Wednesday January 7, 2004

     1:05pm  I forgot that I had gotten to the hospital already. Right when I got off I was looking for a cigarette, but the 91 came and I jumped on that. I'm going to get to West early and I'll bum a cigarette there. I haven't eaten all day. I have two Boosts left.

     1:24pm  I just got dropped off at West. Man, I'm kind of worried. See, at the bus stop in front of Sam's I saw the black dude I talk to sometimes. You know, the lonely bible thumper who invited me up to talk once. He came up to me today and asked me, "Oh, so do you live there now?" I told him, "For the time being." See, I left Sam's apartment unlocked, because I don't have a key. I just hope nothing happens. I'm all paranoid now, thinking the black dude is going to go in Sam's apartment, or tell somebody else.

     1:32pm  Chris hooked me up with an American Spirit here at West. Haven't had one of these since I got back from California.

     1:45pm  David just hooked me up with a sandwich! Awesome!

                   He gave me a cigarette, too. Awesome.

                   Whoa, he's going to give me more than one sandwich!

     8:20pm  This dude from my training class was nice enough to give me a cigarette.

     10:17pm  This sucks. I just got off of work. The bus doesn't come for another half hour. At 42. And nobody will give me a ride to Crossroads Mall over by Sam's. I have to wait patiently for the bus. Man, I wish I had some weed.

     10:22pm  Edward and Bertha are hooking me up with a ride to Sam's apartment. So I won't have to wait for the bus. I appreciate it, guys.

                     Whoa, that guy Ed smoked me out, too!

                     Man, I really hope Sam's apartment didn't get broken into today by the black dude, who's name I forgot. Dude, that guys a major bible-thumper. He was all arguing with me one day about all the shit he believes in. He had seen me getting on the bus earlier. A while back ago, I was talking to him and I told him that Sam stayed home all day on his computer and he said, "Oh, he's got a computer?" So, I really hope that something bad didn't happen.

                     Usually if I think something real bad is going to happen, it usually doesn't. Like I'm jinxing it into not happening.

     11:39pm  Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. Sam was home and everything was cool. His computer is still there. I probably shouldn't have told Sam about my fears, because now he knows that I talk to everybody. He doesn't, on purpose.

                     I forgot to tell you, I'm hungry. And Sam didn't cook anything. He offered to make me some bread. But, I want some bread and some meat and some cheese and some tomato and some lettuce and some ketchup. So, I'm going to walk up to the Jack in the Box and ask for spare change for a Jumbo Jack.

     11:40pm  It just dawned on me. I was walking all the way to the Jack in the Box and it just occurred to me. Jack in the Box is going to be closed. That sucks.

     11:50pm  Steve hooked me up with a cigarette outside at Sam's apartments. I appreciate it, brother.

                     Badass! He gave me three!

     12:00am  I just ran into these guys as I was walking back to Sam's. After being bummed out that Jack in the Box was closed, I walked back to Sam's and asked these guys smoking if they could spare a cigarette. One of them goes, "Yeah brother, here you go." They hooked me up and I said, "Can I tell you guys what I am doing?" They said yeah, yeah. I told them so much of my stuff. The guy gave me three cigarettes! That's so awesome.

     12:03am  Sam's going to make me some bread. Badass!

                     Umm, it just dawned on me that Jack in the Box is open twenty four hours, but they don't usually let people walk up and order. You usually need a car.

Next day..
