Somewhere in that sky is Tommy heading off to a brave new world while I’m still here on the ground waiting to learn how to fly, but I didn’t how or where I’d even go.

I was beginning to get the itch that maybe I should do something with my life one afternoon when I was woken up by a call from a friend I hadn’t heard from in a year.

The few months I’d gotten to be in California had been a strange period, but I’d still have these memories, fond or otherwise, to look back on.

My move-out date was only a month away and I still had no idea where I was going to go, but I knew I couldn’t stay in California

Nothing extraordinary ever happened in this small town, and subsequently, no one ever had any reason to question anything.
