this never gets easier

Just put Patty on her train to Cardiff, and I'm on mine to Heathrow.

Despite a tube strike and more traffic than I can possibly describe, we had a not horrible or horribly expensive cab ride to Paddington. So far so good.

She'll be home in three weeks-ish (stuff! we'll know! soon!) and I'll have good Internet again and we can video chat and all that, but it's still always hard when we have to part.

We make it look good though.

long distance is tough

(we did it when we were young and lived in different countries before we got married - okay, 18 years ago now.. we had to make do with 20 minute telephone call once a week - no video calls then)
*hugs*

Luckily we're only long-distance part time, but things are particularly travel intensive right now. Which reminds me, I should go see if my gate's been posted!

we've not been long distance for 18 years (though I refuse to be old enough to have been married 18 years but that's another story altogether)

Have a safe journey

Heavens, I had to do a double take! Your expression there reminds me SO MUCH of the librarian at my old school in Germany!

(Frau Wilke was pretty awesome. She knew everything!)

Doing the LD thing myself right now (on a much more long term basis--at least into the next two years)--reading your posts recently has really made me want Dec. 19 (when I'll next see my SO) to come a lot faster since you and Patty make it look so much easier than it obviously is.

Also, you guys are way too adorable for words.
