Seattle, WA
6:01am I've been up since five. 11-5 sleep.
7:31am Up and at 'em. I had a nice, relaxing morning at my squat. It seems as if I can stay there all day if I wanted to. Nobody goes back there. There are even signs that say no trespassing. Criminal trespass will be enforced. Whateva, come get me. I am waiting for you guys.
Space Needle, downtown
7:53am I just walked to the McDonald's on Virginia. I'm going to go take a shit and get some ice.
I'm going to walk over to the McDonald's on Pine, because there was a bum on the toilet. I bought a McSkillet Burrito. I don't know what I'm going to do today. I'll probably offer free hugs and breast exams and pass out my website to people. Same old shit, saving the world. It's Sunday, after all.
I wish I could go to the library, but I can't because my bags are too big. I don't even know if it's open today.
This morning I took my sweet time getting up. I re-rolled my big tarp real tight. My sleeping pad too. It's perfect. I took my time getting out this morning. Let's see what happens today. My pack.
Walked by this Bioquest place
Second picture taken of me today. This family.
10:28am I am leaving the Barnes and Noble. I had some morning projects. I wrote out a list of thing I need to buy with this money. Pocket atlas, mouthwash, towel, tennis balls, sewing needles, ShoeGoo. I'm going to go look for tennis balls at 3rd and Madison, some guy told me. I might just go look for a college.
10:33am I thought I was going to go look for tennis balls, but screw it. I'm on Pine Street right now. I set up in front of the Nordstrom's here. I'm going to give out free hugs and breast exams, hehe.
Haha, I tell people as they walk by and read my sign, "Come on, give me some sugar."
Shitloads of people have taken pictures of me. I haven't been keeping track. I'm all stoned.
I also tell them, "It's all a number's game."
"There's no such thing as bad publicity." I'll say that one too.
10:57am About ten minutes ago I put away my breast exams sign. Maybe I shouldn't have.
Bolded in Breast Exams
12:14pm Somebody else asked to take a picture of me. I'm not going to keep track.
Right now this fat lady yelled at me, "You are so naive on what that(marijuana) does to your body. Blah, blah, blah your frontal cortex. I'm a doctor." I should have told her, "If you were really a doctor you would know better and wouldn't be overweight. Don't you know better?" And this guy who had stopped to talk to me was all backing me up. Since I'm stoned I didn't get to tell her that. Hindsight is always twenty-twenty.
1:49pm I'm here in front of Nordstrom's. I saw a street kid spanging with a sign that says, "Victim of extreme douchbagery. Anything helps." Then, Justin walked by and I offered him my website and told him my story. Justin: "This is what happened. The chance encounter of meeting you and being here right now. I got here two weeks ago and I've been hitching too. I recently, about a week ago met up with a girl who is trying to get me caught up in a job and living with her. I realized from this chance encounter that there is no reason for me to feel down and out or inadequate because I don't have a job or any of these things. What really matters is what I was trying to do in the first place, and that's what this meeting reminded me of, and that's finding who I really am, following my heart and my dreams and realizing that all this around me IS an illusion. In order for me to wake up I have to follow my own path. Not anybody else's or whatever everybody else is doing."
Right now this lady walked by and said, "That's offensive." I told her, "Do something about it. I dare you." I got a permit, The Constitution.

2:50pm I am having an awesome presentation with Laura right now. Right before I started my odyssey she volunteered me a cigarette. I appreciate it, Laura. Everybody gets credit.
Laura, beautiful girl. She's on her way to work-out somewhere.
4:58pm I just had an awesome presentation with beautiful Riley, wow, a really hot girl with beautiful eyes. She listened to me beautifully. Note from the rich and everything.
Man, since I have to yell my stories because downtown is so loud, I am almost sure I am spitting on people as I talk to them. People are always wiping their faces.
7:06pm I ran into Chris who told me I met him in Santa Fe. When was this? Chris: "This was 2006. I recognized you from your stick." Where did I meet you in Santa Fe? In the plaza? That time I get 86ed from Santa Fe by the punk kids because they didn't like me telling my story? I'll look it up.
Whoa, I might get laid by some homeless chick, I don't know. She grabbed my crotch and told me, "Let's talk about sex."
Right now this crazy lady with a foreign accent, I tried to tell her my story, but she wouldn't listen at all. She told me let's talk about sex. Then she just walked off. She ended up taking my one-hitter and lighter because I had given her a hit. When I realized I used my spidey senses to find her and catch up with her. I got it back. My pipe and my lighter.
I took a leak down this drain in an alley.

8:42pm Some more magic happened. Conner and Aaron just stopped and talked to me and listened to my story. They just volunteered me a twenty dollar bill! This is already the third one I've gotten in Seattle. Wow. Everybody gets credit, man. Thanks a lot. See, everybody. A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT WORLD PEACE, not just me. Oh yeah, I'm going to Canada. Thanks for the sign. It's about the time of year to go.

I'm going to Canada! You don't need a passport, after all. Not if you're going and coming back. I'm going to Canada!
I forgot I rode the bus so I'm further than I thought. University Street, U of W and Boylston and Union Park.
Over on University I went in the QFC and bought some bagels and cream cheese. Spent like six bucks.
