I am sitting here at work taking a breather from the code that I have been diving in all day. I’m just about finished with the task I wanted to complete for the day when I was thinking about my girlfriend, Bonnie. I was thinking of all of the things that I miss when she is not around. Then, I started to think that there were also some things I didn’t miss quite so much. So, here is my first attempt at a list for this blog:

5 Things I Miss About Bonnie When I Am at Work

• Being able to make her smile, and see it on her face.
• Seeing that look in her eyes that lets me know that she is struggling to contain herself…
• When she randomly bothers me to ask the question, “Can I sit here and bother you with something?”
• Having someone around to channel surf for me.
• The occasional, random, kiss.

So, to be honest, and to keep this blog worth reading I have to post the things that I do not miss about Bonnie when I am at work.

5 Things I Do Not Miss About Bonnie When I Am at Work

• Having to remove my headphones or turn down my music because she likes to talk to me when I am not able to listen well.
• The occasional random rant about how I should be paying more attention to her when she is ranting.
• Resisting the urge to scream when she starts cleaning everything around me. It’s not that I’m lazy, I just don’t want to right now.
• Watching her get upset at me when she starts talking on the cell phone and I do something loud. If you wanted to talk in private, why didn’t you go to a private area?
• Angling my laptop just right so she can squint her eyes to barely see the YouTube video I want to show her.
