After Midnight

Plus Mark’s leaving for California next weekend. I’m trying not to think about that.
We had planned on meeting up in the Bay Area — but I can’t take off from work. I’ve now been away from California for more than six months. It feels like it’s killing me but I have to suck it up.
I tell myself other people have made greater sacrifices for their careers — moving an ocean away from family and friends. Sometimes I think I’m in a different world in the Midwest.
I suppose the homesickness hits harder on a stressful week like this one.
When I’m feeling blue, Mark gives in to my culinary cravings. One night, he made grilled cheese sandwiches.
Slices of swiss cheese between buttered sourdough bread and garlic salt. This comfort food tasted awesome after a late night at work.
