Absence makes the heart grow fonder? I can’t see how that’s possible.
I dropped Michael off at the airport this morning at 5:30.
It was cold, dark and rainy when we left the house… Which was about right, considering my mood was in a similar state. Well, other than the cold part. Okay, maybe not the dark part, either. But, definitely the rainy/dreary part. I fought back tears as I pulled the car away from the departures level — In my rearview mirror, I could just barely make out Michael walking towards the Air Canada ticket counter to start his journey to California to see his brother for Christmas.
Now, it’ll be 25 days until I see him again.

You’ll be fine, I’ve always seen separations like this as a good way to build up stories and experiences; that you’ll have a good cuddle when you get back and share with one another.
Awwww….
It will suck to be apart, but just think about how AWESOME it will be when you get back and do that whole seeing eachother again thing!
Have a great trip if I don’t get a chance to drop another message before you’re gone, and looking forward to all those updates from your trip!
awe
… yeah, it does suck you guys are apart for so long but you get to find out a little more about someone when you are apart too…
Damn, Tanya, that’s a long time to be apart. For some reason I was just assuming he’d make an appearance over in Europe. Well, have a great trip anyhow.
aw, I’m sure it’ll all be fine!
Merry X-mas, happy traveling and a Prosperous New Year to you!
I’m sure Michael found it hard leaving you this morning too. 25 days will be over before you know it. You’ll have a wonderful time on your trip and can take comfort in knowing what a great guy you’ve got waiting for you when you get back. Have a very Merry Xmas and a fabulous trip. I’ll look forward to reading about your adventures while your traveling though Europe.
