Phone Call Away...

It's around this time on certain nights that a wall of lonliness hits me like a ton of bricks. Some people used to make fun of me for talking to my mom so much on the phone. It wasn't that we needed to talk - it was that we were best friends - we loved talking to each other. I confided in her about everything - the little things to the things that mattered the most. Sometimes I'd just talk and at the end of the conversation realize that 3 hours have gone by ... she was the best. If I couldn't sleep ...or vice versa.. we'd chat. Lately I've been looking at my phone realizing...who on earth is going to chat with me at 11 PM at night when I can't sleep!? ... haha.. Tonight is one of those times I just can't help but bawl my eyes out about it.

Even packing to come back ...and here is where I sound like a spoiled brat. My mom always took such good care of me - above and beyond what I deserved. I'd go back with dinners and would always been stocked for months...she was so generous and giving. I hated packing this time around. I couldn't even bring myself to go to the store...it's just too painful.

Everyone says it will get easier ...but right now...that's just not the case...
