AlektraClementine Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Ugh. Some days are more difficult than others. For those of you who don't know, my guy tours a lot. He's been working this slew of cruise ship music festivals. Normally when he travels, he's on land so we have plenty of contact. Emails, texts, phone calls, chats on IM. So frequently that it helps to make the distance easier to deal with. With these cruises, he's in the middle of the ocean so cell phones don't have range. Internet is so expensive that the only time we get to chat is when he stops by the production office. A girlfriend of mine works in there so he uses her computer to chat online with me. It's so brief and impersonal since we can't crud up her chat logs with intimacies.... Anyway, just "spoke" to him briefly and we exchanged I love you's and I miss you's and he had to race off back to work. I understand his job and admire and am proud of his excellence in his field. I get it. Totally. But I just miss him so much right now! Job is stressful. Home life is hectic and there's so much going on this week and all I want is for him to be here to snuggle with!!! He'll be home on Saturday for 3 weeks and I actually get to go on the next cruise. I need a vacation and I am so looking forward to it. Don'tcha just miss them when they're gone though!!!
redant Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Hang in there! Gosh I know it must be tough but sounds like u will be happy and with him soon
Geishawhelk Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Phew!! I saw the thread title and for a moment thought the worst....! I'm glad he's just temporarily absent as opposed to..."Gone" - !! Don't do that to me - !! I feel for you, truly I do.
Author AlektraClementine Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks and I I will be fine...It's just that when you have a 5 minute window you don't want to waste it you know? So I don't go on and on about my stress and I certainly don't want to add to his. When he had to go I had one of those moments where you get all weepy for a nanosecond and then just shake it off. March is going to SUCK. More cruises, then Brazil for a week, then a friggin bachelor party in Memphis. So I started a book club. Got 8 people and we're starting this month hopefully.
