live wires

BC: Well, it sounds like you guys are all doing pretty well without me this week.

Me: The kids are.  But what I have found is without you here I have no way to mark time, nothing really matters and everything sort of blends together.  Things are fine and I can do whatever I want without you bossing me, but it's just like having dinner and never getting dessert.

BC:(laughing) Baby, I miss coming home from work and talking to you. I miss how you can turn all the stupid things into something funny.  You never stop amazing me.

Me: Yeah, you should come home because I miss that part of me too...
