[ blah ]
I'm sure I'm not the only one here who feels that lingering... blah. It's that time of year, when a long and harsh winter is finally taking its toll. I'm tired of freezing my ass off. I'm tired of being cooped up indoors. I'm tired of the sun being a rare visitor. I am SO ready for spring.
My current blah mood is prolly very efffected by the fact that August has been out of town on business since Monday. He'll be home this weekend, then leaves Monday for another ten days away. He'll be back Tuesday, just in time for our mini vacation to Chicago till Sunday. It will be no shocker for those of you familiar with our situation when I say that Monday, his first day back, he'll be leaving town for another few days away. *sigh* I miss him.
It's not like I don't keep busy, and that I don't have plenty to occupy my time, but I miss him. I miss his smile when I walk in the door after work. I miss him teasing me and then throwing his arms aroun me. I miss late night Halo 3 benders... and naughty bad fun. I miss curling up next to him and reading a book while he plays XBox, and seeing the excitement on his face when he tells me the latest tech news. I miss his warm, nekked body next to mine all night, and when I feel him squeeze me tightly to him in his sleep. *sigh* I miss all those perfectly little every day things that make life with him wonderful.
Sadly, I'm getting kinda used to it. I mean, Scott and Beth, one of my room mates and his girl friend, are fantastic to me. They always check in and make sure I'm alright, invite me to go out with 'em, and generally look after me. It means a lot, and I am very greatful to them. It's not the same, though. But, with as often as he has been gone lately, ( 3 weeks out of the month since New Year's), I am getting sadly used to him not being around. It bites. Granted, I get more time to play my video games and such, but I'd give 'em up in a second to have him home with me!
Other than that, though, I'm doing good. In a few more weeks, with the change in the season, I will be returning from my usual winter solitude to the world at large. Larp season starts, and it's a mad dash till November from there. August and I did our calender for the rest of the year... and it's insane. Between April and November, we have 3 weekends to ourselves. That's IT! >.< I'm not sure if we can survive our larp/fest schedule. Still, it's all fun stiff, for the most part, so I can't complain too much.
