Late Night of Loneliness

Well I'm feeling kind of lonely today, but I'm not really sure why. Funny how that is now that it's only 3 more days until I see my wife again. I talked to her this evening breifly. She asked if she could come home a day earlier, well it would work out to be 12 hours earlier. I think that she's not enjoying her last days at the workshop, I think people are getting at each others throats. She won't really tell me what's going on though, keeps saying she'll tell me when she gets back, I guess I'll have to wait. She decided that it wouldn't really be worth it to pay an extra 100 bucks to get home 12 hours earlier. So, I'll see her on Sunday.

So, tonight I took the dog for a walk, as I always do and because of the heat and humidity I usually take him for a long walk at night. So, tonight while I was walking the dog, I just happened to look down at the sidewalk to see illuminated by the street light a large black blob. I was about to look away, when I noticed that it was moving. I being the uber geek that I am, I had to take a closer look. Sure enough it was a huge mass of ants, writhing in a big pile. I couldn't really tell what they were doing but the mass extened from the sidewalk onto the lawn and the best way to describe it is as a large black pulsating mass. I have never seen such a mass of ants before in my life. Sure, I've seen the ant superhiway, and a collection of ants poring over the caracass of an animal or insect, but I've never seen anything quite like this before. I wonder if it was some huge ant territorial battle or something like that. The only reason, I'm mentioning anything about the ants is that I realized that by seeing this mass colony at work and enjoying the show for a few minutes, I knew that I had nobody to go home and tell the story too. See, my wife probably doesn't share my interest in stupid things like ants etc. but she would have totally understood my fascination with them.

Okay, so I'm an uber-geek. I believe I've mentioned that before. But, I think I've come to realize a few things about my relationship with my wife that I didn't even know existed. I'm not exactly sure how to explain it. It's not that I take her for granted or anything (or at least I don't think I do), I think I've just had sort of an epiphany. Weird.

Anyway, the other thing that happened while I was taking the dog for a walk was that we ran into a woman whom we'ver run into on a few occasions on our late night walks. I can't remember her name now, she introduced herself last time we ran into her. She just loves animals, and loves getting to hang out with Sammi (I mean who wouldn't look at that face). Anyway, Sammi has only met her a few times but he knows a sucker when he sees one and any time we see her even from a distance, Sammi get's all excited and bolts towards her. We didn't end up chatting with her long tonight she was tired, but definately happy to see Sammi. She would like a pet of her own, but right now she's living in a No-Pet appartment in our complex and her boyfriend/husband is allergic. However, Sammi, being a sexy Shiba Inu is fairly non-allergenic. Which is fairly cool for a dog that looks like a dog. :) Anyway, she's a very nice and friendly person, and cute. I mean she's not drop dead gorgeous, but what she looks, she more than makes up for in personallity. Sammi thinks she's one hot bitch. :)

Anyway, even though I'm married, I still definately find people attractive. The sad thing really is that since my wifes been gone for so long, people at work are starting to look REAL good, which is really odd because I work in a Chemistry lab and let me just be the first to inform you that for the most part, attractive women don't choose to do Organic Chemsitry as a Career. I should have so gone into genetics like the orginal plan then I would have a lot more eye candy. As it stands I'm starting to find several of the women at work more and more attractive. I hope my wife get's home before I start finding the guys at work attractive. :)

Anyway, once again, I've rambled on about nothing. It's time for me to retire, I have to get up tomorrow, and this weekend I have a whole lot of cleaning to do. :)

Later!
