Why is it that when I’m trying to not think about a certain someone that everywhere I turn there is something that makes me think of him. It’s not that I don’t want to think about him because believe me I think about him on a daily basis but what I’m trying to say is…why is it that when I’m trying to keep my mind off him and occupy myself with other things to think about do I end up thinking about him even more because of everything reminding me of him? (did that make any sense?)

The past couple days I’ve been trying to keep myself busy and occupy my thoughts but everywhere I turned there was something reminding me of him. I went to Wal-Mart with my mom yesterday and she asked if I had heard from him yet which obviously didn’t help with the keeping my mind off things, and that’s not a new question – she’s asks me it on a daily basis.

This morning I was catching up on some of my TV shows that I had recorded on my DVR that I haven’t had time to watch yet. I turn Grey’s Anatomy on only to find part of the show about a soldier and then another soldier comes to visit him in his Army uniform and of course that made me start thinking about him. Just a few minutes ago I was reading a blog and they mentioned Iraq and soldiers.

So now I’m sitting here missing Seth more than I already have been. It’s been a little while since the last communication I had from him and I’m just missing him. I don’t need any help in thinking about him but for whatever reason the past couple days there has been something everywhere I turn to make me miss him even more. And every day I wonder if it will be the day I hear from him…I can’t wait till I hear from him again The times that we go in between no communication has made me really appreciate the times we do get to communicate even more. I appreciate a simple little email or instant message from him so much more than in the beginning when we used to communicate frequently.
