I Miss Him...

Haagen-Dazs has a Creme Brulee ice cream. I bought it yesterday, finished it this evening. Munchkin just asked me, "Why did you eat ice cream for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?" The best response I could up with was, "Mommy's not being very healthy huh?" She said, "No, you're not, you've got to be healthy, you don't want to be weak and fat!" Ummmm.....Ouch! I'll diet when I've finished the Coconut Pineapple...

Okay, I'll admit it. The ice cream (and as great as it is) is comfort food. Creamy smooth custard ice cream with a swirl of carmalized sugar, mmmmmm...Well, for a brief moment Haagen distracts me from my misery. I miss him. I miss him sooooo much. He has been unable to call or log on to Instant Messenger and of all of the time that we've been talking, we've NEVER gone this long without some form of communication. And it's hard. Wow it's hard. Maybe it's because it's the weekend and I don't have much to do with myself. I can eat ice cream though. That's easy.

He did text me, to tell me not to worry and that he loves me, and explain to me why he's not able to get to a computer or phone. Means a lot to me. So, while he's out doing whatever soldiers do in Iraq, I'm hiding in a 4 serving pint of 'all natural' ice cream 'made like no other.' 19g of fat, 22g of sugar, 23g of carbs...*sigh*

I did manage to clean up the bathroom, yell at the Munchkin cause she was the only one here. Cried while watching City of Angels. Gets me every time. Love that movie. And the sound track is great!

The movie distracted me for a while, but made me scared for him. I can't lose him. But I also can't think about that. He wouldn't want me to.

So, now I'm going to shower, relax in bed, and dream pleasantly about him. Can a pint of ice cream really satisfy four people???
