As many people know, the distance between ktspktsp and I is very draining to me at times (esp. the day or two after we've just seen each other). We will also spend the whole summer apart, with very little communication of any kind since I'll be in Africa, and this separation will continue for at least a year or more. Is there an end in sight for you?
Have you tried chatting on MSN? Webcams & microphones are relatively inexpensive ways to "see" each other (and hell, even have wonderful cybersex--and yes, it's funny sometimes and it's okay to laugh!) between visits. Ktspktsp and I like to do that on a regular basis, and we also send each other e-mails and cell-phone text messages many times a day. Have you tried a cell phone long-distance plan, they seem to be much cheaper than phone cards, etc? You can get a picture/text msg package that allows you to share little bits of each day with the other person... just taking snapshots or sending a little note. Also, sending each other snail-mail can mean a lot, with little effort... postcards, letters, pictures, etc. Just some ideas... I'll write more later, and I'm sure ktspktsp has some good advice from his (working, not school) side of things.
