This has been _such_ a fucked up roller-coaster of a night. From a whole bunch of types of good to a whole bunch of different types of bad.

I'm having a hard time adjusting to NYC still. I hate the realization that I simply can't be free of my neuroses here because I grew up here and I will always remember how to feel persecuted here. And I'm not sure how I feel about the realization that it wasn't that I convinced myself that I loved Sydney sight unseen, but that I convinced myself it loved me sight unseen -- and that's the thing about New York -- I can love it all I want, but the bitch don't love back, which is _fine_ until you've been somewhere else. It'll be better when it's warm. It'll be better when I'm not menstruating. It'll be better when there's daylight and I can go to bed at midnight every night and get up at five a.m. (because really, that's the schedule that makes me feel happiest and most productive, but I can't do it in this season).

I think...that's a little of why I'm so restless in Philadelphia. I have loved this city fiercely and completely since I was..12?...but when I was away in October, I came back to realize that its glamour was gone, that really, honestly, it's not as equally in love with me.

next time you go to australia

you can break up your trip, stop in Dubai and stay with us for a while. Another extraordinary city that loves the people who stop here, and you will find a connection with the earth and the moon that is lacking elsewhere. it's a fascinating place to have moved to from the East Coast.

and so you know, i'm a roadnotes/coyotegoth fan, which is why i read you occasionally.
