Everything is small in Texas

Well this post has been a long time coming and way past overdue. Lots of things I have to put out there for my rabid audience. First things first, one that I am sure Mom wants me to write about, I finally made it down to Texas to see the girl I have been raving about in past posts, Solita. I was able to squeeze a 4 day pass out of my unit for Presidents Day weekend. I flew out on Friday the 13th. Not exactly the best day in history to start a relationship but I will never forget it. I was waiting to get my bag from baggage claim and she snuck up on me. In all fairness, its not that hard for her to sneak around, being every bit of 4’11” she said she was. I probably was looking over her head when I was scanning the room but anyways she surprised me a little. I turned and there she was. As far as first dates, or first sight (we had been talking online and webcamming so I knew what she looked like) this one will go down in my record book. Once I got over the initial shock of the height, I got to take in all her beauty and I was at a loss for words. Just being able to finally see and hold her after talking and connecting for 4 months was awesome. It was as though I knew everything about her before I got to see her for the first time in the airport, but yet I had so much to learn. I may of thought I knew her but I really had only just begun to understand her. From there, the weekend was a blur of meeting family, dinners and shopping. I did, after all, have Christmas, Valentines Day and her birthday to make up for. Lucky for me (or her, however you choose to look at it) I got my tax returns back on that Friday. I think I did a good job restraining myself (and her) and came home with plenty of money. I am eagerally waiting the next time I get to see her. I see this forming into a great relationship. Now, if I could only get a way to see her without all the hassle of getting a pass, plane tickets and rides everywhere it would make it a ton easier. Then again, nothing in my life has been too easy especially when I have been in control. Relationships were never ment to be easy. Everything worth something is worth working and fighting for.
