Hi, I'm a newbie.

Hi, my name's Brenna, and my boyfriend's name is Kenny. I'm from New Jersey, and he's from Scotland. I made a little timeline, 'cause it seems to be the dance around here. We've been dating exclusively for 3 years now, and between the two of us, we've crossed the pond to annoy each other 6 times.

Basic facts: I'm 27, and he's 23. We just celebrated out 3 year anniversary last month. I'm a personnel manager for a retail surf chain, and my dearest is a casino dealer. We have not filed any Visa paperwork as of yet, and we're really just now starting to research our options, to determine which route would be best for us.

We met on a random message board in 2002, and just clicked, enough that we started talking on IM every day. We were both seeing other people at that point, so we ended up becoming the other's sounding board, venting buddy, and somehow, accidentally, dear friends.

Our relationships were both going downhill, so we supported each other through that, and some other rough times personally for both of us, and after nearly a year of friendship, I realized that I really, really liked my venting buddy. Lucky for me, he's crazy too, and he felt the same way.

I'm glad I'm nuts. I flew to visit a friend living in London, and met up with K along the way. Not only was he not a serial killer, the connection was even deeper in person. We had a great time, and the rest is history.

Now we're here doing a bit of research to see if we can make our good times on this continent a bit more permanent.

Glad to meet you all!

K's lurking around here somewhere, too, but I'm more likely to be the social one. *grins*
