Today's OneWord: Jacuzzi
My brother's got a jacuzzi in his backyard. I don't know where he got the money to build that, until I remember that he's got a cozy job in the uptown part of San Francisco, and then I also remember that San Francisco's becoming uptown everywhere and there won't even be an opposite of uptown in existence anymore in this damn city. I watch as my brother strips off his shirt like extra skin and dips into the bubbling water, shorts still on. I wonder if he shrivels down there as much as he did when he was a kid.
