happiness

I was supposed to awake at the crack of dawn because the stupid internet connection is still acting up and two in the morning is the time when it doesn't get too stubborn that I am seething with anger. Now that did not happen. Yes, it's still running at the speed of snail but no, I wasn't able to get up because I was enjoying my sleep.

Last night was ze boyfriend's scheduled off and for two nights in a row we'll be talking from eleven 'til sunrise. You see, ze boyfriend is working in the country's capital and moi? I am living somewhere in the far south. We have developed a routine and the relationship is going strong. Unlike other couples who were forced to part because of distance, neither of us believed that it is a force strong enough to drive us apart. I admit, it is difficult, but it is not entirely impossible.

Anyway, despite my very good sleep a while back, I still feel as though my eyelids are made of steel and I can't keep my eyes open any longer. I need to get back to bed and wait for tonight when once again, I would get to hear his strong, comforting voice that never fails to exude the feeling that, no matter what happens, I am safe because I am with him. Five days of insomnia and very bad sleep is worth two nights of listening to him speak. Because I am sure that, a few hours after, sleep will be blissful with him in my thoughts and his voice singing me to sleep.

Heck. I am a lucky girl.
