My favorite show is back for the final season. Not only is it my favorite show because it is so awesome, it is my favorite show because it brings my friends together. Friends, Tacos and Lost, it will not get better than that.

I am currently in a long distance relationship from Chicago to Kansas City that has lasted close to seven months.

I guess I don’t talk about it very often on here because, well, I’d like for it to last and I just want to keep it private. As much as I enjoy this relationship and as much as I’ve learned and grown in the past seven months, it is one of the hardest things I have ever done. I think it is completely worth it but it sucks a lot and there are a lot of days when he wants to drop out of school and move here or I want to quit my job and move there. The good news is there aren’t a lot of days that we want to give up on it.

The only reason that I mention it is because of the conversation I had yesterday:

Person: What’d you do for Halloween?
Self: [relay occurrences of the evening]
Person: Did you talk to any cute boys?
Self: Why would I talk to cute boys? I’m dating someone.
Person: Well….I guess? I mean, how long are you REEEEALLY expecting that to last?

Normally, I would brush this off but SERIOUSLY this “Person” is the sixth with whom I’ve had this conversation (or similar). I know that I’m an overly sensitive person but I am starting to get really frustrated. Thankfully, most of my friends and family have been extremely supportive and I really appreciate it. I just want everyone to know that we’re both in this for the long haul and being in an LDR (as a few of my friends know) is difficult enough without a snide remark like the one above.

Thank you for your support, whether loud or quiet.

I feel a little obnoxious now, so I’m going to hide. That’s all I will (hopefully) say on the matter. Thanks for tolerating my mini-rant.
