIW, I don't think you're whining at all :)
Many hugs if you'll have them.

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Nice userpic!

Yeah, I'm happy and enjoying all the Disney Chemicals. :-)

And, um, Shell-hugs? I might want some after someone revives m---


*thunk*

[quietshell.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

You really know how to make a girl smile and feel loved :) ::happy smiley sigh::

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Easy to love you, dear. So how's life? How was the move? How the hell are you in general? I suppose I could send you an email and ask, but hey, here I am and here you are, and y'know?

[kightp.livejournal.com]

Awwww, great big *empathy hugs* from here.

Even though my LDR and I have been together for a year, and even though he's been managing to make it down here 1-2 times a month, I still get all wistful and lonesome and touch-hungry when he goes home.

Ah, well. Nothing wrong with wanting it ALL.

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Mmm, *hugs*, thanks. :-)

I'll do my best not to start envying 1-2 times a month (as opposed to once every 2 or so months).

And yes, wanting it all is fine. In fact, I think we *deserve* it all, don't you? :-)

[kightp.livejournal.com]

*abso-frickin'-lutely*

Starting with those teleporters ...

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, teleporter!

[nolly.livejournal.com]

Once every 2-3 months is about what I manage with mine.

Email and IM help with the missing, for me. And, I don't know how to explain it, excatly, but time to get used to the lDR being what it is? It's sort of close...

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Email is helping, though at 40-50+ a day, we might need to slack off on that eventually. ;-) And yeah, I'm sure time will help. I know all this stuff, but it's really helping to have folks remind me of it. Thanks. *hugs*

[krasota.livejournal.com]

i didn't think you had enough comments, so i'm adding the 51st.

*hugs* and *slurps* for you.

awww!

Glad to hear things went well with Guy ('cause I'm quite fond of the both of youse, and it makes me all frubbly hearing about you being happy together). for the ouchiness...I've described the sensation as "feeling like the short end of Siamese twins". It's a bittersweet, happy kind of ache, but it's still an ache. And, as others have been saying, email, IM, phone, snail letters do help ease it a bit.

to you and cutepoetchick

You're so sweet. Thank you, cute thing. I like the Siamese twins image, even if it does make me giggle. :-)
