Marching Bands of Manhattan
listen to it. if you need a good cry, because whenever I need a good cry, I do. and then surprisingly, it always manages to make me feel just a little better.... last night I put fresh sheets on the bed, cracked open the epic book that I love but seem never to have the chance to finish, and had an all-out Death Cab for Cutie listening marathon. journal by the bedside just in case I felt inspired.
the point is, I love this song. and it reminds me of you. and it reminds me of other things, times, that I needed to feel like someone would open their arms and give me the city I love best, the city that gets cold in November, that makes me cry on long days, that won't let me leave. that gives me the best things and the worst things, the best times and the worst times, but still will never let me even think I would ever want to leave.
because it is a beautiful view, if you take the time to look around. it is really a beautiful view.

How did you know that I needed a good cry?
I miss you so much, Bon. I really hate this country, and I want to be in New York so badly.
Can I talk to you soon? Not tomorrow or Thursday...Friday or Saturday?
I don't know, I was feeling kind of sad last night, maybe we have that weird sisterly connection?
can you do your next semester "abroad" in NYC??? god that would be amazing... I'm sorry things are sucky- can we chat on Friday? I will be home until 11 am my time... so tell me when you'll be around and I'll wake up for it :)
whatever happens, remember: I LOVE YOU. and so do lots of other people. and so does america! we can't wait for you to be back.

Maybe around 10 your time? That way you're not up too early. Only thing is I'm meeting an old friend for lunch and who knows what we'll decide to do afterwards? So if I don't make it back in time, Saturday?
I miss you so much, Bon. Let's talk about when I can come visit too.
