The message read: “Happy birthday, Binnie. How are you? Lately I miss you even more than usual. There are so many things I want to talk about over a drink with you, but right now I have no one to lean on. I’m sorry I couldn’t visit you as often as last year. The more I think about you, the more I try to keep working, because that’s what you wanted, right? But now I think it’s starting to get a little overwhelming. Haha, I don’t know. I’m fine? Your absence feels especially heavy these days, my friend.
