Across the Pacific

Tomorrow David comes home from a last-minute, week-long business trip to Tokyo. For him, oddly enough, he’ll be home later today (gotta love those time differences!).

While he’s been gone, I’ve slept in late every day and occupied myself with all sorts of fun activities: lots of reading outside in the sunshine, dips (and laps) in the pool, time spent cooking my favorite comfort foods, and watching oh-so-many movies (pretty much a five-day movie marathon of chick flicks!).

I also visited San Francisco with Christana earlier in the week. We toured the de Young museum, photographed beautiful flowers in Golden Gate Park, savored cheap Chinese food, and met up with Sellayel and Sean for tasty treats down in Little Italy (so fun!).

Today I read several design magazines at the beach. Tomorrow I volunteer at LBH&G.

Yeah, I lead such a tough life.

The biggest surprise of this week is how much David and I have been able to talk on the phone. We’ve talked over an hour a day, every day since he left on Sunday and we’ve both felt like we’ve had quality time with each other. I feel totally in the loop and less left behind (last-minute trip = expensive airfare = I couldn’t tag along!). Not only that, but we have been chatting every day FOR FREE thanks to the beautiful internet chat service that is Skype.

So, yes, I’ve had a good week, but I cannot wait for him to get home. I want him to hold me close for a couple days. Thank goodness for weekends together.

Have a good one!
