Gotta Go

He did say "No" after all. But it wasn't just "No", and it wasn't quite "NO" or "NO!", it was more like "NO FUCKING WAY!" There's adversity for ya. After much yelling and arguing and crying (I was the sole participant here) and convincing and talking really quietly and slowly, we're off. For a while I wasn't so convinced, but the boy proved to be capable of even more skill than I thought possible and managed to appease my father and get him to agree. I must say I'm quite impressed. And so, with a heavy heart (ha ha) I leave my family behind.

Eight days + the boyfriend - parents = nothing short of bliss
