From Herring to Eternity
“Wiggles had moved with me from New York. My steadfast companions after the divorce, they were named, nostalgically, for two of the happier times I remembered in my life: making it onto a formerly all-boys Little League team as a pitcher when I was eight; and getting an A+ on a sixth-grade science project that was a triumph of will over disgust—getting worms to reproduce.The cats had been a little skittish for weeks after the move. That was not exactly a surprise; the sounds of Bonerwood Drive i...n Nashville were very different from the sounds of New York City. Which is not a knock against my hometown; Nashville has fewer sirens, car alarms, and low-flying helicopters, but my borderline-rustic neighborhood has chainsaws, cars being repaired to the sound of vintage boom boxes, and the occasional what-the-hell discharge of a firearm. The cats also didn’t seem to like southern litter so much at first, preferring the Japanese rock garden that was a going away present from one of my coworkers.So while the ghosts, if there were any, didn’t make their way into my dreams, I woke to find my cats not on the “man side”MoreLess
