I have so many mixed feelings about Miami but currently the first things that come to mind are that song, Spanglish, driving a really long time just to see friends and endless traffic, guava and cheese pastelitos, bath and body works lotion and how my grandma would apply it to her hands every time she washed them so her skin wouldn’t dry out, loud gossip trains that you hoped weren’t about you, getting publix subs before going to the beach and savoring every bite, driving with the windows down on the rickenbacker causeway on the way home from the beach and enjoying that really tired half baked feeling from lounging in the sun and water all day, sweaty sweaty winters, sweatier summers, and somehow everyone you’ve ever met in your life knowing each other too
