Can't Sleep...

It's my second night by myself since my husband had gone to Florida. I really dislike being here alone when night comes around... At least during the days, I can go out and distract myself, but at night, I'm confined to the house (ladies shouldn't be out by themselves at night; it's not safe!) and I start to realize just how lonely I feel. The house just seems so empty with no one else around... I can't help but be a bit sad when I think about that.

Well, at least I am able to talk to my husband daily, so that makes things a bit better. So far we talk once in the morning, then in the afternoon, and then right before he goes to bed. Still, it's not quite the same as him being here. 

I know, I know... I'm whining too much. :P I guess when it comes to the people I love and care about most, I can get really clingy. I can't help it! Dx I have to say though, even though he's not right next to me, I'm happy that he's having so much fun with his family and friends. ^_^ He doesn't get to see them very often, being in the army and currently residing on the opposite side of the country from them. They only get to see him about twice a year! I only have to be without him for 10 more days. Compared to how long they all have to wait just to see him, that's really nothing. It makes me feel a little bad when I think about that... Still, I'm really looking forward to him coming back! xD I guess the saying "absence makes the heart grow fonder" is really true! Since he's not around, it just makes me want him even more! Interesting how that works... :P 

Anyways, I should really try to get some sleep. It would be bad if me staying up late persists and I look like a total wreck as soon as he walks through the door. Lols! Good night, everyone! Have pleasant dreams. :)

Is Time Speeding Up?

It certainly feels like it is. It really feels like this week just came and went in a blink of an eye. O_O In a way, I do like that it hasn't been dragging along, but at the same time, I wish that it would slow down a bit, especially since when Wednesday rolls around, I'll be by myself for two weeks. :( My hubby will be flying to Florida to spend time with his friends and family, since he's not entirely sure how often he'll be able to visit them once we are in Japan. Just thinking about this is making me miss him already! TT_TT

It's funny though... Three years ago before I met him, the idea of living alone with no one else around seemed ideal to me. I really thought that that was how I was going to live, and I was happy with the idea. Now, I can't even imagine sleeping alone in a big bed without someone rolling over to my side and clinging to me. xD Not only that, but this place is going to be really quiet without him, too. Hearing him curse and yell at the games he plays everyday has become so normal to me, and quite frankly, I find it to be hilarious. :P

*sigh* I'm starting to get all mopey, even though I know he won't be gone forever. Plus, I am the one who decided to stay behind on the trip this time around, since I want to spend a bit more time with my mother and my brother, who is coming in from Georgia for leave (my brother is also in the army). Well, thinking about it now, I suppose I won't be completely alone after all, but for the most part, I will be. It's a shame that I can't really spend the night at my mom's place or wherever my brother will happen to be staying, since I have my furry babies to look after and I surely can't take them all with me. v_v;

Ugh! I need to think positive! I shouldn't feel so glum! I'm perfectly capable of having fun on my own. This could be a good opportunity for me to have more time to do the things I enjoy doing, such as reading and maybe going out and doing some shopping... It's not like I live far away from a certain tourist area (which shall not be named for private reasons), so I have no reason to stay at home bored. Maybe it may be nice to go out to eat somewhere by myself, either. If I keep myself as busy as possible, it won't be so bad. Thinking of it like that makes me feel a bit better already! ^.^
