This list is really touching. I feel the same way about DC a lot of the time, and I only live an hour away. I visited a friend this weekend, and after a late dinner we ambled over to a waterfront view bursting with lights. A perfect moment, but now I miss my city all the more . . . I specifically like that you mention "the grimy parts." Places endear themselves to us the same as people do: when you're really in love, even the imperfections move you.
Thanks, Marita!
