Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

Absence can make the heart grow fonder, but it also makes the mind go crazy.  I suppose it's a double edged sword we all have held at least once in our lives.  This past summer I went on vacation with my family to the Sunshine Coast (if you have never been there, go).  It was beautiful, peaceful and I would go back in a second.  Unfortunately, my boyfriend didn't come with us, and as the age old adage goes...my heart grew fonder.  But what this tried and true saying doesn't mention is that absence can also make the mind go crazy.

While on vacation, my family consumed a hefty amount of liquor (responsibly, of course). Every evening we went to the town liquor store to grab wine for dinner, and beers for the beach.  And every evening, guess what wine bottles were staring me in the face?


I don't know how I spotted these wine bottles, but I did.  And everytime I went into this liquor store... I could swear they were taunting me! It's as if the world knew I missed my boyfriend, and through perfectly printed labels on bottles of wine, it wanted to rub it in just a little more.

Crazy? Yeah. But that's what happens sometimes; and its a shame there's no good quote for it.

Bring it on Jessica(s)

_______________________________________

real men dont love the most beautiful girl in the world.
they love the girl who can make thier world the most beautiful.

 The following is a list of women my boyfriend finds beautiful:
  • Evangaline Lilly- 'Lost' was his favorite show, I wonder why..
  • Cheryl Cole-he was a little too thrilled to find out she was going to host X-Factor
  • Nicole Scherzinger-let's just say he wasn't that disappointed when Cheryl got booted
  • The Jessicas-both Alba and Biel
The list could go on, but for the sake of my self-esteem I'll leave it at that.

I'd like to think my boyfriend is with me because I make his world the most beautiful.. He's definitely not with me because I look like Jessica (Alba or Biel)....ha!

Robert A. Heinlein

“Love Is A Condition In Which The Happiness Of Another Person Is Essential To Your Own.”

Robert Heinlein was a science fiction writer. He alongside Isaac Asimov and Arthur Clarke, raised their genre to new standards of literary quality. Through his writings, he addressed social themes such as individual self-reliance, liberty and love. He also wrote one of my favourite quotes. 
Thanks Rob, this quote holds so much truth for me..
