I think I want to live near a busy interstate, not really close, but fairly. When I go to sleep I’d be able to hear the distant din of lonely trucks driving along. I just like the sense of a great bustle happening near me (but not really near me).

I also want a place with a great view. A great big window, that just has a great view. Great views are the essence of great places. I love them! Or maybe even a view of a street corner. I remember one time as a kid staying in a hotel in San Francisco, I just watched the street corner forever. They were doing construction, and had cones everywhere.

I’ve never thought about living near a river though, that’d be kind of nice.
