I’m not sure if I ever mentioned this but Matt and I did long distance for about three years. I was in Phoenix being hot (as in sweaty) and he was in L.A. being normal. It was hard, of course, but we made it through thanks to Southwest’s Rapid Rewards, having our own full lives (very important!), and this little device called iSight.
The whole webcam thing pretty much carried our relationship. We would turn it on and just sorta hang out. Together. But apart. We’d talk about our days and stuff but when we got bored of that, we’d watch TV or show each other what we bought at the mall (OK, that was probably just me) or just sit there and make funny faces. It was … funny. And it became our normal.
So because I live in 2003 and have recently become obsessed with Picasa’s collage-making tool, and because I asked Matt, hey, can I post these embarrassing photos, and he said he no longer cares what I do on the internet, and because, well, just because, here are some webcam shots of us.
So cute!
Awww cute!:)
I think its great that you guys used this to help bridge the long distance gap. I’ve also been wondering where you made the collage. You two are so cute!
Picasa has a collage making tool? Heh…
Wow, three years is a long time.
I don’t care because I’m dead inside. Actually this seems to be the only way to make myself famous, riding your coat tails.
You know, last year I did a research paper on the use of technology in long distance relationships. What a great example you would’ve been for my paper!
Nonetheless, you two are ridiculously cute!
so cute I threw up a little.
tyson and I are are also currently reliant on the wonders of the external isight on the imac, the built in isight on the macbook, and a strong broadband connection. interestingly, I never really realized how LOUD it is living in LA until I realized it was impossible to hear him over the background noise. those darn garbage trucks.
This is totally cute. You guys are such a Sweet and Cuddly couple, If I may say :)
I’m not sure whether to laugh at the photos or gush about how cute you guys were or be amazed that you made it work for multiple years apart. But, one thing is for sure … I’m glad you shared.
Aaaa! you guys are too freakin cute!
3 years is a LONG time! that is amazing!
Obvi you are meant to be together…excuse me as I squeal over your cuteness LOL!
Okay you guys are just way too cute!!!!! Awwwww!
aw these are too darn cute. love it.
grin.
(is a one-word comment acceptable?)
Awww, you guys are like in bed at the same time, so cute!!
awww you guys are the cutest :)
So freakin adorable, really.
I think it’s great how you guys did long distance and came out strong and now look at you two!! You are the couple everyone will look to when people say ‘long distance doesn’t work’ and then they’ll say, no, no, it does, look at Michelle and Matt =D
So cute!
Okay, so, first of all: mad props for being able to do the long-distance thing! When I moved out here, I tried to maintain one with my “first love” but it just wasn’t meant to be, I guess.
Also, that photo on the left where both of you are laying in your own beds with huge smiles on your faces? Totally adorable and made my heart melt out of my body. The end.
Kaaahhh-youuuuuuuuuuute
omgosh this is so cuttte!!!
