places i think i want to go this summer
1. lake george. a tacky motel in lake george. a tacky motel with a great, old, pink neon sign in lake george.
2. fire island. a quiet, scenic spot. preferably without disco music or any noise at all, aside from the sound of the pages of the new york times, turning. and the sound of shiitake mushrooms and zucchini grilling.
3. cape cod. preferably a spot without rainbow or dolphin-themed jewelry or the sound of melissa etheridge or the indigo girls blaring during cocktail hour.
4. my alma-mater in binghamton, ny. it's a pretty drive up there, and i want to visit the radio station, whrw. maybe i'll learn something, even.
