I really don't like it when Eric is out of town.....
........
The nights are particularly the worst. After the kids are in bed and the house is quiet, I find myself pacing around trying to distract myself from my loneliness. I can never go to sleep, especially in such a vast, empty bed, and the books that would usually enthrall me can never seem to occupy my mind enough.
........
Usually at these times, I endulge in my personal guilty pleasure: watching the five-hour BBC presentation of Pride and Prejudice. Since it drives Eric batty, I can only enjoy it when he is not at home, so it has become my standard distraction from loneliness.
