Thanks

I wanted to thank everyone who left comments on our "Our Story" posts.  I loved reading them.  I'm happy to answer (almost?) any questions, if there's something I missed that you're still wondering about.  Also, if you're inspired to write YOUR story, let me know... I love a good love story.  :)

    It was so fun reading your story. I'm a sucker for a love story, too. One of these days, maybe I'll write my story with Catch. I had a blog back then and I think I cataloged every last excited breath, but that backup has been long since tucked away on a mysterious backup somewhere.

    I am totally writing OUR story and will let you know when I post it. The one question I wondered while reading was, are you and your mother on good terms now and has she since accepted Jen?

      My mom and I are on good terms now.

      When I was growing up we were very close, and probably needless to say, that is just not the case anymore. I don't know if she's changed since I was a teen, but I notice a lot more things about her that rub me the wrong way now. But she's still my mom and (to me) that counts for something.

      I think both Jen and I will always feel somewhat guarded around her. (She said some really terrible things about Jen when all this was going on.) It's too bad really, because Jen's parents have always been wholy supportive and I regret that it can't be the same on both sides, though we recognize how lucky we are to have it at all.

    i loved reading that! i'm impressed you guys did long distance so long and without knowing exactly when it would end. that's so hard and such a success!

    i am *almost* inspired to write up ours, except that it's a little sordid and not suuuuuper flattering. i always tell people: don't do what we did — our results were anomalous!

      Now you've got me curious!
      I'm sure there are redeeming elements to your story.

      ha! certainly, certainly. and we have a shortened, cleaned up version down pat for when we're asked!

      That's one that I rather not share in blogland, though I'm sure with a little poking around you could probably figure it out pretty easily.

      If you send me an email through the "contact us" link I'll write you back and tell you. :)
