Background info: My boyfriend of 6 and 1/2 years is going to school at The United States Naval Academy in Maryland while I’m doing school here in Miami. I see him on regular college breaks.
Story: Just about a month ago I was talking to one of my coworkers about shows we like and I brought up “Forensic Files” (I know its a super oldie) and how the theme song makes me feel “at home” and I wasn’t sure why. Its nothing spectacular so I wasn’t sure exactly why it provoked that emotion out of me. Today I was on the way to school playing my iPod on shuffle in the car and the song “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes came on. I’ve heard this song many times before but today it was like i was hearing it for the first time. All of the sudden it came to me that why I felt at home whenever hearing the theme song to “Forensic Files” was because I only watched it with my boyfriend (it plays on TruTV and I don’t have that channel at my house). We cuddle up in his bed and watch marathons of Forensic Files together and that is what makes me feel like I’m at “home.”
