August was a strange month. In the beginning, I lost my computer to the factory for repairs. It's lonely without my laptop. But even worse, I lost my guy. No, we didn't break up, we just haven't seen each other. We talked, but nothing really in depth and not for any meaningful amount of time.

The strange part is that I don't really feel like we're that distant, but we've both been busy and neither of us is at the top of the other's priority list. I've been scuplting and learning how to airbrush, going to church and taking my daughter out on the town. He's been working, and then his kids and house hunting, it's crazy right now.

The longer out unusual relationship goes on the more I learn to appreciate the time we spend together, and to use the time I have to myself wisely. I don't want to be in this phase of our relationship forever, but I'm aiming for a new career and I need the time to get everything working.

I never thought I'd be in this type of relationship, but just like ever other awkward thing I've encountered recently, I'm glad I am in this position, and there's no one I'd rather be in this boat with.
