hey buffalo!

oh, i missed you. for all your faults, you are a city that knows what's up. if it's cold, there should also be snow. otherwise it's just a waste of the cold. and your drinks are cheap. and your people are really, supremely good at giving pep talks. although they suck at making bets. but that's really more of an endearing quality than a negative thing.

i realize i was only gone for two weeks (almost to the hour), but i really needed to visit. and not just cause my papa was thoughtful enough to have surgery while a friend of mine was turning an important age, but cause i just needed to know that i was still capable of having a conversation with a human, and not just my cat. cause for a while there, i was really worried that harlee was going to start talking back. in english.

but all in all, it's really comforting to know how much has stayed the same while everything is different. it just gives me a warm, mushy feeling in my belly to know that i can come home again. or maybe that's just my morning tea.
