Home Alone

It's just plain weird. Wake up at 6:45. No alarm, silent house. No reason to be up. Something's not right. Take a shower, get dressed and eat. Wandering the cavernous house aimlessly. Visit the empty crib for the third time. Sit down and read for a while. Even the cats are sedate. Feed the fish and put on some boots. Get to work early. It's just plain weird...

Well, Em and the kids are in Pittsburgh for the moment, and I will join them soon. In the mean time, I am reeling from the difference between a family of 6 and living alone. There are so many great things to do when you live alone: order Pizza, spend time in recording studio, see Harry Potter at midnight. But, it's just not enough to hold my interest. Great for a moment, but not for a week, let alone a lifetime. Ah, well "It's Friday, but Sunday's a commin'!"
