Most nights, I can barely sleep. So I end up waiting for Jarrett to wake up so we can skype until I get sleepy. He usually comes online at around 4:30 am, meaning it would be 8:30 a.m. where he lives. Sometimes, he does the same for me, even though I remind him over and over that his tedious job requires that he gets a full night of sleep. At some point last night, this happened. No kinds of perversion occured. Just a lot of admiring, and laughing, and wishing I was anywhere but here with him.
Upon checking my email this morning, I received this from him:
Hey, I told you I was going to send you foolish emails. I just miss you a lot. I had a great morning spending it with you.
I don't know what he did, but I've fallen pretty hard, without even noticing it. I like him a lot. More than I can express into words, at least. He's saving up to visit me, and won't let me help him out, because I'm still a student. He's even looking for a roomate so he can split the cost of the mortgage so that he can come down here sooner. I feel very lucky. I'm taking him to Disneyland when that time comes around.
mkp.
