ok
im beginning to accept the possibility
that summer will not come until sometime in july
i mean holy shit
this is ridiculous
rain, rain rain
and yep
a little more rain
the kids from the projects have gotten so pent up
that they've been blowing off fire-crackers
for three nights in a row
i feel like im stuck in a perpetual forth of july that won't ever end
all the dogs in the hood
look pissed off or depressed
and honey
thats a little un-nerving
when half the dogs in the hood
are pit-bulls
most folks ive seen the last few days
have an expression on their face that
reads
"too bummed to boogie"
except of course for the yuppies
who have expressions that read
"6,000 bucks for that partial share of a quarter share in the hamptons and it's %$#@^& raining on my week!"
i never understood the whole hamptons trip
you spend 10 hours in traffic
to arrive to a house that you share with something between 4 and 16 people
who you may or may not know, all for the pleasure of going out to
completely pretentious nightclubs and restaurants filled with the same new yorkers
that people go on vacation to get away from
then of course there's the beach
which is a pose down
of who's who
does give you great opp to play "count the anorexic"
anyway
its safe to say i'm not a hamptons girl
every summer i go with my best pal tralena
and my god-daugher zora
to greenport
which is sorta the poor man's hamptons
or the wine country hamptons
or the tourist hamptons
or the leave-me alone im really a person hamptons
depending on you who you talk to
we stay on at a rustic (way rustic) 1970's motel with a private beach
and private deck that looks out over the private beach
and we barbecue hot dogs on tralena's little "george forman"
and drive into town to
eat fried fish at "Crabby Jerrys"
or walk around shopping in the quaint little town
you can find people in greenport who wouldn't dare show their face in southhampton
for starters you can find...GASP fat people..oh my god yes...although according to southhampton
fat would mean anyone more than 10 pounds overweight
which makes me FAT and fuck you
i love my body
la cubana said of the last anorexic babe that strolled past us racing to the jitney
(for those not in the know this is the bus that takes posers to the pose land of southhampton, bridgehamton etc)..
cubana watched the 90 pound 6 foot tall pseudo model trotting off with her designer weekend bag
and said
"ive seen better legs than that with notes attached to them"
gotta love my cubana
she appreciates a real woman
but i digress
what was i talking about?
oh yes
the rain
it sucks
