I started to reply last night...got booted...decided it was a sign that I should go workout. (The high-speed connection here is iffy...kept kicking me out of VPN when I had work I really couldn't have interrupted.)
Anyway... I've been moody this whole week. Not as bad as when H went to California back in November, though--I was near hysterics then. Although I've been picking my brain to remember what worked when we were seperated. That's helped some.
We've talked at least a couple of hours every day. Which is nice. I've gotten some unprompted "I miss you" type stuff, but he seems kind of funny about anything from me, so I've tried to stay backed off.
Although H is still coming up to see me this weekend. And a day early, actually. BIL2 had invited him to go to a moto-cross thingy on Saturday. I told H yesterday that he should go, when he was waffling between what he wanted to do. Said I'm coming home on Tuesday, and it's not that long.
Well, today, he said he is definately coming to see me. Isn't it funny how that works? (And I really was okay with him not coming up, I have plans with a really good friend of mine for the weekend.)
My whole deal with us being apart is that H came back from a vacation (with his mom, actually) really funny. I mean, alien behavior from the get-go. Granted, his two brothers were shipped off to Kuwait during the week he was gone. (They are now home safe and sound. )
I've learned that H often seems distant and less affectionate when he stressed. Guess that makes sense. In the past, he was always up and down...even if he doesn't remember. I never thought much of it, until he left. Ah, well.
Something interesting... H mentioned wanting to hang out with [female name], but wasn't sure if it would look odd. I told him I didn't think she would care, since she's hung out with both BIL2 and I before. He said no, he was talking about our neighbor, not the FF. (They have the same name.) He said it would look bad, if he invited her over the week I'm out of town, it's just that he was lonely. (We have talked about having female neighbor up sometime to watch a movie or something.) This completely surprised me...he's been so "I can hang out with who I want" lately, I was really impressed.
H also mentioned the other day that he was trying to pay attention to what things annoyed me, and to change those things... (!!) Yay for H! I try to do the same, but sometimes it can be hard.
We've also agreed we don't have much money to spend, and we're just going to send each other free ecards for Valentine's Day. lol Never mind I'm stuck out of town for the holiday, anyway.
