Tuesday March 9, 2004

     12:00am  I had a good presentation with the manager. He listened to my whole story. He agreed to give me some gasoline for my stomach. He asked me what I wanted and I told him to surprise me.

                     Oh yeah, when I walked out there were these two girls smoking outside. Now I'll go walk to Jim's on Huebner and go talk to the people there. Hehe, they sell shamrocks for muscular dystrophy here. That reminds me of when I worked at Albertsons. I was made employee of the month because I sold the most shamrocks, like three thousand dollars worth of shamrocks for a dollar each. That's when I first started learning how life was a big number's game. All I had to do to sell that many was just ask every single customer that went through my line. I was sixteen when I started working there.

                     Yummy, DiMaggio hooked me up with some badass quesadillas.

     12:13am  When the girl brought me out the food she told me, "Well, it worked." I told her, "Just tell DiMaggio he got credit." Oh yeah, and I just remembered that one lady worked at Denny's, not IHOP.

                     I'm still kind of hungry. They were some bigass quesadillas though.

     12:35am  I walked over to the Denny's. I thought I saw the lady I knew through the glass. I thought, "She looks like the lady who told me she'd hook me up." While I was waiting there these two cool, hip-lookin' kids showed up. I hit them up for my story and told them my mission-objectives. They told me, "It seems like you would be wasting your time." I said, "Well, ignorance is bliss, I guess." I should have just straight out asked them if they'd always been that ignorant.

                     The manager came up and I asked her, "Have you ever talked to me on the bus?" She said no and I told her, "Alright, later on." I'm going to walk all the way to Jim's on Huebner. Way the hell down there.

     12:45am  Nadine, she called me over. I was walking down the access road. She asks me, "Do you remember me? You talked to me downtown." Ha, that's so awesome how people just recognize me walking down the street.

                     I don't even remember this girl. Her name is Nadine. I gotta look her up.  Nuffin' on Nadine.

                     She gave me a cigarette too. Badass.

                     I'm going to go in the Pappasito's Cantina.

                     I'm at Ramsgate in front of the Shenandoah sign. I'm going to stop and smoke a cigarette.

     1:07am  I am at the Jim's already. Huebner and Fredericksburg. Huebner and I10.

                     I'll ask the guy if he'll hook me up with a coffee.

     1:08am  Jeremy is hooking me up with a coffee at Jim's. I appreciate it, brother.

     1:10am  Steve hooked me up with two cigarettes. I only asked him for one. I appreciate it, brother.

     1:50am  I'm telling Andy and friends my story. Mandy, I'm sorry. Her friends are Jesse and Sinaida. Mandy, not Andy hooked me up with some toast.

     2:40am  Eric hooked me up with a cigarette. I appreciate it, brother.

     3:04am  Brandy gave me an evil Marlboro 27. I didn't even ask her for it. Thanks, sister.

     4:02am  Jenna listened to my platform and hooked me up with a cigarette. I appreciate it, sister.

                   Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Eric gave me a cigarette. I appreciate it, Eric.

     4:57am  Eric, who I just talked to, out of the blue handed me five dollars! I didn't even ask for it. I appreciate it, brother. Thanks for proving me right.

     That was awesome, that dude Eric. I told him, "Thanks for proving me right." He was all, "I hope you're right." I told him, "I am."

     5:20am  Man, I'm having the greatest presentations at Jim's tonight. I have so many email addresses. That guy gave me five bucks. I'm happy! I decided that what I would do is walk to the Dezavala Walmart and buy me a camera because I got five bucks.

     5:56am  I just walked in the Walmart. I'm going to buy a camera. It was a good little walk.

     6:00am  Ooh, I see a thirty nine exposure one. I think it's only four dollars, but I'm going to go scan it just to make sure.

     6:05am  I walked out of Walmart and saw the 604 turning off of Silicon. I ran and the bus driver saw me and stopped to let me on. I'm on the 604 now going to Medical Center. Hmm, where should I get off?

     6:35am  The letter of the day is J today.

     6:36am  I just got off the bus over by University Hospital. Right when it turned onto Merton Minter from Babcock. I figured, "Man, this is prime-time. I can get a good picture of my headquarters during the day." I'm going to wait for the sun to come up and take a picture of my future headquarters. I bought a new camera at the Walmart. Cool.

     6:44am  I just took a picture of my future headquarters at 2020 Babcock.

