under the stars: crickets

Tuesday, August 19

crickets

I actually hear them chirping outside my door!! I'm sure they must have been there another night this summer before now, but for some reason I notice them tonight.

I close my eyes and can almost believe I'm back home...

I miss the countryside and the sound of nothing but crickets and maybe the occasional coyote or owl.

...oh yeah, and there's the sound of another foreign-made car starting up as well.

Almost home. Almost...
