Hey! What About Logic and Reason? Didn’t You Cover That?
I used to think I was born at the wrong time. Now I think I was born at the right time. Missing the Great Depression and WWII, catching the entirety of the 60s and 70s, and now beholding what appears to be the beginning of the end of society as we know it? I’m thinking the timing was perfect.
I was born during a ravaging blizzard in an upper East Coast naval base that apparently no longer contains a hospital, nor any history thereof. To this day there’s still no clear documentation regarding the hospital’s two addresses. Ten years ago I traveled back east to search the records myself, only to find the long-standing conflict of facts (does no one care?). Yet, there was hope; the local records office told me the case of the missing hospital, along with its address, was still open. The townspeople usually put it on the docket every few years if things get too slow.
So, my birth records are ambiguous, leaving me to wonder which of two New England states I can legitimately call my hometown.
