Half-Nekkid Thursday : and in the end….

At the very end of our time together, during our adventure to NYC and back, Roxy and I were sitting in a food court at SFO.  I need to write that chapter of the story because it was strange and surreal and I was completely wacked out of my head from exhaustion and lack of proper calorie intake.  Luckily, I wasn’t alone, or I might still be wandering aimlessly around that airport, wondering how to get home, or at least, how to get a nap.

After I had my boarding pass for the flight home to Seattle, and had gotten within strolling distance of security, Roxy guided me to the food court and made sure I was properly hydrated and nourished.   These are a couple of the pictures she took while we stretched out the time we had left.

We experienced most of the known emotions in those last minutes.  We were giddy, exhausted, high on each other, sad but trying to avoid being too sad, goofy from too little sleep and full from so many experiences.  We were also really happy and grateful to have the time we did have together.  We never take it for granted and always feel lucky even though parting is so damned hard.

 

Did I mention how tired we were?

.

and in the End,

the love you take,

is equal to the Love,

you make

.

Happy New Year and Happy HNT everyone :-) .  May your 2010 be filled with joy, love, sex and satisfaction.

I have such mixed feelings from that parting – we were so tired, but laughing and giddy to have spent such wonderful time together. We were watching with horror as that bruise on your arm spread further, screaming to the world that your girlfriend loses all control when her teeth touch your skin. We were ready to be home, but not to be apart. But, above it all, we were two people deeply and comfortably in love, and the pictures show how well we fit together.

Re: In the end… That’s one of my favorite lines and so very fitting. I’ll be singing it the rest of the day.

You two look very sweet all tired. :)

Oh, how I can so relate to the bittersweetness of the parting. That moment, when you last see each other before one of you turns a corner and the other watches you walk/drive away is gut-wrenching indeed. Going weeks/months without being physically together is so damn hard. And yet, every day spent apart is one day closer to the next time you are together. I just love you guys. *sniff, sniff*

Oh how I can relate so well to this. My boyfriend and I lived apart for so much of our relationship that we had many times like this with each other. Bittersweet and beautiful post. Happy HNT.
