I was listening to Enya's song On My Way Home just now and I realized it's been 24 years since I last went home to Zimbabwe. I know South Africa is my place (and has been since 1987) but I was born in Zimbabwe (the former Rhodesia) and grew up there.
Yes, I miss it: I know the situation is bad there but I do need to go home some time.
Bulawayo (my birth place)

Just FYI, the name Bulawayo in a rough translation means "place of the killing" or something like that. Either way, :buggedout: :buggedout:
I went home to NYC a couple of times.
f**k that s**t. I love Michigan.
