old & new

i went through my draft folder in all my emails and found out that the draft folder is where all important letters and where all cryptic notes go. notes to ex boyfriends long long gone about problems long long forgotten. a letter of thanks to the generous people that housed me when i ran off to california for a few days. one that said simply, "240".
then i found this... i think it was meant to come here.
