Monday February 23, 2009

     5:25am  I got eight hours of sleep. That's plenty.

     6:17am  All packed up and ready to go. I'm going to wait until around noon to go check if my shirts are done.

                    I just got out of the bathroom under the red parking garage. The Channing shops. I was going to wait until twelve, but I'm going to go up to Berkeley Screenprinting right when they open so I can ask when they'll be ready. Hopefully they're there already.

     8:06am  I just asked this guy on a bike for a cigarette and he made a U-turn and came back and gave me one. I appreciate it, brother.

                   Ahh, there's nobody out to tell my story to. I had gone to the parking garage to take a shit. I layered down a little. Oh yeah, and earlier I spotted this abandoned bike with a missing back wheel and the front one was all taco-ed. Somebody stripped it on the sidewalk. I took the liberty of taking one of the rubber handles off and tried to put it on my stick. In trying to force it on I broke the compass on top. I need to go to Walmart and get another compass. I'm going to walk to the Wingnut Breakfast now, then I'm going to walk to Downtown Berkeley and score a shower at M.A.S.C. and then find out about my shirts.

     8:35am  I just got out of the Wingnut Breakfast. I'm going to walk to the screen-printing place now. They probably open at ten.

     9:26am  I just got out of the shower.

     10:35am  I have to wait until two 'o clock. To kill time I'm going to pass out my website on Shattuck and call people ignorant when they ignore me. Somebody's got to.

                     JT hooked me up with a cigarette on Shattuck. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

     11:07am  I came and stood in front of the All Star Cafe. I'm walking to the library now. It opens at noon.

                     This beautiful ebony girl named Elom accepted my website and heard my mission objectives. She didn't have time for the story, but assured me she didn't think I was crazy.

                     Chendi gave me a cigarette on Shattuck. I appreciate it, brother.
 
     11:21am  I am having fun passing out my website on Shattuck. Agnita walked by and I offered her my site. She promptly invited me for some coffee. I told her I didn't drink coffee that much, but a hot chocolate would be great.

     11:55am  I am leaving from Peet's Coffee. Agnita from Sweden even bought me an apple fritter. I was wondering what I was going to eat. I tried telling her my story, but there were obvious language barriers. She knew nothing about marijuana and was very curious.

                     Right now I am walking to go get my shirts! I spent like half an hour on the computer at the library before. I had some good entries on my guestbook from Berkeley.

     12:12pm  Danny hooked me up with a cigarette in front of the screen printing place.

                     Pavel still didn't have my shirts finished. He hadn't put the havethisbook.com on the backs, so he told me to come back around four. I took a picture of a forest green one.  

                     Nina just offered me a banana in front of the Outdoor Cafe.

                     Oh yeah, I did a Google search for "world peace through marijuana" and I found this. 

                     Jerry was nice enough to give me a cigarette in front of All Star Cafe.

                     The greedy ass driving the bus won't give me a ride! Good little slave!

                     I got my shirts! At least I have five of them. Pavel will have my two white ones ready tomorrow. I only have five right now.

                     I just got to Telegraph. I'm going to put on one of my new black shirts.  

                     Rafael just gave me a dollar for the cause. I appreciate it, brother.

                     Joe and Danielle came by and smoked a brother out.

                     Sean was nice enough to share his pizza with me. I appreciate it, Sean.

                     Alessio hooked me up with a cigarette in front of Amoeba. I appreciate it, brother.

                     Cartoon somebody drew of me.  

     5:00pm  I had an awesome presentation with Samantha, Abe and Matt.

 

Whole Odyssey and everything. Thanks for listening, guys. You'll be on there when I update it.

                   Get rid of all the stuff you don't need..and make yourselves rich by making your wants few. I should add that in my Odyssey story when I give away all my stuff.

                   Jay was nice enough to let me roll a cigarette in front of Amoeba.

                   Jamie smoked me out with a big fat joint, finally. I really appreciate it, brother. Way to support the cause.

                   It's raining again so I have made my tent again at the storefront.

 

I'll take pictures in the morning. I forgot to take pictures this morning before I tore it down. Hmm, I need to figure out how to get the flash to work on my camera.  

Next day..
