Knowing the wonderful lady in question, and wanting to get to know you much better as well I have to say I do understand how hard it can be. I am much closer than you and wish there was a teleportation device we could all use to move around so she and you can get more time, she and I can get some time, etc. I'm glad you 2 got the skype time. Skype is a great thing especially when far apart. Tif and I have a very close set of friends in which he is in Iraq, Wife is in NJ and girlfriend is in MD. He is there until October so when any of us get a little skype time with him its bitter sweet.
