The next four weeks are going to be very odd. The croc is going backpacking in Thailand for the whole month of July starting from this weekend :-( Well he's flying to Algeria first to do a Hed Kandi gig leaving tomorrow then he flies back to London and then out the next day for Thailand! He's a proper little jet setter now which makes me wonder where my inner backpacker has got to recently. I always have itchy feet (not in the athletes foot type of way) but as in I always want to travel and explore new places. I guess the fact that I rent a flat, own a car, training to become a journalist and holding down a full time job have something to do with it. But why don't we throw caution to the wind sometimes and spend out hard earned cash on something more exciting that fabric softener and dog food. We all get set in our ways sometimes and stuck in a little rut wishing the weeks away to count down to that package holiday in Magaluf that you've been saving for all year. Go to the places you've always wanted to go to, there are ways and means. Take me. I've ALWAYS wanted to go to New York. It's on my 'places to visit' list and I've always said, like a lot of people, 'oooh I'd love to go there one day'. Well people, that day has finally come. Instead of wishing I was somewhere, I'm actually going to go. Me and the Croc are going hopefully in September for a week and we going to stay in hostels, true backpacker style. I'm very excited.
But in the meantime, Dan is leaving. He flies to Algeria tonight then straight to Thailand. That's 32 days without kisses (and cuddles!) It's going to be very tough and there are going to be good days and bad days which will probably be documented on the blog. I think it will take me a week or so for it to sink in properly so that leaves three weeks. But I have a plan! A plan to look amazing for when he comes back- a get fit and healthy plan. The time I would be spending with Dan I'm going to go for a power walk or a swim. 32 days of that and I should be as fit as a butchers dog. As well as this, I've also made sure my weekend's are so jam packed so I don't have the opportunity to miss him! I've got hair cuts, sleepover's, cinema trips, dinners out, lunches out and a potential weekend in Newquay so I think I will be a pretty busy girl.
We are used to spending time apart. When we first met, we spent 5 months apart when he was still in Australia and I was in England. We still spoke to each other every day but it got really hard towards the end. That was 2 years ago so we've come a long way since then but we will be fine. He'll be back in the blink of an eye!
