11 Weeks

I was reading a blog yesterday about sustaining a relationship when you don’t see each other.

B comes home tomorrow after an 11 week tour. I saw him for six days; four when I flew out to the east coast and two when the tour came through Detroit. I’m really damn proud of us for making it work.

Constant text messaging, aim conversations, and late-night phone calls (even when I answer at 4am and can’t form a cohesive sentence) are what holds us together. Never underestimate the power of a dirty text message.

Also me coming to grips with the fact that being upset or angry about not seeing him changes nothing, it only makes it more difficult for both of us. So I have become very accepting of the situation. Plus…I get flowers more than any girl I know!

Now I’m getting a little teary-eyed thinking about how lucky I am, so I’m going to quit typing while I’m ahead.

Picking up B in 10 hours…yayayayay!!! yay!
