It's 8:30 AM, and it's already one of those days when I inexplicably miss Gary.
I last saw him about an hour and a half ago, and i'm already daydreaming about him.
That spot directly behind his ear that I love to kiss.
Cuddling on the couch with his arms around me and my legs draped over his lap.
Saturday mornings, when neither of us has anywhere to be, laying in bed, laughing and smiling with one another.
I just got to work a half hour ago and already I wish the day was over so I could go home and see him again.
The first thing to note would be that i'm not some crazy clingy obsessive person or anything. I miss him right now because over the last few days we haven't had one of our long, engrossing conversations or had that much one-on-one time together.
Saturday night, we went to my work Christmas party, at which we spent more time mingling and watching my co-workers open their secret santa gifts than talking to one another. Sunday through today, we've been hanging out in the same room in the evenings but kind of doing our own thing.
He has this chair with wheels that he loves to sit in, so he's usually a few feet away from me, reading a book, while i'm in my usual position on the couch, using my laptop. We don't sit in complete silence of course, but the connection isn't the same. I miss the quality conversation and the physical closeness.
I think i'll call him in a little while and see if he wants to go shopping for a Christmas tree tonight. We've been putting it off but I think it will be the perfect activity for us to spend some quality time together. Up until now, we've been using a fake tree, so it'll be exciting to buy our first real tree!
Then maybe later I can convince him to get his ass outta that chair, surrender it over to Polly for a while, and come snuggle next to me by the fire to admire the tree.
