Here are some thoughts

My Hometown

1/18/2019

0 Comments

 
Before it was the site of a shooting and then immediately ravaged by brush fires, my hometown of Thousand Oaks was largely unknown across the US. If you had heard of it, you might have known it for being the second-safest city in the nation, or that that’s where Amgen is. Before a few months ago, I would tell people I’m from Southern California, and if I needed to get specific, I’d say “between L.A. and Santa Barbara.” Now I can use my hometown by name, and it feels really bad. So I’ve gone back to answering the old way, not because I can’t be so specific, but because I don’t want the extra attention.
