     7:05am  I just woke up. Last night I told my story a lot. I met this cute hippie girl with long dreadlocks, Airi. She came up to me and I started hanging out with her. She had a big backpack on so she knew where to crash. She showed me these trees right in front of the courthouse. Perfect little squat. I'm going to try and find Si today.

     9:00am  I walked up to the Greyhound station. There was this cool-looking guy with a backpack standing there. I asked him if he knew where there was any herb. He said yes and I told him I had five dollars on it. He said he can't sell me five. We walked around the corner and he gave me nine bucks worth. Some weed for my jar. Thanks. I was all out. I smoked with Airi last night. It's funny how I haven't had the urge to take a shit this morning. I need a piece of cardboard because I lost my sign last night. I need a new WORLD PEACE THROUGH MARIJUANA/havethisbook.com sign. I went to the Ralph's but all the dumpsters were empty. Then I went across the street and they have a recycle bin out here. I grabbed a box and I sat down and I wrote out my sign. I wish I had a camera. Right now I really have to take a piss so I'm going to walk to the Ralph's and use the restroom.

     9:13am  The sign I just made, it'll fit on the back of my pack! Like underneath the strings. Like I can walk around with it displayed.

                    Oh yeah, and I put my Fuck Bush shirt on. The sun's coming up. I need to take off my thermal bottoms.

     10:08am  I ran into Andrea with these beautiful dreadlocks. I commented on her beautiful hair as she was walking by. I smoked her out. What's the point of having it if you don't share it?

     11:01am  Brian just hooked me up with a cigarette. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

     4:28pm  I am just standing here in front of these movie theaters. I don't know which ones. I'm hitting up people for my story as they walk by. When they ignore me I go, "Man, nobody wants world peace," and I shake my head. And I ran into some guy named Noah who told me, "Yeah, I've already heard this story in Boulder, Colorado. I'll put a link to that(8-16-06-7:59am, 8-18-06-8:12pm). What a small world.

     6:49pm  I just told my story earlier to James Smith and he gave me a cigarette.

     9:30pm  Man, I am having the greatest time in Santa Barbara. I'm getting my word out good. I'm passing out my little papers. I spent like a whole hour making new ones. I was standing in front of some jewelry outlet. I went inside and asked if they could spare a couple sheets of paper. I borrowed some scissors too and I sat down outside right in front of this fountain and wrote out a shitload more havethisbook.com things. People are being all cool with me.

     10:02pm  Oh yeah, not that long ago I got hooked up with some dank-ass chicken and French fries. I was hungry, too. Just like in Boulder, people are walking around with leftovers. "Hey, spare some leftovers for world peace?" Someone hooked me up phat! I wish I had time to record their name.

Next day..
