So today, Ben started his second block of training. He's in Landon, WY for NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School). I knew that I probably wouldn't be able to talk to him very much, but when he text me this morning saying they were packing to go camping for 23 days, that caught me off guard just a little, so I had to say "well I guess I'll talk to you in 23 days." I wasn't really expecting to have to say that today. Last night, he told me they had classes and camping trips and other stuff to do, but he thought he would at least be able to talk to me every now and then, but his phone will die in a few days and I won't be able to hear from him for the next month :( Goodbyes never get easier. I saw someone post today that "if goodbyes get easy, end it. It's pretty amazing to love someone that much that you miss them the minute they've left. There are people who never experience that much love."
On another note, tonight was my first night as a solo server. I think it went well, however, I only walked out at the end of the night with $24. I had three tables all night, so it was SLLLOOOOWWWWWW as crap! But at least I have one night under my belt and my manager even told me that he thought I did a good job :D I guess I should say, I am working part time at J. Alexander's out by the Dayton Mall.
So today starts yet another countdown:
23 days until communication is brought back to us
51 days until we're together again
57 days until classes start
I only throw the school countdown because I'm bored. I'm ready to start classes again. I'm ready to see my friends every day. I'm ready to get the year started!
I can do this!