     6:54am  I hit the jackpot with tennis balls at the tennis courts here. I never thought of this place as a resource for tennis balls. It's right here at the hospital. Duh. I've got three of them so far.

     7:00am  Jack hooked me up with a cigarette here at the hospital. I appreciate it, brother.

                   That dudes name was Still Will. That Vietnam vet in the crutches I talked to at the hospital. I just remembered his name.

     7:16am  First presentation of the morning. This black girl at the hospital. She was captivated. She didn't react too much while I was talking, but she heard me.

     7:24am  AJ hooked me up with a quarter so I could call my mom.

     7:29am  That sucks, I was trying to call my mom. She didn't answer on either of her phones. I missed the 610. That sucks.

     7:32am  Oso hooked me up with a cigarette at the hospital. I appreciate it, brother.

     7:48am  Dude, I had a great presentation with this girl. She got on the UTSA bus. Bam, I am impregnating UTSA like a bitch, man.

     8:16am  Man, I had some good presentations this morning. It was a good morning, even though I didn't sleep. Like I say, it's a full-time job. No days off.

                   Last night it was even no nights off.

                   I just talked to some girl at the hospital. She's like in scrubs and stuff. I just blew her mind. She agreed with everything I said.

     8:32am  I just got off over by my mom's house.

                   Why am I doing this?

                   Because I can.

     8:42am  I am at my mom's.

     5:05pm  I woke up like five minutes ago. My sleep schedule is all messed up now.

     7:38pm  I'm bored so I'm going to go walk up to the gas station and bum cigarettes. I'll see who I can tell my story to.

     7:55pm  I walked to the Braun Mart right on Braun Road here. I asked the kid outside if he had a cigarette and he said, "No man, I'm not old enough."

     8:05pm  I just walked up the Shell station and some lady walked out and said, "Hey, where have you been hiding?" I told her, "Everywhere." She goes, "I haven't seen you in a long time."

     8:36pm  I came across the street to the Diamond Shamrock. This girl walked up and I asked her, "Hey, can I tell you a really interesting story?" She goes, "No, I've heard it." Her name's Erica. I told her my stuff in Braun Station a long time ago.

     8:40pm  I came across the street to the Diamond Shamrock and Lannie was nice enough to give me a cigarette. I appreciate it, Lannie.

     8:44pm  I hit that girl Lannie up for my story. She told me she didn't have time to listen to me. I asked her to do me the favors and everything. When she got in her car she said, "Goodbye, Victor." She knows my name already.

                   Oh yeah, I am seriously contemplating walking out to Helotes again to go see my friend Thomas. I'll see if he gives me a ride up to Lake Hills again(5-18-03). I'd crash in his van again and go walk around in the morning. I forgot, I gotta get my tooth pulled tomorrow morning.

                   It's cool. Boy scouts just walked into the Diamond Shamrock. I'm going to try and tell them my story.

     8:52pm  This fat Boy scout just walked out with his fat mom. They totally ignored me.

                   This girl just walked into the Subway. Oh, there's a girl working at Subway. People don't come to Subway that much. I'm going to tell her my story.

                   These kids pulled up. There's a dude smoking in his car. I'm going to talk to them.

                   I hit this girl up for my story. She's driving a Grand AM GT. I gave her my intro and asked her if she would listen. I said, "Or you can just wait to hear about it when the rest of the world does." She said, "Okay," and walked off.

                   These three gay guys pulled up and I asked them. One said, "Oh, we got dinner on the stove. We gotta go."

     8:57pm  Some dude pulled up on a motorcycle and he wouldn't listen to me. He told me, "That's alright man, thanks."

     9:00pm  Chris gave me a cigarette. The guy on the motorcycle. I appreciate it, brother.

                    This one dude from West came back and pulled up to get gas. He had been here not too long ago getting gas. I told him, "Man, your car is a gas-guzzler." He said, "I forgot to put gas in it."

     9:13pm  Chris hooked me up with a cigarette. I appreciate it, brother.

                   This cool-lookin' girl walked by and I asked her, "Hey, have I told you my story?" She said, "Yeah." I said, "Oh, just in case." "I remember you," she said.

     9:35pm  I had a great presentation with this dude. His friends were all honking in the car for him. I told him, "You can go if you want to." He told me, "Nah, nah." He listened to the whole damn thing.

                   I told some kid my whole platform and he wished me luck.

     9:44pm  I'm walking home already. I'm going to go to sleep, or just lie down. I gotta go get my tooth pulled at 9am tomorrow.

Next day..
