i just got back to los angeles from my visit to new york.

as i began my final descent into l.a., i felt like i was getting ready to break up with someone...only the someone wasn't a person, but a city.

how would i say it? los angeles, it's been a great two years. probably the best two years of my life. but there's someplace else.

it's not you! it's me. you see, it always felt right with you...until i met nyc. it was love at first glance. just like in the movies. i know nyc and i have only been together for three and a half days, but the electricity between us is palpable. you know? like it was with us when we first met? i know it's wrong to compare.

oh sure, it would be more practical to stay with you. you're less moody...more temperate and mellow.

don't get me wrong, l.a., i'm still attracted to you and we do have a lot in common. i don't want to miss out on time with our mutual friends. and you give me space like nyc never could.

oh god, l.a., i'm sorry i'm jerking you around like this. i guess i just need time to think...to test the waters...to read want ads...

the wanting is the hardest part.
