It's sad...

Get your cameras ready because this is one of the few occasions you'll see me acting in an ernest and non-inflamatory fashion.

Bob, I have to say I envy you to a degree. Having something in your life that is as precious and important as what you have with Silver (I'm not entirely comfortable with using actual names) is a one-in-a-million occurence. I've been single for over two years now, and once you get yourself into a rut like the one I'm trapped in, you find it's harder and harder to pull yourself out with each passing month. Much less pull yourself out and find someone you honestly love and connect with. For the love of God, whatever you do, don't give up on it. Either of you. Long-distance relationships hurt, but the pain is well-worth the amplified benefit of the time you actually get to spend with each other. But, I don't really have to tell you any of this, because you already know and understand exactly what I'm talking about. Just felt like pitching in my two cents.

I'm gonna go take a shower now. All that sentimental crap has made me feel a little sticky.
