Dear New Jersey,

A few days ago, I had a moment when I really wished you weren't so far away.

Because you see, a few days ago, I came out to my mom.

And being that you're the one that went gay for me over that summer,

And also seeing how New Orleans was the closest thing to a real relationship I've ever had,

I missed it for a bit.

And since I'm already being so embarrassingly honest, I might as well admit that I also have you to thank for kickstarting me down a road where I'm not absolutely repulsed by what I see in the mirror.

So, even though none of this really matters to you anymore, thanks. FOR THE GOOD TIMEESSS. HAHA. Nah, but really, for not ruling me out, even when I had already.

Word.

Regards,
Irvine

P.S. Happy birthdayy
