Going, Going, Gone.

After a long day, Jase is currently flying through the air on his way to London.

I'm impressed I didn't bawl at the airport. I'm impressed I didn't bawl all the way home. I'm impressed I kept it together at all. I do have a feeling though, that it'll hit me some time later this evening. But that's okay. I'm home alone, so I can mope just a little without anyone noticing and worrying.

As for some great news, he's been offered a job! He got the contract before he left home, which makes things much less stressful on his part. I'm so excited for him. I wish I was going too. (It felt so strange standing at the luggage check-in queue and not actually having any luggage of my own.)

Everything will be awesome. I have "The List", we have Skype, we'll be fine.

But crap, do I miss him already.

Want to see my bling?

  3. I am amazed you didn't bawl at the airport. I couldn't have held it together if it were me! At least you can look at your gorgeous ring, even if you can't see Jase every day.

  4. Sometimes it seems like once the dreaded day arrives things actually get easier. You can look forward to the good things coming up, rather than dreading, dreading, dreading the day that's inevitably coming. At least that's what I've found. Hope it's true for you! And the ring is gorgeous!!

  7. Great ring girl! (What does it mean exactly? Smack me - I'm being nosy!!!) Big hugs for you. December 25th will be here before you know it. I know it's scary, but you have SO much to look forward to - I'm envious. I've never even been across the pond. P.S. you really look like you've lost major weight!

  10. Oh man! Six months! I feel your pain! Scotty and I were separated for two years, and he couldn't call me. Our only communication was through written letters. It was so hard! But we've been back together for five years now and hopefully won't be separated again. Hopefully your six months will fly by!

    Your ring is very pretty!

  15. That ring is hot *said like paris*
    no really, I like it. I was expecting you to bawl at the airport. And all the way home. And possibly for most of the night. As long as it doesn't hit tomorrow some time during HP, I think we'll be right, because if you cry... I probably will too. And then we'd just be those weird girls in gold class who cried during Harry Potter.

  19. That ring is gorgeous!
    I have to say that I have been on vacation for a little bit and while I was scrolling down to see where I left off, I saw the ring and thought that it was something else.


    :)
    Glad to be back!
