25 days.

25 days. I can't believe I'm meeting him in 25 days. I don't think I'll believe this is real until I get to the airport. I'm so excited and so nervous.

I just can't wait to finally know what it feels like to be wrapped in his arms, to feel his breath on my neck, to feel him between the palms of my hands. Real, tangible, alive. I can't wait to be able to say good morning without touching my computer. I can't wait to share our first hug, first kiss, the first time we look into each others eyes with nothing to say, the first "I love you" whispered into an ear, the first night next to each other, the first picture together, and, yes, even the first goodbye.

We'll part from each other with memories and an idea of what life will be like when we're finally together. We'll part knowing every contour and expressioin of the others face, we'll know the texture of the others hand and how it fits with our own, we'll know the heat of the others lips and the feel of our bodies next to each other. We'll part knowing what life with the other is like, instead of just the view from the other end of a webcam.

The last stretch

In one month it will be the 14th of November. The day before I meet him. Everything is booked. All that's left to do is countdown. I'm getting really excited and really nervous. The anticipation is exciting... but it's been so prolonged... I just want to meet him. We've been planning this since 5 months ago. We started the countdown at 160 days. And now we're at 32. The days are moving quickly now. I'm excited! I can't wait to finally be in his arms!

Time is winding down!

Time is winding down quickly now. Only 46 days! We're both so excited to meet each other and spend time together. I need to figure out what I'm going to do for luggage and get a few last minute things. And I need to book the hotel >.< I wish this could have been done earlier, but it will be done by the end of next week.

Life is still awesome in general. I love my job and Scott and I have found ways to still be we each other every day even with the time difference and both of us working full time, so that's good.

We're getting close to the one month to go mark and I have a feeling that counting down the last month is going to fly by. I'm nervous but so excited! I can't wait to be able to say good morning without turning on my computer. :)

2 months!!

2 months from today I will be meeting Scott for the first time!! I'm so excited! He also got his passport in the mail today!

:)

We booked our flights!!!!

He is leaving England early in the morning (6:30 am) on the 15th of November. He'll fly to Paris and be there for a few hours *jealous*. Then he will make the very long flight to Salt Lake City, Utah. He will arrive in the early afternoon.

I will be getting off work at about 1:30 pm. I'm going to go straight to the airport to meet him. Our flight doesn't leave for a few hours after that, but it will give us a chance to meet for the first time and get all the mushy emotional stuff done without rushing to our plane.

We will then fly to California, arriving in the early evening.

On the 23rd of November, we will fly back to Utah really early in the morning (yuck). Then we will drive to see my grandparents so they can meet him. Then come to my house so that he can meet my family. We'll hang out for the evening and play games or something probably. Then we'll go to a hotel for the night.

The next day, we're going to drive around the city so I can show him around a little. His flight home leaves around 5:00 pm. So I'll drive him to the airport, with enough time to check in, and watch half of my heart walk away to be 5000 miles apart again.

Red Roses

Today I received a surprise delivery. My step mom answered the door and brought it up to me. She knocked on my door and said I think you have an admirer. She knew who it was from, but still. Scott had called a flower company here and had 3 beautiful red roses sent to me in a vase along with a teddy bear and a balloon that says "I love you". He just did this "Just because" I've never even received such a gift from a boy in the United States! He is so amazing! Here's pictures.

Plane tickets

So as I stated in my last post, we can now afford our vacation in November. However, there was one last thing that could potentially stop us; my work telling me I couldn't go on Vacation. I spoke to my manager though, and he said we could figure something out and it wouldn't be a problem. Woohoo! So Scott has sent his passport papers and as soon as we find out he's approved, we're going to book our flights. We've found flights that will bring him through Salt Lake, so we're going to be flying to California together. I'm so excited! I just want to get the flights booked so that it will feel like it's really about to happen. After we do that, we'll book the hotel and start looking into what we'll be doing in California. It's less than three months now until we leave. :D
