hey kids
i got my tuchas out to asbury park this weekend
to check on my sista
and then have a gals night out with my fantastic friends
from way back in the early 80's when i was just a tendy teenybopper
the divine websy, the sublime jade-lauren, the delish drushka
and we just drank and ate our way up and down cookman avenue

it was fabu my dears
and just amazing how people you have seen a handful of times
in the last 20 something years
can still feel so comfy and exciting
without skipping a beat

asbury is still building
up
even while the real estate in the u.s. is coming down
they did tear down my beloved metropolitan hotel
which somehow i had hoped against hope
they could save
but it had fallen into too much ruin
i, like a lot of asbury fans
hope they save as much as can be
of the old architecture
so far the new stuff
looks about as appealing as a dressed up million dollar condo strip mall
but im still happy to see asbury climbing from the dust

lou reed is coming to town in april
eddy money too
lots of the old rockers
find their way back to asbury
its got soul
they call it a city
i call it a town
but whatever you call it
its got something you can bite into
and for a new yorker
thats everything

to the great gals of the jersey shore
webs
drushka
lauren
and annie- who was sicky-poo and couldn't come
but next time

i say
we are all still fierce
fetching and full of fire

hear us roar!
