Sarah: Absence makes the heart grow fonder... or forgetful*
Lisa and Blake left on Friday for Europe. They're gone until the 24th, and I'm sure Lisa will post many pictures upon her return. It's unknown, however, if she'll be able to post while abroad. It's a shame to waste sight-seeing time in an internet cafe, and yet every addiction must be fed. I am hoping she arrived in the UK safely and is so far enjoying her time. I miss my friend, my errand buddy, my playmate, my sister (and her husband, obviously). But I know she'll be home soon, and that she's probably having a blast. When she does return, she better let me buy her dinner and then watch some guilty pleasure with her (possibly New York Minute?) so that we can enjoy each other's company. Today I noticed how pronounced her presence is missed on this website, behind the scenes, zapping spammers. I'm on my own. It's a frightening thought. I'll try to post often enough to keep this site interesting. If you have any special requests, let me know!
* This Robin Hood reference brought to you not only because I miss my sister, but because it was Lisa's favorite childhood movie. I never understood why, however, because in my opinion it didn't have NEARLY enough princess action.
Posted by sarah at June 13, 2005 02:33 PMI remember when my sister got into town. Suddenly everything that felt wrong in my life felt better again and I was ok. It was great. She's left again. She'll be gone for seven weeks and I notice that not only do I miss her but my general well-being which seems to be enhanced by her presence. Missing one person makes you miss other people even more. I'll miss our quartet. (Thanks so much for that sweet card!) And the boy missing situation? ... Well ...
CAKE - Never There Lyrics
I need your arms around me,
I need to feel your touch,
I need your understanding, I need your love,
So much,
You tell me that you love me so,
You tell me that you care,
But when I need you, (BABY)
Baby, (You're never there),
On the phone,
Long long distance,
Always through such,
Strong resistance,
When first you say,
You're too busy,
I wonder if you,
Even miss me,
Never there,
You're never there,
You're never, ever,
Ever ever there,
A golden bird that flies away,
A candle's fickle flame,
To think I held you yesterday,
Your love was just a game,
A golden bird that flies away,
A candle's fickle flame,
To think I held you yesterday,
Your love was just a game,
You tell me that you love me so,
You tell me that you care,
But when I need you, (BABY)
Baby,
Take the time,
To get to know me,
If you want me,
Why can't you just show me,
We're always on,
This roller coaster,
If you want me,
Why can't you get closer,
Never there,
You're never there,
You're never, ever,
Ever ever there,
Never there,
You're never there,
You're never, ever,
Ever ever there
I love you, Sarah! I'm glad to be back. And I hope you weren't kidding about New York Minute. Because, DEAN!
