Moping on the couch

This evening I came home to an extremely quiet house. It left me feeling empty and full of dread.

Nathan and his girlfriend Pam were off to a concert. Steve is at school like always...and even when he is home...he isn't fully here.

If this is what I have to look forward to in less than a year...

well...

I am opting to stop time now (that way Nathan will always keep the house full of activity).
