Michelle left for Virginia this morning. We left for the airport at 8, was stuck in traffic until 8:45, and got checked in in time for her to board the plane at 9:30. She called a bit ago to let me know she's in Richmond, Virginia, where she's visiting her dad for six weeks. She comes home November 22nd.

We haven't been apart for more than a weekend for two and a half years.

It's weird already.
