Though I'm Far Away



Poker Guy is now in Ohio.  He called me during his drive and we talked for almost an hour.  I almost never spend that long on the phone.  He's coming back to Houston in April for the MS150, a bike ride from Houston to Austin which benefits the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. 

I said, "But I'm not going to see you in April."

"What?  Why not?"  He sounded a little hurt.

"Because you'll be busy riding your bike 150 miles."

"I'm spending a week in Houston."

The ride is only for the weekend.  I guess I'm seeing him again in April...

April is a wonderful month to look forward to then!

That last sentence confused me. Could be that your happy, could be that your not.

I'm guessing it's a good thing, Woohoo!

Anticipation is more fun than anything!

@John: Or another opportunity to be disappointed. I haven't had good luck with long distance romances.

@Buckeroomama: I'm keeping busy so I don't have to think about it.

@Sprite's Keeper: I'm hoping.

@Heather: I'm just afraid to get to excited. We're separated by 1000 miles.

@buffalodick: Sometimes.

@gayle: It will be wonderful, but I'll believe it when it happens.

Looks like someone else is gonna benefit in April besides the MS society from Poker Guy's willingness to travel 1000 miles to ride 150...:)

@Rebecca S.: I'm not convinced it's me...he's riding with that other woman. I know they've been planning it for a long time but it's pissing me off.
