Ask me something.

I'm bored today - have tons of work but no ambition to do it. Help me be totally irresponsible and ditch my work to live in LiveJournal land this afternoon.

If I could own houses in three places:

I would have one here in the city, a big old victorian somewhere on the hill above Dolores Park, with a hot tub in the back, at least one fireplace and enough bedrooms so that my friends can come and stay whenever they want.

I would have a house in Provincetown, with a big wrap around porch and a porch swing and some rocking chairs. There would be a bunch of old beater bikes in the garage, and upstairs rather than bedrooms, it would be a big "bunk house" with row after row of bunk beds(grin). There would be an outdoor shower, and an old Ford Country Squire station wagon for going to the A & P and to the beach.

Those two were easy. The third place would be harder to pick. I'd like to have someplace out of the country, preferably off the beaten path, where no one is watching. That could be a log cabin with a huge fieldstone fireplace and a state of the art satellite communications center as the centerpiece of a survivalist camp in the wilds of Saskatchewan or a Quonset Hut just in the trees off the beach in Bali, where we fish for our supper. I'd also like to have a little brownstone on Beekman Place, for obvious reasons. It's hard to choose.

Real close runners up:

Prudence Island - The house across that Hope built. With web access and satellite TV, I could be happy there for a long, long time.

#3 Balton Road, Providence RI (on the corner of Intervale). The house kicks ass.
