Wednesday August 20, 2005

     7:19am  Just woke up.

     7:44am  I just packed up all my shit. Leave no trace.

     7:56am  Chris hooked me up with a cigarette in downtown Santa Fe by the library. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

                    This morning I had a good presentation by the library. I impressed this one guy a lot. He had first told me he believed in abortion. Afterwards he confessed, "Well, maybe the child being killed would be another Victor."

     8:51am  I'm talking to Kathleen in the plaza. What's your email, Kathleen? katseye_87417@yahoo.com

                    I just had a badass presentation with this girl with cool braids. I think she was Indian. I told her the spirits part.

     10:10am  I just had a badass, long presentation. I told him every story I've got. The whole package. He listened to all of it. I appreciate it, brother. I even gave him a CD. Pass it around.

     11:13am  They told me no at El Molero Fajitas. The guy told me, "Maybe later."

     11:19am  These old white dudes came up to me and told me, "I saw you walking around yesterday. Where are you from?" I told them San Antonio and hit them up for my story. They quickly told me, "We don't have time." Ignorance is bliss. Well, at least they know I'm doing it.

                     Oh, I see a pretty girl right now. I'm going to go tell her my story.

     11:23am  I told this guy my mission objectives and he said, "I'll vote for you."

     11:28am  I'm talking to Angela and Alita. What was your email? 8kuehn@unh.edu

                     That was a damn good presentation. With those two girls. I gave them a CD. They listened to the whole odyssey. They loved it.

                     They were from the East Coast too.

                     I'm talking to Katie and Jerry in the plaza. What was your email? jakatj4@yahoo.com

     11:33am  I'm talking to Janea at the Bullring. I asked her if she could hook me up with some grub and she gave me a five dollar bill. I appreciate it, Janea. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

                     Cool, she gave me five bucks. I'm going to eat.

     11:37am  I came over and hit Jennifer up for my story. She has to go to work. She gave me a cigarette. An American Spirit. I appreciate it, Jennifer.

     11:54am  I asked this couple sitting in the grass if they would listen to my story. The guy said yes, but the girl said, "No, thank you."

     11:59am  I'm talking to Matt in the plaza here in Santa Fe. What was your email? matt_ruffles@hotmail.com

     12:17pm  I had a great presentation with this guy, I think he's from England. He had an accent. He listened to the whole odyssey. Perfect. On my way to save the world.

     12:26pm  I'm talking to Christen in the plaza. What was your email? voysite@cox.net Christen recommends to see M. Juli. It's a German movie and they should have one with subtitles. It's a great movie about a person who just travels all over the world one summer just doing whatever he can and living off generosity. Try and download it for free.

     12:55pm  I talked to this pretty girl sitting there in the plaza. I hit her up for my story and she said she was waiting for her mom to come back. Her mom came back and I got into it. After I mentioned marijuana she said I lost her there. I guess she doesn't care about world peace. I thanked her for proving me right.

     1:20pm  Melissa gave me a cigarette after I told my story to her and her friends. I appreciate it, Melissa.
