Saturday December 6, 2008

                    I just switched out tapes.  I'm a little hungry.

     2:50pm  David and I just went for a walk with a couple long trim joints. We walked and smoked them. We went to the Gypsy Den and David bought us some yummy Chai tea. We came back home. I am considering leaving the Isaiah house today. I am doing my laundry right now, so when that's done I'm leaving. I'll go squat in town. I don't know. I'm going to do a little typing while my clothes are washing.

     5:20pm  I just got on the 55 going to the armory. I finally talked to Dwight. I told him, "I don't mean to assume. I know I just showed up here again last night. I don't want to stay where I don't belong or be a burden in any way." I don't think Dwight and Leia realize the importance of what I'm doing. I thought they would be happy to support my cause. Earlier I had asked Dwight, "Would it be inappropriate for me to type my stuff up here?" He told me no. But, that comment about washing my penis and hitting the road was a pretty blatant sign to leave. When I found him I told him, "I don't want to assume anything and just want to clarify things." He told me, "You can't stay here, Victor." Everybody is at the armory. The place where the homeless crash. They're feeding dinner at six. Oh yeah, and I kind of hit David up for his stick and he was a bit undecided about it. I want his stick, bad. It's heavy, but I miss the momentum you get with a heavy stick. Plus, it's weight-training. Anyway, I'm catching the 55 to the armory right now. I'm not sure where it is. I'll ask around. Warner.

     5:46pm  I just came to the armory where they're feeding at six. I just got 86'ed from the house, on good terms. I'll find another place to crash tonight. I'll find me some squatters.

                   I rode the bus to Main Street and Warner.

     6:13pm  I am standing in line at the armory place waiting to eat. Oh yeah, I talked to David too. Oh yeah, I was able to get my pictures off my camera with David's laptop. My update is coming along. I talked to him about his walking stick too.

     6:25pm  I am bailing on the armory shit. We'll have to wait half an hour more after we get inside. It's Friday night. There’s kids all over the place downtown. I'm going back there and tell my story. Duty calls.

                   I don't need to eat at the armory. I can score at any taqueria in town.

     7:13pm  The greedy asses at La Casuela told me no.

     7:30pm  I just met Johnny Citizen. He gave me his card. It says Johhny Citizen Hosts the Orange County Citizens Ball. It's an open-mic thing. I asked him how much time would I get on stage and he told me whatever. He told me to hit him up on MySpace and he would arrange something for me.

     7:47pm  I'm going to try and hit up Real Mexican Food. Let's see what they tell me here.

     7:48pm  The greedy asses here won't give me food. Nobody wants world peace!

     8:29pm  The greedy asses at Perico won't give me any food. Todo el mundo recibe credito!

                   Panaderia y Tacos. Let me try my luck here.

     9:03pm  The guy told me no. Screw this place. He wouldn't even stop washing dishes to talk to me. He just shook his head no.

                     Dude and other dude praying.

     11:39pm  I had a pretty good night tonight out on the streets. I had some really good presentations with people. I'm still hungry though. Right now my pal David showed up. He's going to smoke me out and then we're going to the Gypsy Den and then somewhere to get me something to eat.

     2:03am  I'm going to sleep. I wandered off looking for the Jack in the Box. See, I had stopped and told this homeless couple my story. I asked them if they knew about a place to squat and they told me some people crash in the parking garage over by the Jack in the Box. Rod and Iris. Iris is a beautiful 48 year old black princess. She used to model, I think she told me. Rod's a white dude Jewish guy totally fixated with money. They push around two shopping carts full of their unnecessary things. Iris and I talked a lot. I'm going to sleep.

Next day..
