I will never forget the summer after my first year of college. What I remember is laying in my bed at night and wondering how the noises on Arch Street had never bothered me before. Home felt strange. The crickets that I had never noticed before, now kept me awake for hours.
I am going through this strange experience again, even though I have been living in Gansett for 8 months now. The birds in the morning are relentless. They start at 5:00am. I don't remember this being an issue last time I lived there, but now I just can't seem to ignore it. I wonder if this is because this isn't really my home any more. Am I just restless until I find my home?
