Wish I lived by the water

Like Max Rockatansky, pre-post-apocalypse. I mean, I kind
of do anyway, I can see the Atlantic Ocean when I stand up,
I'm floating out here. But I'm in... a neigbourhood. A group
of houses. It's an obstruction between I and the water. Not
a particularly concentrated 'hood, but the left side of my
backyard nonetheless bleeds into another. Luckily all I see
if I look straight out back is wooded area. And whenever I
step out the front door, there's always some asshole WALKING
DOWN THE STREET MINDING THEIR OWN BUSINESS. Hard to take
sometimes.

There's nothing like being removed from that. Geographic
arrangement of our summer-bungalow- a road through the woods
(best part) leading to a clearing, then the house on a hill,
beach below, and it feels so liberating to step out. You can
sit down anywhere and not be watched by anybody, you can
piss anywhere, not get tricked into having smalltalk with my
neighbours... here in town, if they aren't working, they're
frying their bacon out there on their patio, just camping
out waiting to say hi. It's night and day, the way I feel
when I step outside in the country and how it feels here.

Thing is, the country gets rather boring, I can only
tolerate the overall country experience in small doses...
although that ''buffer zone'' around the dwelling is
something that never gets old. It can't. So maybe my ideal
settlement would be a not-so-remote on the edge of town
somewhere. Farmhouse or something.

How do you feel about your immediate surroundings... do you
feel free, do you feel molested? I feel invaded right now
and I'm just venting. I was out there reading, bliss, and
then my neighbours' brothers' kids or something showed up
and now I really want to go out to the bungalow where I know
nothing like that will happen. Now I'm in here. With you
guys. Yuck.

Wait, what does this topic have to do with living on the
water?

I must really be mad or something, I don't know what I'm
topicing.

Even moderators get extremely angry at children and then
immediately go down to the basement to go BaTsHiT cRazY on
messageboards.

I think I made some good points though. Space is good. And
whatnot. Water.
