It's been 4 days since hubby left to work at the other side of the world. How do I feel?

I haven't miss him THAT much yet. Sure we miss him when he's not around to finish off our food (we call him vacuum cleaner). Sure we miss him when I have to carry the rubbish out from the house into the rubbish chute outside myself (we also call him Ministry of Environment). Sure we miss him when we see lizards lurking around in the kitchen or the crazy flying insect slamming it's body here and there on the walls (we also call him - hubby, not insects, pest control).

But I haven't miss him in a way a wife should miss her husband when he's away. Reason being as simple as I'm well trained. At least this time around, we can communicate through email and messenger. That one time he went to Nepal for nearly 4 weeks, we were unable to communicate at all since he was busy climbing mountains and there was no network for sms-es.

If he's not away, he'll also still be away most of the day when he's home. He is suppose to work normal office hours but he keeps abnormal working hours. Sometimes I see him for only an hour a day - not counting his sleeping time. That is why I treasure weekends with him. (So you know now why I always decline for meet-the-fans-session on weekends :p)

So while hubby is away, I keep myself busy. With world cup. Wahaha. I finally get ourselves a digital cable tv. Very slow aren't we? And with the recent promotion, I also recontracted my mobile and get myself a FREE 8mp Olympus digicam. Cool huh?

Also, since I'm the official sole owner of the car for these 2 weeks, I've been given some tasks to fulfill. Duh. One of them is to send it for servicing. This is what happened in the cab on the way back from sending the car to the agent (car will be ready at the end of the working day).

Me : Bukit Panjang, please.
Taxi Driver : Which way you want me to go?
Me : In front turn right to Farrer then PIE.

I took out my mobile phone to reply to my sister-in-law's earlier sms.

Taxi Driver : Just now this road got traffic jam. I don't know why but got no accident. The cars all didn't move. Just stop don't know why.
Me : *continue with sms*
Taxi Driver : This road ah I don't know why they make until so high. They do this road until so long get ready but now become so high. No need so high mah. In front also the road go down already.
Me : Huh? *blur*
Taxi Driver : I don't know what the government doing. Take our money but do all this thing not necessary.
Me : *finish sms but start to sms to another friend*
Taxi Driver : If we never pay, they give us saman. If we pay they do all funny funny thing.
Me : *start to think of another person to sms*
Taxi Driver : I tell you ah, the world very funny. They not happy they change. They happy they also change. Make people confuse.
Me : *lermark dekni bila nak habis bebual sendiri seh?*
Taxi Driver : Blah blah blah blah blah

Ok the point is, some people do talk a lot, eh? Even if the other party seems not to be listening.

I wonder if hubby thinks that of me. Because most of the time, I'm the only one talking. Now I know why I only received two email replies from him so far when I sent quite a number to him. Tsk tsk tsk.
