my hubby is stuck in the middle of the Thai sea, and what was to be a 6 days trip turns out to be 10 days!! then another 2 days back to Thailand next week, of which a day after that off to Aussie for a 2 week training stint.

and because of one person, just one person who decided, 'hey i don't want to go to work anymore,' my hubby has to replace him and sacrifice 4 days of his life (of which one day happens to be my birthday, and a birthday that was supposed to be our first as husband and wife) for work.

i was already devastated the first day he left and it was further aggravated when i had to attend a family function. cousins, friends, loved ones, all just reminded me of him, and how much we enjoyed family functions-together. i could not help it, but it teared my eye a bit when i saw a fellow cousin snuggling to her hubby. i felt lonely in a room full of people..

although he is a phone call and an email away, it still feels a little bit different this time. he used to leave every other weekend for work 2 years ago, but i guess that was the time when i did not see him 24 hours a day, wake up next to him in the morning and the last person i see at night.

darn.. i miss him.

..happy birthday to me..
