Jencon etc

there are many things i can say about jenny. So so many things. i can't list them because frankly the last week has been... mind blowing.

After 8 months, we have finally met. It was an awkward meet, where she was only a few minutes late to the luggage pick up. Which wasn't too much of a problem because frankly the Detroit Airport is so fucking long from the gate I almost died getting there. I really wish I caught the tram they have there.

I stood at the gate pick up waiting for her and she had just found a park and was on her way, walking through the bridge and down the stairs to find me. I got a little worried after about 10 minutes when i hadn't found her, but just as I called her she was walking through the doors.

We looked at each other and there was the shyness we kept for all 2 hours. We laughed and joked as we got lost in the Car Park Building, finding the strangeness of having to go up levels to get out onto ground level.

We talked about stuff all the way back to her place, the whole two hours. She joked as we passed Jackson about feeling at home, since Jackson is apparently a town full of correctional centres. Oh she is sooo Funny. Making funny jokes about how Australians are all Convicts? She should go to Second City or something.

But we got to her place, she took me on a tour, and I met Taz. Taz loves me, the little shit. He cuddles up, puts his head on my lap, he brings his little torn up toy to me so I can throw it across the room and he could go chasing it to bring it back and fight for me to take it off him. He also sniffs my hair and rolls around on my head, because he's a weird little fucker. I've been told that my head smells like its been washed with a Bug Bomb, so Taz has a weird ass sense of taste.

I met Penny as well, and sadly she didn't take to me very well at first because Taz got away and chased her all around the house. Consequentially Jenny and I got copped with a back case of the Fuck offs. But she has eventually come around and started meowing at me for Pettins and rubbing against my leg.

On tuesday, we went out to see Jennys parents at Shakespeares, a regular drinking hole for her family, and we all enjoyed ourselves. They made me feel really comfortable with them. The Thursday afterwards, Jenny and I went to Lansing to see her Uncle Gregg and his partner Matthew. Gregg was fun, and Matthew was entertaining as he just kept throwing curious questions my way about anything and everything. Like what things are like at home and what cultural differences there are.

The Saturday involved me and jenny going to Jennys parents place to introduce me to the rest of the family and her friends. It was a good day and there was giggles to be had everywhere. They even made me some beans! But all the family enjoyed me, had a good laugh and got a few shocks out of some of the lines I pulled. I even swore in front of Jennys Grandmother!

Yeah, I'm probably going to hell.

We went and saw Scott Pilgrim vs the World that night as well with Scott and Amanda (Jennys Brother and his girlfriend). I was a little entranced by the movie, while Jenny spent the night cuddling up to me, and i'd turn over to make out with her for a few minutes.

Otherwise we have been lazing about doing whatever. It has been really fun, and while she thinks that she's boring the living crap out of me, I really not. I feel like I've been gifted with relaxation, kisses and cuddles. We've spent the day laying in bed and snoozing; i've made her toasted cheese sandwiches for brunch; she's made me cinnamon rolls for breakfast. It's been wonderful and I really don't want to leave.

Which is what everyone keeps saying to me! "You can't stay there! You have to come back!" I got an email today saying "Matt, you have to come back. I'm going crazy." And Mum keeps emailing me saying "Where's my daily email" and I'm like "it's in the post..."

*Sigh* I dread the flight going home. And not because of the 18 hours to get home.a
