Before Midnight

Drumroll, please!

Enter Linklater's third part to the trilogy: Before Midnight (as a follow-up to Before Sunrise and Before Sunset). The Guardian is being a little stingy with its movie rating, but according to the comments that follow the movie review, it might be well worth the watch.

Creative wedding proposal for long distance relationship couple

This inspiring and creative film clip of a man's wedding proposal to his long distance girlfriend (lucky girl!) was created by David Pogue (New York Times technology columnist, Missing Manual publisher, and Emmy-winning CBS news correspondent). 7 minutes and worth every minute of it.

Long Distance Relationship Guidebook review & LDR DVDs

Today I received in the mail a literary review from Writer's Digest for my published book, The Long Distance Relationship Guidebook, for entering it in a worldwide contest (alas, I didn't win the Grand Prize:). The following are the Judge's comments on what she liked the best about my book The Long Distance Relationship Guidebook:

You offer an interesting, needed, easy-to-read product. I like the personal stories (Case studies) sprinkled throughout, and the practical tips. The book's title are complimentary and front cover graphics helps portray romance.

So, while we're on the topic of romance, here are a few of my favorite romantic films for couples in long distance relationships:

French Kiss

The Holiday

Ladyhawke

Under the Tuscan Sun (Full Screen Edition)

Before Sunrise

The Princess Bride (20th Anniversary Edition)

Letters to Juliet

Thanks for stopping by my long distance relationships blog!:)

Arj and Poopy "Long Distance Relationship"

If you're currently in a long distance relationship, you'll probably think this video clip The Long Distance Relationship is cute, witty and funny. Here is an adorable award-winning animation short I found on YouTube that is spot-on when it comes to sharing all the mixed feelings of someone in a long distance relationship who has been hit over the head with a loving frying pan.

This is Arj Barker's Long Distance Relationship, Winner of the 2005 Annecy Animation Festival. All you couples in long distance relationships, I hope you enjoy watching it!
