Bloc Party? Hi, it’s me…hey..NO! Don’t hang up, please..I just need to say this to you really quick and you can do whatever you want with it…ok? ok.

You and I both know that we grew apart in the past year. I think it probably hurt you more than it did me. But I know now it was mostly my fault, and…

I miss you.
I need you.
I’m sorry.

I never told you this, but your first album was on my banned list for the past 6 months. It’s just that break-ups call for drastic, FEMA-like emergency plans and “Silent Alarm” was simply not safe for me at the time. Of course, this was not your fault. But look, you’re going to have recognize that if you write a lyric like “I’ll pay for you anytime” in “this modern love”, it’s going to provoke a reaction!!

Ughhh, fine. Maybe it wasn’t intentional, but whatever!

ANWAY, I don’t want to fight! I just wanted to tell you, that I was walking home last night and “This Modern Love” came up on its own on my iPod. And I am happy to report that instead of the emotional sucker punch I was expecting, I felt all open and good and New York-y again. I remembered our half-marathons together and your concerts with my brothers. I thought of how young and hip you make me feel because you’re the only band I like that doesn’t make it painfully obvious to anyone younger than me that I am 32.

Before my boyfriend became my ex-boyfriend, you all were there for me…fucking cute and talented and British and a rock band with a black singer.

So. I don’t know…if you wanna like, get coffee sometime or go for a run or clean my apartment with me…that’d be cool.

Or whatever…I don’t care.
