I made it through my stretch away! I worked hard and I played hard. I almost had a sense of relief as I drove away from Angela this morning. She was heading off to visit family, so we sent each other off with a kiss. After a long drive home, it felt amazing to walk back in the house to a sense of familiarity! The wooden smells from the staircase immediately screamed “home!” I missed it. Sarah came around the corner as I walked in and gave me a huge hug and a long, deep kiss. From there, we quickly ended up on the couch to reacquaint our bodies with each other.
Sarah had made a full meal for our lunch, and although it had gotten a bit cold while we played with each other, it was a great homecoming surprise for me. The rest of the day was spent watching movies together and going out for dinner at a local french restaurant. We hung out at the bar after dinner and had a few drinks and talked about a wide range of things. Sarah seemed excitable, and I loved it. I had quickly put aside the thoughts of my past few days away and focused only on Sarah. Everything was wonderful again for me, almost as if I had just finished some amusement park ride and was about to get off. I loved the ride, but only for a short while. The only thing that was intruding now was the incessant text messages that Angela and Cherise kept sending me. I turned my phone off after I texted each of them that I was ‘real busy at work’ shortly after Sarah asked me why my phone was ringing incessantly. Note to myself…turn phone messenger off when I’m around Sarah.
