distance

Today is an anniversary of sorts for me and my partner. It is exactly three years since we moved apart, and our relationship became long distance. Our situation often makes me sympathise with those who suffer from bipolar disorder - I imagine it to be a similar experience, with some days of intense joy here and there, separated by weeks or even months of darkness inbetween. I have heard it said that some people with bipolar disorder prefer to be that way - that the ecstasy of the good times make up for the depression. Me, I want to be cured! I'm moving back to the UK in August, and can't wait.
