Mood:

Ben and I have a habit of e-mailing back and forth throughout the day. Nothing major; he mostly sends me news articles and fashion show photos of preposterous outfits. I send him tales of how adorable the boys were on the way to day care, or remarks about what to have for dinner or errands we need to run. Sometimes I get embarrassed looking through my "Sent" folder; the bulk of the e-mails I send from my office address are to him.
Today he is in San Diego taking depositions, not at his computer. I can't e-mail him! And I miss him.
It must be a good thing, after five years of marriage, that we can't bear to be separated from each other. It's true: If he has to travel on business, he arranges for the kids and me to go with him because neither of us can sleep unless our spouse and kids are there. I know it's silly. But in a good way.
