Time apart definitely make you realize how much you miss your significant other. I am definitely thinking this right now as I am watching Flight 93. It is the movie that follows the American Airlines flight that was headed for Washington, D.C., and shows the courageous passengers and crew members on board. I didn't really want to watch it because of how I thought it glorified the American citizens and culture while they were bombing Afghanistan and Iraq. It actually turned out to be really good. There was no heart thumping Americanism in it. I really began to feel the same emotions that the people on board and the families were experiencing. It was a good movie to watch. It humanizes 9-11 instead of Americanizing it. The reason why I missed Tom so much during the movie was because I was getting all emotional and he usually makes me feel a bit better about it.
I guess it is the little things that you notice the most when someone is away. I guess those are the things that mean the most.

Hmm...you were watching United 93, as I was watching World Trade Centre. I've now seen both - they were both very powerful movies, and yes, both were well done without the Americanism (it is possible! :P)
Hope you're doing alright.
