Thursday February 17, 2005

     5:51am  I just woke up.

     6:10am  The 92 didn't let me on. I told him, "Will you give me a ride to the hospital?" He said nope.

     6:17am  I'm on the 92. This girl came to the bus stop at the last minute and gave me change. I told her, "Let's see if I get a courtesy ride," and she says, "Oh, you need change?" This girl works fifteen hour days at West Telemarketing. From seven in the morning until ten at night. Screw that. She gave me change for the bus. On my way.

     6:32am  Monty gave me a cigarette at the hospital. I appreciate it, brother.

     7:28am  I'm at the Citgo.

     7:37am  I'm at my mom's house. I'm going to see if there's something to eat.

     6:37pm  Man, I spent all day on the computer again. I've polished my stuff up perfectly. I've finished proofreading. There isn't a day now that is not punctuated and capitalized. All of 2002 I had unpunctuated and lowercased. And a little bit of 2003. I'm going to send my stuff out again soon.

     7:05pm  I'm going to go bum a cigarette at the Citgo.

                   Oh yeah, I didn't tell you. I didn't get a cigarette at the Citgo. There was nobody there. I'm walking down New Guilbeau. I'm going to walk to 1604 and hang out at the Shell gas station.

     7:39pm  Trey hooked me up with two cigarettes here at the gas station at New Guilbeau and Jean Verte.

                   That was awesome. That guy I got two cigarettes from. He said, "Yeah, I've seen you around on the bus." He didn't have time for the story, but I asked him to do me the two favors. He was all, "I don't doubt you."

     8:15pm  John at the Shell station hooked me up with a cigarette. I appreciate it, brother.

     8:47pm  I walked by Amy's. I saw her hanging out with her friends in the garage and I walked over. I asked Amy if she minded if I told my story again and she told me to go ahead. Let me get their email addresses. crazykitty_@mindless.com and mgeeting@hotmail.com

     10:17pm  I had a damn good presentation. I had just walked past Amy's house and saw them in the garage. I saw them smoking cigarettes, so I used that as an excuse to go over there. To bum a cigarette(even though I had tons of snipes from the ashtray at the Shell station in my pocket). It was Amy and her seventeen year old sister and their twenty two year old friend. I forgot her name. I told them all my stories though. I even showed them all the stuff in my wallet. I put on my show.

                     One of the girls told me, "It's all that matters."

     10:30pm  I walked back over to my mom's house. It's cool how I got to tell them so many of my stories. My mom all told me, "I was waiting for you to come home." I told her, "Whatever." She was veggin' on the computer playing her stupid game. She asked me, "Do you want to go buy some milk?" I told her, "There's no cereal, though." She said, "Oh, you can get cereal tomorrow." She gave me a seven bucks and now I'm going to Walmart.

     10:47pm  I went in the Walmart. See, my mom gave me seven bucks. I didn't think I was going to be able to get my cereal. She told me it was four dollars for the cereal. The milk ended up being like $3.22. I thought I wasn't going to have enough so I got the small bag of Cocao Dyno Bytes instead of the big one. Then when I went to the cashier and rang my stuff up, she said that total was $5.37. I told her I was going to run back and get the bigger bag. When I came back she scanned it and it came out to like $7.09. I told her, "I only have seven dollars." She hooked me up. It's this tall pretty girl Crystal. I left my tape recorder in the car so I didn't log her generosity in front of her. I'm doing it right now. I'm going to go home and eat some cereal. I've got a big bag.

Next day..
