I recognize that feelings of home take time to develop and grow, but in , after two years of living in Washington, DC, I had had enough of waiting. I wanted out. I truly believe that cities, like people, have personalities; DC and I were just two people who tolerated each other because of mutual friends but sat in awkward silence if left alone.
