Ah, here I go again. Alex is well on his way to his connecting flight in Zurich and I'm feeling sad and missing him. But there's something else too. Because our plans are very definite now, this time of saying good bye doesn't feel as final or unknown as the past ones. Before we would always part wondering when we would see each other again. Now we know when and then that's that! So even though I'm missing him terribly I'm also so incredibly happy that I just can't seem to let myself wallow in my missing him all that much!
Brigitte the baby cat, on the other hand, is missing him horrible. She gave me the longest look when I came home without Alexander, as if to say, "Where did you leave him?" and "If only one of you HAD to come back, why couldn't it have been him?" Brig totally and completely fell in love with Alex this time around. She couldn't get enough of lying around on his lap and getting tons of snuggles. She's a "daddy's girl" that's for sure. I assured her he will be back and she seemed to have accepted that for now but she is still checking out each room repeatedly just to make sure he's not just off in the kitchen or bathroom at the moment.
What can I say? Alexander is very loved by me and the cats. Mostly by me though! :)
