I am waiting. 

In about 120 hours I will be in the Atlanta airport waiting for my connecting flight to Internet City.  That flight will last just over 4 hours.  The drama queen in me wants to say that when I land I will meet my destiny, but I think that sounds a little over the top.

I am sure that I will meet a great guy that I have developed real and deep feelings for.  As I have said before I need to meet him in real life to see if the feelings are really real.  To see if there is a connection when I look into his eyes.  I think that is very important.  

I need to know if there is a physical attraction.  I mean if I get all the way you there are I get met at the airport by this middle aged, balding, fat guy, ...  well... I guess that will mean he looks just like me.  I'm kidding of, course, I have seen his picture and I have sent him mine, so I know what he looks like and he knows what I look like.  But there is a ... something... that draws people together.  Some people call it "chemistry", or "spark".  I don't have a name for what I feel, but I will know it when I feel it.

I know that IG and I will have a good time during my visit.  I know that we will have good conversation during my visit.  I know we will deepen the connection that we developed on the telephone (thank God for rollover minutes).  But will we have the spark?  I sure hope so. 

I am waiting with great anticipation.  I know that one way or another, a new chapter in my life will begin in just under 120 hour.
