Man I cant wait to keep my ankles warm with my knickers in two weeks time! 
Finally something I can maybe advise a little on...for my whole weeks knowledge!
Seaside...an hour is nothing. Really. Try ten hours! Different situation for me though maybe, I have known him a long time, purely on line and chatted a lot as friends for that time. Seriously though, the LDR works great for me. Whilst he is not here, I can be how I want to be, not shave my legs, allow my lady garden to flourish, hog the duvet from the spiders, watch brokeback mountain, drink wine and not have to share it...and text all day long, dying to see him and enjoying the feeling. Then before he arrives, the clothes shop, the hair removal from eyebrows down (I dont remove my eyebrows, obviously!) then butterflies, the thought of just being in his company...absence makes the heart grow fonder yes? An hour to me is not a LDR...but then I think some types of people can handle them better than others. Maybe in a good few months time, I will fall madly in love and hate it. Or maybe I wont. But there is no rush! No pressure!
Ahem. So. More wine anyone?!
