Just got back from another long weekend with my girlfriend. Hard to believe it was out 11th visit together. Damn time flies huh! Had an amazing weekend.

Left Friday morning and got to her place around 1:30pm. Had an awesome drive with no delays at the border or any stupid traffic. I cruised and made it there in record time. I love driving to her place; no major cities to go through and it's pretty much straight down from my place.

We spent Friday afternoon catching up with her family and doing some cooking! And in the evening we went to a tattoo shop to get me some ink. Then we chilled a bit in bed, watched some show...and well, stuff! lol

Saturday, we did our usual morning routine, which kinda makes it feel like home. I feel part of the family. Later we to the local Farmer's Market/Flee Market and then did a bit of shopping at Kohls. We don't have that in Canada. I bought myself a nice pair of shoes...like I need more! But hey they aren't Converses for a change! lol But sneakers. And we had lunch at Subway together! Later we took her brothers to 7Eleven for our usual late night slurpee run! They love it!

Sunday, we, with brothers, hit the road early to head to the PA Renaissance Faire!! It was Time Travellers weekend and her bros and I are Doctor Who fans, so we had to go! It was loads of fun and I love spending time with them and getting to know them. It was a gorgeous day! Had pizza at home that night and then played some late night Monopoly with them. They are awesome boys!

Sunday night we stayed up very late talking and cuddling A LOT. Wanting to spend as much time together as possible. She fell asleep in my arms and we stayed like that most of the night. We usually get up early the morning of the day I leave but we didn't wake up until around 10am! I guess we were both tired and comfortable. It made me sad though cause that meant less time with her, awake. I tried to be strong but my sadness got the better of me and I broke down a couple times. Leaving her is so fucking hard. I feel so at home and at peace with her. I don't care about any of the bad stuff going on or job stress...you know, all that life stuff! lol But I was tough and left for home around 12:30pm.

The drive again was nice. I was doing really good for 99% of it until I thought about how I missed her hand on my leg in the car. But that lasted around 3 mins and then I was ok again. I'm stronger than I think I guess.

The trip was amazing but I really wish it was longer. I have one little worry that I may bring up to her but I'm not sure if it's my self-esteem or her's that is triggering this, so we'll see. It's nothing major but it's just on my mind a bit. I will think on it.

A lot of great things are happening in the next few months. She just found out this morning that she got a job in the Bakery Dept of Grocery store and she has about a year of school to go before she's done! And I'm dealing with my personal issues as well and going to keep going to therapy! I think we are finally heading in a good direction. Our vibe is completely different and starting to feel like it was before. Feels good!

We may have a potential visit in October but we'll have to see how things are with school and work for her. But at least is something to think about.

More to follow I'm sure!
