OH how exciting, New York is totally a different vibe. I think i told kristen too, that when i visted i didnt wanna leave. its good that your not romaniticing about it anymore, but also be excited about it too.

Ill be the second one from the phils to say... its glad you're able to share a lot of your feelings and experiences... thanks bro.. your post about your parents put some tears in my eyes... i think i've been very emotional about this trip so far.. in terms of trying to understand what the people go through.. their coping.. and their bravery that comes with their comraderie... i try not to romanticize it as it is dangerous.. but dang dude, you know what i mean.... i see the same thing with the romanticization of NY when you were a youth. I hope things are really going good... again, happy berfday, i wish i was there with you going to NY. I only know about the bay too.. and more specifically west sf.
