Ha, we had a laugh taking that picture. That is one big shirt!! I could have fitted myself and probably an extra kid in it too. Spread out that shirt covers my double bed!!

I just had to steal it and bring it back to the UK with me to take that picture.

We had such a laugh didnt we with me trying on your big clothes on my visit to you. That shirt came down well over my knees and the sleeves came over my hands and the neck hole was so large that it almost dropped over my shoulders and down to the floor!

But seriously, well done.

I'm serious. I meet folks online but I only let it go so far. I always have this feeling of disconnect. Funny, I have that same feeling in day to day life...

WTF? How did you two become such good friends and... can you loan some-o-that to me?

Thanks!

I don't know! I think we are as surprised as anyone really. Things just kind of evolved. Started out private messages here, my post count had been reached and I wanted to comment about one of 2crowdeds posts. A few back and forth messages occured which then became daily update emails on what we were facing in our day to day lives. Then msn became a daily event. That was hard to start with, we both felt uneasy but we just had so much to talk about. We then started to tackle my phone phobia with msn calls...before we knew it..OMG how long have we been talking on the phone..time flies! Think record was 6hrs or so. I don't remember what we talked about but I laugh a lot these days.

Meeting up just seemed like the next progression and also I saw it as a challenge. There was also needing a bit of 'me' time away from these 4 walls and my family grind. Where better to go than my best friends house?

We often have the 'how did this happen' conversation and how out of character it is for both of us.

Next step is 2crowded coming here in September. Its not going to be easy for either of us but something we are both determined to do. Its a big push in to the world of feeling uncomfortable, airport pick ups and days out, thats just my side! but what we both get out of it is more than worth it, real good comfortable company and a sense of achievement.

Thanks 2C..you mean the world to me. :)

No.... thank you Amy....I will be getting on that plane bound for the U.K in September....only ever been on an airplane one other time when I was 5 years old...& that was only an hour flight, cant remember much about it..just a split second or two memory of looking out the window. I have never been anywhere other than this right hand half of America...so I'm looking forward to coming...but of course scared to death of it as well. lol .. But I'm going to do it...I want to....I know I will enjoy it once I get the airport & flight out of the way.
