I crave alone time, it's something I need to function properly or I get overwhelmed by crowds, especially since I regularly do customer service/ public speaking/ etc etc. It's been one of those thousand little irritants this semester (and indeed this year) that I haven't had many days at home because if I'm not in class I've been working, and then doing things and stuff and going places on weekends. And then on the few times I have had a weekday off where I haven't had to go anywhere... Jake has also been home. It's not really an issue, he stays in his room unless he requires the bathroom or food, and I'm in the living room/ computer room/ sewing room depending on what's going on. But I know he's there. And I have to wear pants :p
This afternoon, I dropped Jake at the train station and by now he should be in the air on his way to Bahrain. He'll be gone for 2 months, coming back sometime in January before uni goes back. Adam and I get to be a real married couple for a while and live in a house by ourselves!
However, Adam is currently still at work. Yes it is after 11pm here. The whole office is off to a conference on Sunday morning and they have to showcase their program product, so the last of the bits have to be ironed and polished. He normally gets home about 7:30-8pm, the last week it's been between 10:30 and 11:30pm, and tonight he probably won't leave the office til midnight. At least after conference it'll all calm down a bit (I hope). With all my uni shit and this, we haven't eaten dinner together for coming up on 3 weeks. And he's away for half of next week for the actual conference.
So yeah, having the house to myself isn't nearly as calming as I usually find it.
adam stuff,
