all by myself...don't wanna be...

So today my first realization that Dan has really moved away hit me. He has only been away for almost 2 days and I have been so busy at work that i' ve barely had time to think, let alone be miserable that he is gone. However, tonight when i got home from work, my toilet got stopped up. Sure, it's really not that big of a deal to plunge a toilet but i don't like to do it because it's gross. So under normal circumstances, I would just ask Danny to do it because he's my knight in shining armor who saves me from things such as stopped up toilets.
Tonight was different though. I had to take care of the situation myself or let it sit there and keep filling up until he came up this weekend. I chose to take on the toilet myself. It didn't take much plunging and unclogged quickly. However, after I was done was when i realized that he is really gone. He is no longer here on a regular basis to help me with things like plunging the toilet, fixing my smoke detector, mowing my grass(anyone know anyone who wants to earn a little extra money and mow my grass a few more times before fall hits?! please?!) , recording CMT music for me when i'm not there.
He's only an hour and a half away and i should be grateful for that...and i am. It's just sad not having him around all the time anymore . Last night, after i worked 14 hours, i really needed a good back popping and foot rub but no such luck. i massaged my shoulder for a minute and ran my feet under the hot bath water. Neither worked as great but i guess it will have to be good enough for now... or at least until tomorrow night when i can see him again:)
