Is it a lot cooler today or am I just alone?

I've always been pretty independent, and having lived with myself for 2 years previously I didn't think I had a problem with being with myself again. Will is down in Sydney for the week visiting his mother and I came home today without anyone waiting for me making me the usual cup of tea. It feels kind of strange.
Before I officially moved here, Will told me how he was going crazy with being alone. He starts to talk to himself, and he really really misses everyone back home. I kept telling him perhaps he could read a book or get some DVDs to keep him occupied, but obviously those things are not going to take up 24 hours of his time, and with the rest of his time, he just didn't know what to do.
Worse for him was that he didn't have to go to uni full time so he had plenty of spare time to have to entertain himself with. At least with me, I am busy for 10 hours a day and I only have a couple of hours before bed to have to deal with myself.
But still... without Will... suddenly, the house feels a lot cooler. My dinner isn't as tasty (because I had to cook for myself) and the tv programs isn't as interesting. Even the shower wasn't as warm and there seem to be echos in the house.
And I've left Kitty back with my parents in Sydney. Damn.
I suppose after having lived with someone for so long I think I've forgotten how to live with myself anymore. Perhaps its a good thing, because it is prove that I do miss Will and I do love his companionship. The bad thing is - what am I going to do for the next three days after work?
Maybe I'll get take away tomorrow.
And then I'll just stick my head in and do lots and lots of writing.
