It took 2 nights for my sister and I to get halfway through the second season of "The Office", which is roughly 3 weeks and 5 days fewer than Pauly predicted it would take.
I am efficient when I need to be.

After raking the leaves on the front lawn, I decided to drive in to school today to escape my father who had taken the day off and get some work done in the library.

I did.

Sort of.

I spent most of my day missing someone and wishing he'd call.

It's weird, because I talked to him on the internet, and talked to him on the phone last night, and saw him only two days ago -- but I miss Spazzy when he's not around.
Not for any particular reason - sometimes I'll hear something I want to tell him or something great will happen and I'll want him to know right away, but most of the time I just wish he were around so I could give him a hug whenever I felt like it and get on with my day.

I think it's dangerous when a person becomes another person's security blanket. Is that what this is?

It was cool waking up on Sunday morning and knowing that he was in the basement. It was cool going to sleep Saturday night knowing he was just a flight of stairs away. I didn't take advantage of the situation - I didn't feel like I needed to. Just the simple knowledge that he was there - readily accessible was really, really nice.

It was like this when Nelly was in London, England. I missed her to bits. Now, she's in London, Ontario, and I miss her less than I did then. We're away for the same period of time, it seems, but somehow the knowledge that all I need to do is hop into a car and drive a few hours if I need to see her is really helpful.

And yeah, all I would really need to do would be to hop into a car if I wanted to see Spazzy... but having him right here... Now that'd be something.
