 2:04pm  I am going to go and get some money from Walmart.  My Tita is sending me some money from my account in Modester.  I'm going to able to use some of it here in San Antonio, and to help my mom out.  I can buy me some real coffee!  I've been making me my mom's instant crap.  Chemicals and stuff.  Corny syrup, yuck.  I got $260 and I gave sixty to my mom.  I also bought a $5 tube if ShoeGOO which I need to treat my new golf shoes with.

3:37pm  I have a really magical update to make.  At first I thought I was going to do yesterday in reverse.  Yesterday I walked down Guilbeau to the Walmart on Bandera and Mainland, entered the Leon Creek Greenway walking path to OP Shnabel Park, where I spent much of my growing years.  It used to be an archery range, back in the day.  

                Anyway, I was going to do it in reverse since I was already at the Walmart with my mom.  Not long after I started I realized, "F it, I've got money, I don't need to end up at Braun Road.  I need to aim for Guilbeau, The HEB, the grocery store where they sell organic coffee(hopefully).  

                I could've just turned around and crossed Bandera in front of the Walmart, but I wanted exercise, so I just took the next left hand turn into a neighborhood ditch and started walking the street.  Ended up on Bresnahan, which led to Bandera, which led to the only place I have found that sells the American Spirit turquoise pouch organic tobacco.  What luck, I had money too.  I went in the tobacco shop but they were out of  my smokes.  

        Since I bought a pouch there, or I thought was there, when I first got to San Antonio, I thought maybe it was a different smoke shop, like, up at the next light, Prue Road.  Well, right next to the smoke shop was a place with a green cross.  EVERY SINGLE dispensary in Modesto has that green cross.  WTF, I thought.  I walked in the place wondering if they sold any tobacco.  Lo and and behold, it's a weed dispensary. 

 

THEY SELL WEED IN SAN ANTONIO TEXAS!  I thought weed was illegal here!  WTF????  IT'S A WEED DISPENSARY IN MY HOMETOWN!

        I don't know the loophole they are using.  The dude tried to explain it, but somehow they get away with selling weed and dabs!  It seemed like a big dream.  It was like I was back home in California.  

        When I first walked in the two dudes working complimented my shirt.  I told them I had some for sale.  I was asked how much and I told him, "I don't know.  I've been giving most away."  I even told him I had paid five hundred for 34 shirts, $12 cost per shirt.  He said he couldn't today because he only had ten and he would want to give me twenty five for it.  Which is way more than fair, in my eyes.  That guy passed the test.  

         Anyway, I couldn't believe it at first.  It was all a bit surreal for me.  After complimenting my shirt I immediately offered my blog and told them I was a journalist long distance walker and had been all over the country.  They seemed really interested.  I set my wrist weights and backpack down on their counter and unloaded The Note From the Rich to them.  

        Then I noticed the dab bar. 

 

"Wait, I can get hit a dab of weed right here in the store for only five bucks?!"  LOAD IT UP!  I got like four or five GOOD rips off their dab pipe right there in the friggin' store!  After about five or six minutes of coughing up my lungs I tried to go into other of my scripts, but in the end I was too high to remember it all and I cut myself off.  Time and a place, and they had my blog.  They even let me take pictures!  As soon as I left the place I was calling my wife to tell her the good news.  Welcome back to San Antonio, Victor Antonio!  

3:44pm  Wax and Danny are the cool guys from the weed store.    

        After getting soooo high I walked to the grocery store to try my luck with coffee.  Not only did I find some Nicaraguan dark roast supremo ground with attached coupon for only $6.47, I also bought a coffee pour-through($5) and filters($2)!  A Melitta brewing cone.  I also bought a load of good Brioche bread($4).  I spent $18.  

        

        So now I have weed, money and I have enough tobacco to last me a couple of days.  

        I walked Wickersham all the way home.  

 

        5:05pm  I am walking up on Coke Stevenson Middle School, where I went.  I spent $18 at HEB.  I got four items.  Some coffee, a brew cone, a loaf of bread and some coffee filters.  I will have real coffee tomorrow morning.
