I've been sad the last few days about no one being there to hear my "Honey, I'm home." Yet, I have a lover. I'm one of those people constantly engaged in self-torture, or at least elected torture, because my lover is so far away. Like, in another country. I know there are at least a few others here in the same situation. Sometimes, it's really hard. I find it more difficult to deal with on a day-to-day basis than I did being comfortably single. As the internet expands our mating pool further and further, there will, I believe, be some societal changes in transportation, job flexibility, visitor visas, immigration, lots of stuff. Can't come fast enough for me.

Honey, wherever you are right now, I'm home!
