Aw thanks! His name is Teddy, I bought him for Anthony when he was a puppy. Skittle is my dog. Anthony bought him for me when he was 5 weeks old and I bottle fed him for the first couple weeks and then he needed Nutrical after that because he was so small.

Our weather on the other hand is just heating up. In the mid 80's this week.
That's funny! I like that motto. It isn't normally like that here, but it sure was today.

It will be Friday before you know it. Glock sounds good maybe keep the radio on too.
Sounds like a good deal to me! I'm gonna try to go to sleep now but I need someone to talk to nightly when I'm up late so I'll PM you my number as soon as I finish typing this.

How long did that last until you moved to be with him? How old are you? You looked young in your Instagram photos, but you probably hear that a lot in real life.

Yes, when we started dating he lived in Massachusetts for work, his family was in North Carolina, and he had a work apartment in Connecticut. So when he was in NC, he would drive for 4 hours each way even if we could only see each other for an hour. During the time that we lived apart, we each sent over 20,000 messages per month. We each bought a second phone (I bought a BlackBerry 8703e and he bought a Motorola Q) so that we wouldn't have to stop talking when our batteries died. We both fell hard and fast. We literally talked from morning to night and we were totally in sync. We even took showers at the same time so that we could minimize the time that we spent not talking. We weren't just in love, we were absolutely crazy in love and we both knew from day one that it was forever. And 7 and a half years later, we are still going strong. I can't remember exactly how long it was before we moved in together but it was probably about 3-4 weeks. I tasked him with finding us an apartment immediately and it didn't take long at all. So after that I just told my mom that even though I was only 17 I knew that this is what I needed to do and she understood and let me go. Her only requirement was that we got a two bedroom apartment so that she could visit whenever she wanted because I'm very much her baby, and so is he. He doesn't really have a mom so she's completely adopted him as well.
I'm 24 now and he just turned 30. And yes, people constantly tell me that I look like a teenager. I hate it now, even though I know it's true, but I'm hoping that I'll appreciate it when I'm older and don't look my age.
It is. I love it and it's home for me. I moved to Boston at 17 to be with Anthony, which lasted about a year, and then we moved to Vermont for another year, but it was too hard for me to be away from my family and friends so he quit his job (one that paid very well, unfortunately) and moved down here so we could still be together. That's actually why he's away right now, visiting his family in North Carolina.That's a nice area.
