Not being alone very often, let alone for a few days I noticed something.  It’s very quiet in my house.  Wife even took the dog with her, so it’s really, really quiet.  I found that I’ve had the TV on all evening just so I can have some noise and break up the silence.  Not only that, but I found that I even talked back to the TV in response to what I was watching.  I sure as heck never do that… ever.  I remember a friend of mine commenting on his house being super quiet after he moved in to his own place.  I’m sure that I would get used to it if I didn’t live with anyone, but for the moment… I find it unsettling.  My family returns tomorrow and the crazy thing is… I’m sure I’ll be wishing for the quiet then. ^_^
