Time flies [WS]

June 9th, 2008 Posted in Drama Queen moments, Loving You, Weekend Snapshot

… they say, when you’re having fun. Days are going by so fast but I’m not exactly having a blast. Except when it’s spent with Mia,

or in a warm bath with no one to bother you but the alarm clock that says it’s dinner time.

I got lucky to get a room to myself during a 1 1/2 day convention at the Renaissance Hotel. It was lonely at first but after a looong day, the bath was such a welcome distraction to my then-depressed state.

What do you do, when something like a permanent fixture in your life gets yanked out? For me It’s like pulling the plug in the drain. The water quickly disappears into the hole and you wish you went down with it. Crushed. Alone, again.

I wish it was Monday again.

    That’s such a sweet shot of you and Mia. Sometimes a long soak in a bath can help wash away the difficult times for a while. Take care.

    That bathtub scene, reminds me of the “What Lies Beneath” until you submerged into that lukewarm water with little bubbles. Life is sweet eh?

    ako naman, i sometimes take my time in the bath to have some solace – it can be pretty stressful as a sahmmy din kasi.

    i love that pic of you and mia. :)
