12:33 AM and no one to talk to...


Life has felt rather transactional this week with Kathryn gone. Symbolically enough, the flower I bought Kathryn last week after her 'longest day ever' seems to feel the same.

I'm extremely proud of the success she's had. I think it all stems from the kind of person she is - unfailingly kind and warm, while at the same time unusually focused, insightful, and articulate. This makes her very good at her job - finding, recruiting, hiring, and befriending frighteningly intelligent and dynamic people (a bit intimidating if I stop and think about how I'm the schlep she comes home to).

I miss Kathryn! Come home!

11:00pm. I'm home alone too. However, I have the steady beat and swish of the washer to keep me company, as well as my computer screen shining dimly in my darkened room. It's ok though, in my case, I only have to look around to see projects calling my name....some quietly, but some so loud as to seem deafening. I have learned to "make hay" when Phil is gone, and to do things that otherwise I wouldn't prioritize when he's home. It's wonderful to know that tomorrow you'll be together...but it's a good reminder that you don't want this to be oft repeated.

so I am very suprised there hasn't been any posts about the season premiers for greys and the office. I have been checking daily for your thoughts . . .
