1 June 1987
We returned to Alexandria from Miami for a two-week vacation. We stayed in the Embassy Suites. I masturbated for the first time in the bathtub when my parents were out. I also watched HBO for the first time. There was a swimming pool downstairs. I wandered around the parking lot and hallways in the hotel that I wasn't supposed to go into. This was the imprimatur of my adulthood. A corporate hotel.
