October. October and yet so similar to earlier this year. My car engine blew again. Kia replaced it again. Ben left again.

I think I'm taking it a little better tho. He's been gone for a whole day and I have yet to cry. Congrats to me, I know. And because it's Wednesday and he'll be back Saturday... it's a little ok. Because it's almost 5 (ok it's 2...) and once the work day is over, the real day is only a couple more hours. And then it's Thursday, which is almost Friday. And Friday is the day before he comes home.

He's not out of the country, so he can text. And I can text. And we can talk...

But it's still really lonely. Having to cook my own dinner (or rather, pour my own cereal and open the cookie package). Having to do the dishes by myself. Refusing to pick up his dirty socks without anyone there to care but me. Watching the World Series and my 2nd favorite team actually winning. But without him it's just baseball. (Who am i kidding? I love baseball!)

At least I don't have any more childhood animals that can die.
