One of our directors has "asked" that I go to Paris to do some on-campus interviews on Monday. This means I WILL still see H on Monday, but probably not until midnight or so. I really have no choice but to do these interviews as quite frankly I'm lucky to still have a job right now!
I know for people in the US reading this you do not pity me for being forced to fly to Paris for the day, but it's really not that glamorous. I have to go to this campus out of town, interview 10 candidates, and then get on a flight to Dublin at 930 PM, and H will likely be in bed already...
I'm sure there is a bright side to this. Perhaps the positive is that H will actually be really sad that I don't get in until late and realize how much he misses me. Perhaps it will prevent an R conversation. Perhaps he will stay up drinking before I get home and be silly and say good things when I arrive...Maybe he'll be asleep when I arrive and be all cuddly and sweet when I get there. No expectations, but there must be a reason that this happened...
On another note I found out H isn't flying home until 8 PM tonight. He IMd me this morning to say good morning, used a joking nickname, and asked me how my night was. Other than that said nothing much. I told him about the interviews and that I might arrive late would let him know. He only said "OK". So anyway who knows if this has even registered on his radar.
Now I need to start booking my flights and hotel...GRRR
