Just a thought

So it has been about a week since the last time I saw Tabetha. I have been here at home schooling and working and she has been house sitting for her parents and doing research. We were discussing over the phone how whenever people are alone for extended periods of time they tend to revert back to old behaviors from before they were with someone. At the time it was just an observation but I have formed a theory as to why it is true. The past couple of days I have went to Starbucks to study for my chemistry test. Going to Starbucks to study is something Tabetha and I do together a lot. I noticed today that while I was there studying I became very lonely and missed her way more than I have the rest of this week. So this is my theory, if I ate the foods we normally eat and watched the shows we normally watch and did any of the other things we normally do her absence would be more noticeable, so instead I do completely different things. I'm not saying that I don't miss her when I do different things, just that I don't miss her as much. Fortunately she'll be back tomorrow, and I can stop eating a McDonald's.
