Missin’ Hubby

I mentioned an entry or so back that hubby was going away on a business trip. He left on Saturday and is coming back late Thursday. I miss him like crazy. My husband isn’t just my husband, he’s also my best friend, the best friend I’ve ever had. Now, most people will tell you that’s wonderful, and yes, most of the time it is but right now it kind of sucks. See, with him gone I’m not just missing my husband, but also my best friend, it feels like I’m missing two people, not just one.

I dropped him off at the airport Saturday morning, I was surprised when I didn’t feel like crying. Last time I had to drop him at the airport I could barely see to get back on the highway. This time I was cool and I continued to be cool until yesterday. Yesterday was the halfway point and I was feeling lonlier than I’ve ever felt in my life. I broke down and bawled twice, once in the middle of playing a game and once right after I talked to him on the phone. I just knew I couldn’t do it anymore, I missed him too much and I was just so lonely. I’ve never been by myself this long. I could have called someone to do something with but I wouldn’t have been very good company and I just didn’t feel like hanging out with anyone else. It’s him I miss, y’know?

Anyway, today has been much better, I’m past that hump now and only have to go to sleep 2 more times without him beside me. I’m picking him up at the airport on Thursday at 10:30pm and I told him before he left that he had to take Friday off so we could have a 3 day weekend together. I have like a million and one things to share with him when he gets home.

He actually made me incredibly jealous yesterday. I never thought he could make me jealous of something he got to do on a business trip, but he did. You will never guess who my husband got to see live and in person yesterday…if you guessed Neil Armstrong you were right! He gave a speech apparently. When he told me I was just like “No!”. See, if you didn’t know this about me, I’m really into astronomy, so yeah, totally jealous.

Hubby has also entered to win lots of fabulous prizes. What he’s at is a conference for Lotus Notes, which is what he programs for in order to put food on the table. Anyway, there are loads of vendors there and some of them give away fabulous prizes, such as Ipod, Nintendo Wii, Blackberry, Plasma TV’s and so on. I am so totally sending Wii vibes his way. I mean, he could come home with any of those items and I’d be thrilled, but seriously, a free Wii would just effing rock.

Anyway, I should probably stop writing. I get wound up sometimes when I write about stuff that excites me and what I really need to be doing is winding down so I can get some sleep. 🙂 So, with that I shall say “…so long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night…the sun has gone to bed and so must I…”

G’Night!
