| Here is the original.
Here is the updated version, a year later.
10. I miss you, dear. Yeah, you have changed. But thats ok. We all change. I definitely think that you learned from your mistake, though. You stopped things before they went too far, and thats good. Sometimes you have to just step back and reevaluate.
9. Things are still screwed up for you. Probably more so than they were last year. You'll make it through, you just have to remember to keep your chin up and try not to dwell on how screwed up things got. And just so you know, I don't ever want to hear again about how you can't do x, y, and z because of some other things. You can do whatever, you just might have to work a little harder. Don't settle. Seriously.
8. I never see you anymore. Once in a while we pass in the hallway but thats about it. Thats fine with me. Good luck!
7. Things still aren't great, are they? Thats ok. We'll all be moving on soon. We just have to keep trucking until we get out. In the meantime I'll just try to ignore you as much as possible.
6. Oh I miss you. We still talk but not as much as I would like. Heck, I'd probably have to move down there and then I still wouldn't get to talk to you all that much. You are so busy! But hey, don't get bogged down. Its beach weather coming up. We'll sit on the beach and drink when I go down there. Its cool.
5. You are freaking out about graduation, you are all grown up now! Heck, you are making me freak out. Its like my kid is getting ready to leave the nest. You'll be amazing in the real-world. Trust me.
4. I still trust you more than a lot of people, and I still tell you way too much information. And thats fine. I know you don't judge me for it just like I don't judge you for stuff. And just so you know... on those days when you think no one cares, I care. I really, really do care.
3. I heart you. Even if I get frustrated by you. Sometimes you make no sense, but thats fine, we are all entitled to our weird decisions. I just wish you were more honest both with yourself and with those of us that care about you. People aren't judging you for stuff that you think they are. People have way more compassion than that.
2. Honestly, its been a year and not one damn thing has changed. Seriously. Although, I'm telling myself that I'm over it, I'm so not. Maybe I'll believe it one day.
1. A TON has changed since I wrote that a year ago. I don't question your happiness anymore. I'm so glad you made a change in your life. I really look up to you. :)

| REM, Modest Mouse, and The National will all be playing in Atlanta at the Lakewood Amphitheater on June 21st....
I MUST GO!
In other news apparently Radiohead will be playing the same venue on May 8th, and I think the show might be sold out. Damn.

| Who knew such a tiny thing could cause such intense pain?
I was in the ER for 5 freaking hours last night...
Still waiting on tests to confirm it, though.
