And we continue….

So, the countdown is on, we are IMing non stop, even when Kylie goes out or is on a set she has her phone to IM with her & we are talking pretty much all the time…

We also have a game we play, when I am asleep we time how long it will it take her to wake me up…. which was very rarely more than 2 minutes (and I sleep like the dead!!!)

So, apart from the impressive collection of photos & audio recordings we are both collecting we are also using snail mail to send each other things, I sent her things like T-shirts that smell like me, a sonic screwdriver (honestly!!)  & teabags, she sent me videos of her, printed copies of her photography & other personal things…. all while the countdown continues!

2 weeks before we met she went to Dallas & spent all night (give or take an hour or so) in her hotel room talking to me, we discussed Skype & she errr videoed herself err…doing stuff & err …talking to me about err… what we were gonna do (basically greatest video ever, I still watch it!!)

So just before she set off for London we both set up Skype & then discussed what it woud be like to actually see each other, Kylie had an idea whereby we typed the story of what we thought into a word document and then copied & pasted at the same time to see what they were like, I thought it was a great idea, so we did…..

So during the same conversation we did it, it took maybe 10-20 mins, we copied & then on the count of 3 we hit paste together, IT WAS INCREDIBLE, almost word for word the same description, even down to the room!  The connection we felt was enormous, we laughed, we cried, we were so in love… and we were only 1 week away from each other….

Gonna stop right there, in my next blog I am gonna talk about London & Skype…. You will love that bit, it fucking super dooper awesome.

Stay tuned

You see this one is the tough one….

So far we are upto Vegas, amongst audio clips & photos, I have sent her loads of songs that I like …but two in particular REALLY remind me of her (bearing in mind we haven’t met!) Arctic Monkeys – SOS (I still call her my SOS girl) & Athlete – Wires. We had a conversation before Vegas & she told me those were her favourite out of all the songs… the fact she knew without me saying still makes me smile, when we used to ”connect” via IM we would sit & just listen to them, only saying the odd word or phrase as we did (the amount of times we would hit enter & our words matched was unbeievable!!)

Anyway I have to move on from this area because there is so much more to talk about, this happened daily, for hours, such intense emotion, such an amazing connection…. but I am moving on, you get it right?

So, after Vegas, Kylie managed to organise a trip to London to see me… FOR 3 WHOLE WEEKS!!!) & everyday I would get more info, she emailed me the ticket, the flight details & then we would start the countdown to when we meet, every day…NO, 100 times a day, she would ask & I always knew down to the second how long it would be until I was with her, till we were together, it was AMAZING…. it made both of us so happy to know we would finally get to see each other (again?), to touch, to see if what we had was real (We already knew but we had both began to discuss it with close friends (hello Mick & Amber!) so I suppose it was kinda for their benefit really because I suppose a part of them thought we might be insane!!)

So the connection is growing, our hearts are racing & we are getting closer, falling deeper in love, having discussions about stuff we have done & on a daily basis, stuff we have experienced (all very smililar to say we have such different backgrounds) & everyday more & more future memories, I mean loads, tons, so so so many…. up until then probably the happiest stage of my life.

SO I suppose I better tell you about when we both wrote a seperate story about how we meet & then compared the story at the same time… I also better mention when we started with Skype….. Skype was fucking amazing!

However, I am gonna tell you that in part 5, so digest this bit & I will be back soon 😉

OOh & before I go, thanks for reading by the way!
