Long Wait

For better...

And for worse...

I'd forgotten how nice it was to have someone else around.

Having someone to hold my hand. Seeing someone else's clothes in a crumpled pile next to my own. Falling asleep to the rythym of someone else's breathing.

For just a moment...I felt...normal.

Only now, I wake up to find that the only voice calling out to me is my own. And I can't help but to wonder how long it will be until I have someone here to hold my hand again.

I have to disagree with the clothes in a crumpled pile comment. I'm constantly telling my boy to put them in the hamper already!

I got to remember that feeling again not so long ago.

It was great to remember, but hellaciaous to forget.

Bittersweet, I guess.

Courtney...it's not so much about a specific person as it is about the experience in general.

Copper...I know. We'll talk more when you get back from the field.
