How We Do It

Sometimes people ask, "How do you guys do it?"

To that I reply with a series of innuendos and hand puppets.

They quickly rephrase their question, "how do you deal with the distance?"

*Sigh*

The distance it a huge bitch to deal with, but at the same time, it doesn't affect how we feel about each other. We have a connection that just spans the 3000 miles like it's nothing.

We talk for hours without any concept of time. In other words, a quick call usually runs two or three hours long. (At this point the married couples are completely lost to this concept). Really, it doesn't matter what the topic is, or how we've arrived at it, but we banter like it's no body's business. (For proof, just check out my cell phone bill).

We also tend to treasure the little things far more than anything else. You’d be amazed how significant and wonderful a trip to the store can be when you're with the person that you've been starving for. I can't count how many times

"Everyday single day, everywhere I go, I have her on my mind, so to actually have her with me, there aren't words to describe it."

But the longing for one another does get difficult. There are so many nights where we lie in beds, thousands of miles away, just wishing we could roll over and kiss each other goodnight... simple little kisses...

In the end, it's better to miss the person that completes you than it is to remain completely incomplete.
