i am using this as an outlet for the thoughts i am having after my fiancé just left for tour. he is currently mixing Bridges of Madison County on tour. it hit all of a sudden. the day after Christmas, the vague “have you hung up your tour boots” texts…by january 6th he was gone. it was not enough time to process that he would be leaving until july. yeah, he has a couple breaks where he can come home, but that doesn’t really make the days alone any better. “absence makes the heart grow fonder!” and “it’ll get easier, we’ll hang out!” And other ‘helpful’ phrases ring from people trying to help…but it doesn’t. I have to sleep in a huge bed by myself, and cook dinner for myself, plan a wedding all by myself….i miss my best friend. he is currently in LA, which makes it really hard to get our schedules together. he sleeps until forever, and then i have to go to rehearsal and it’s like the only way i can talk to him is for 5 minutes when he gets to the top of the hill he currently has to walk, or if i can stay up until 2 or 3 in the morning and catch him after a show. My heart hurts so much right now, and I just pretty much needed a space to vent and whine. If you come across this and have any words of wisdom, they are greatly appreciated.
