Interesting

I am used to being alone. Even when I used to have roommates, with some of them, it was no different from being alone. I habitually cut myself off from people (a habit which is being replaced, but still survives, for now). I hide. I isolate.

So how is it that after only one week with The Boy, I can barely handle the idea of him being gone again?

Oh, I'll be ok. I always am, eventually. But when I dropped him off at LAX Tuesday morning, I was crying. It was all I could do to make the words come back soon audible. There is no such thing as too soon.

He has certainly had a profound effect on me.

Mark- I guess you weren't there when we had the 5'7" discussion, and a certain spidey kinda flipped out...

Tracy- I agree!

geek- plbbbbbbbbt

yes, so i'm two inches taller than him, and i need to get thin-soled shoes. so what? there are far more important qualities to have than being at least 5'9", and he has those qualities in spades.

I also have the best quality of all: a cane made of solid wood. So watch out, busters! ;-)

I think Nat King Cole answered this best. :-D
