my apologies for the call last night. while i maintain my claim that it was not a drunk dial, it was definitely a tipsy dial.

that being said, i have been thinking about you a lot... it felt weird to be in nyc and not with you, and it feels weird to know that you have sad family stuff going on and i can't be there for you. it's fine if you don't want to talk or even respond to this, but i want you to know that i'm not having an easy time with this either and i really wish things hadn't fallen apart the way they have.
