Monday August 3, 2009
                  
     9:28am  I had a nice long relaxing morning at my squat. I did some sewing projects. I had stopped at Bartell's Drug store yesterday and got some needles. I sewed up my military rain poncho/floor and the hole in my pocket on my shorts. That's how I lost my last one-hitter.

                   Man, my sign can get me laid. That's crazy. I almost did last night, but that's alright. I don't want to have sex with someone I don't trust. If you get to see my crotch I get to see yours. I think she had some breasts, but they could've been hormone-induced. I should've taken her picture, this Somalian princess. I hope I see her again.

     9:32am  I walked Mercer to Westlake and just paused to switched some AAA batteries in my flashlight with two in my microcassette recorder.

                   I was told to go to Golden Gardens Beach on Ballard. I want to take the 17 bus to the very stop of 85th Street and ask the bus driver where the staircase is. There's a gigantic staircase that goes all the way down to the woods. I'll put that on my agenda.

     10:48am  Mario just walked by as I am giving out hugs and volunteered me two dollars. I appreciate it, brother. I wasn't asking for anything. Everybody gets credit. Thanks a lot.

     12:10pm  I just ran into Zack. He asked me, "Is your name Victor? Have you been to Berkeley?" He said he saw me in 91, but it must have been in 2003. He even remembered "FTP server from my spiel."

                     Justin who I talked to last night and told him my story, he told me I inspired him right now. He came up and told me how he just got a job at a fruit stand. He had been trying for two weeks now. He who knocks persistently ends by entering, I told him.

     1:15pm  I gave up my post offering breast exams in front of the Starbucks. I'm going to walk to McDonald's and take a leak and buy some food. Maybe I'll walk back over in front of Nordstrom's again and give out my free hugs there.

     1:54pm  Joe just volunteered me some food! I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks a lot.

                   More food I was given

     8:35pm  Somebody just stole my walking stick! My walking stick is missing.

     10:09pm  Justin and his friends, I was telling them my story and he's got some information. Justin: "So here is what it is. Your brain produces an Anandamide. That's what tetricannibol is. You have receptors in every joint, near every joint of your body. But, your brain only produces enough for your brain. For six thousand years mankind evolved next to cannabis, and what seventy years ago somebody decided hey let's make it illegal. They're trying to change evolution and change us from our natural synthesis of man and plant to something else, to just human. But, the natural order was for us to become one with this plant and use it and evolve next to it. It helps evolve our consciousness, you know what I'm saying? That's something that I just wanted to throw out there towards you and see if you knew about it." Thanks for helping me educate the masses. I'll wikipedia it.

     10:34pm  Man, that sucks that somebody stole my walking stick tonight. That's bullshit. I guess I'll walk around without one until I get a new one. There's no woods around here, so I don't know where I'm going to get a new one. I'm walking to my squat on Mercer Street.

     11:05pm  I got to camp about five minutes ago. I made my bed and I'm crashing out for the night.

Next day..
