  Hmm...archives aren't working again. Why are they so damn fickle? *thbbth* [edited to say: Archives are back...my point exactly!
] I received an e-mail from may father this morning, after he had looked at the changes to my site. There's more, but the important part is as follows: As for journal entries, I'm glad to see you can express some of your inner self (some people can't begin to describe feelings).
I hope you and Abby find ways to communicate more over time so you can assume less, know more and hopefully find out if you're headed in the same direction after college. (will you both want the same city and will you have enough in common for your relationship to survive when your out in the working world at different jobs all day and no longer have daily college life experiences in common?
All relationships hit auto pilot from time to time and your problems as a couple of love and wants and needs and parents and attention are not much different than most heterosexual couples your age. The difference is that you also have to sometimes be stronger as a lesbian couple to deal with outside stresses from a society that's not always supportive. The phrase "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is not always true and long distance relationships have more stress and more communication problems. Overcommunication and lots of tlc is an ideal rule of thumb while you are apart. Assume makes an ass out of you and me.
The good news is that questions you are asking will answer themselves over time, the bad news is that it may longer than you want. Anyway, I hope relationships and jobs and life all works out like your hopes and dreams want it to! He is way cute. I think I'll keep him too. :-) Thanks, Dad!
