Been a Long time since I Rock 'n' Rolled....
So its been a while, I was basically waiting for the "millions" of exciting things I do to pile up to make a good post. Christmas happened. My parents came down and we had christmas in Florida. That wasn't the exciting part. After we closed Trial, I drove directly to Marley, stopping only for gas. I spent the best 9 days of the last 5 years of my life. I rang in the new year with the love of my life and it feels like my life is actually going somewhere. Meeting Marley has become the greatest thing to ever happen to me. She believes in me so I believe in me, She loves me, and suddenly I don't think i"m such a bad guy. Long distance is horrible and I don't recommend it to anyone unless it's worth it. And not just the happy, love-sick puppy worth it. Blood, sweat, and tears worth it. I love her. Also, my career doesn't look so bad either. Summer positions are looking good and Denise, my boss, wants to hire me full time next year as a Wardrobe Staff Personnel. Hourly wages and Health Insurance, Huzzah! Well, thats pretty much it. My life is going well. I have a woman who loves me and a job that doesn't suck.

Update! Update! Excellent! Ow! Ow! Ow!
A little Wayne's World for those of you who don't get the reference. Still in Orlando, which has gotten better but its still not anywhere I want to be. Missing Marley has its ups and downs, going to visit her 2 weeks ago made last week kinda hell but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything in the world. Being with her makes my life have a meaning and a purpose beyond myself. Looking at a bunch of theatres around the country lately, gearing up for January when I have to go on the mad hunt for jobs. Almost could have made a Duran Duran reference there, oh well. I wish there was something more exciting going on right now, but alas, my life is really not that awesome..... yet. So sit back, relax, and keep reading and eventually, someday, hopefully, something exciting will happen.

So... There's This Girl...
I haven't really come out and talked about this yet. So as I've mentioned a few times in this blog, Marley is a huge part of my life. She's my girlfriend. The love of my life. My Everything. I mentioned her being my best friend before, she still is. Everyday I find that I love her more and more and that me missing her and her missing me only means that there's something there worth fighting for, and thats just what I"ll do. 12 hours and 700+ miles will not break me. I've never felt this connected to someone before and when I look into her eyes... I melt.
I went into this summer pretty rough and pretty down. I didn't expect to find friends let alone a woman I've been waiting my entire life for. And I didn't do anything of the usual Phill standards of excellence, or rather idiocy. I was just myself, and it was enough. I never envisioned myself as someone who would even want to plan a future with someone anymore... but with her it comes easy. I look at her and I know, I want that future. I want her. I am so thankful for her. She makes me laugh. I don't ever remembering actually laughing as much as I do with her. I genuinely smile and enjoy myself. So thank you, God; thank you, New Harmony, Inidiana; Thank you SETC. Thank you for the greatest thing I have ever had in my life.
