Dear Tiffany

Dear Tiffany,
Bet you didn't see that one coming. It might seem like I'm going through the most important/influential people of my life...but I'm not, so don't let it get to your head. Haha just kidding. You're pretty important, but I don't like to rank people by importance or influential because I find most people in my life have done something in my own life that has been important or influential.
Anyway! I'm really failing at this timing thing. I know it's technically December 13 here now (12:16 am), but thankfully it's only 8:45 pm on December 12 there! Man this squeaky space bar is kind of driving me up the wall. It only squeaks if I use my right thumb...which is odd because that's the only thumb I use to hit the space bar. Have you ever noticed that? Maybe you can hit it with both, but I definitely can't. I keep hitting V whenever I try.
I'm rambling again. Sorry.
So what do I say to an older sister who lives across the country from me and has only some similarities to me? I did type "not much", but I'm realizing this letter is coming out super sarcastic. I'm not sure if that's because of the great mood I'm in today or because I'm getting tired.
I guess I should mention that I talk about you...a lot. You've made me grow in a lot of ways that I didn't really realize until today when I was talking with Nicole at the recycling depot (best place to have a deep feelings chat). What I've realized a lot is how much I kind of wish we'd been closer growing up. I look at all my friends here and they have these crazy close relationships with their sister (I live with two of them) and I think about it and I'm like "Wow...I would kill Tiffany if I had to live with her." (No offense. You'd probably kill me too) And maybe I don't want to be /that/ close with you, but I do wish we were closer. Now I haven't really helped in that department with moving across the country, but you have no idea how much it means to me that you're flying out here in the spring for my convocation. I tell people about you all the time and I'm excited for them to meet you, though I'm sure you'll think we're all crazy.
Anyway. I really hope that the lack of communication and...outwardly love doesn't ruin it for you. I hope we get lots of time to spend over Christmas together. I'm not sad about our relationship either by the way. I like it the way it is. I wouldn't want it any other way.
So I will be seeing you in a few days (or in a week depending on when you come home). Can't wait for it.
Love you.
Sincerely,
Yvette
