i asked her to give me a few days to organize all of my thoughts and feelings into a letter—a real, pen and paper letter. i keep putting hour after hour into it, trying to say everything i so badly need to say. this letter may very well be my last chance before the best thing in my life gives up. i hope i get this right.

i’ve made the biggest mistake of my life
I’ve dealt with a lot of heartache in my life, buy nothing has ever hurt like this.
I’ve never felt lower or more depressed than i feel right now.

life without you is like being in altitude—nothing is the same, everyday tasks are harder to do, but more than anything, it’s just so hard to breathe.

anyone know how to fix the counter (amount played) thing on iTunes? To wit: according to Last.fm, I played “Holocene” fifteen times in two minutes. Kinda makes me look like a sociopath.
