7:20am I just woke up in my cool squat up in the tree. I'm going to get to see the sunrise over Medical Center. This place is just beautiful. To the Victor go the spoils, hehe. It's just awesome up here. Lemme check my camera and see if I have any pictures left.
Nope, no pictures left. It would have been perfect if I did.
9:53am I've been hanging out by myself in my little club house all morning long. I rolled up my sleeping bag. I took my poncho off and changed out of my thermals. I was being nosey and looking through this guy's bag. There's a flashlight, there's a tape player, a book called How to Know God, and there's a wallet with credit cards and three dollars in cash(which I'm going to leave alone). I was looking through his backpack some more and guess what I found . . . a loaded pipe! I get to smoke! Thank you, Love.
I'm not going to take the money, so if this guy comes back and notices that his weed got smoked, hey, I didn't take his money. I'm going to get high and smoke a cigarette.
Oh yeah, I have two Honey Buns so I get breakfast too!
10:15am I am going to leave this guy a peace offering for the stuff I took. His pot and ate his food. I am leaving him three cigarettes and a pretty crystal. I forgot where I got it.
Man, I wish I would've had some pictures left. I really need to get me a digital camera. That would be awesome.
Today I'm going to walk to Bob's house and stash my backpack in his backyard. I'm wearing my Truth or Consequences tie-dye shirt. I'm going to go jump on the bus and see what happens. Oh yeah, I got to find a place to get an AIDS test. That's what I have to do.
10:42am Man, I just figured out the height of this platform. I just measured it without a measuring tape. I unraveled and dangled my scarf down. I know that my scarf is fifteen feet long. It's a big loop thirty feet in diameter. It's a border to a quilt. I dangled it down. Hold on, let me see exactly what it looks like. Okay, I am hanging it down just so where it's skimming the ground. The scarf is just a little bit longer than the platform is tall. Whatever is left I measured with my foot(since I wear size twelve shoes). One and a third feet taller than the platform. Subtract one and one third from fifteen and you have the height of this platform.
Man, I really miss this walk. It's so cool.
10:44am Damnit, they're going to build something close to here. They're clearing out land right close to my woods. Bastards.
10:45am I just walked down some random street, Scenic Sunset. All these dogs starting barking. I barked back at them.
11:07am I am at the bus stop at Spring Time and Spring Forest. I feel great. This is what I needed to be doing, walking. I always said I was going to go back to San Antonio and get back in shape. Babylon gave me cancer. Gave me an STD.
11:18am Oh yeah, I forgot. I'm on the 604.
11:39am I am at the hospital.
11:42am I just took a piss in the bathroom at the hospital. It stunk like shit and this other guy was in there taking a leak. When he finishes he walks by me and says, "Aww man, you smell that?" He all started bitching because it smelled like shit in the bathroom. He was all saying, "Someone open the door." I tell him, "What man, your shit don't stink?" He told me, "Oh no. It smells like roses from all the heroin and cocaine I do."
11:50am I just had a great session with this girl. I told her all my ideas. I had just been standing there by the elevator and she said, "You look good." I told her, "Hey, can I tell you what I'm doing?" I told this girl my whole plan and in the end when I asked her to do me the favors she said, "You know what? I doubt you and believe you at the same time."
11:59am I scored phat up on the sixth floor! I was worried because it was kind of close to lunch and there would probably be people in the nourishment room. Right when I walked in, this lady walked out. She told me hi and walked out. I walked in there and loaded up my pockets.
12:10pm Oh yeah, the whole reason I came to Medical Center was to ask where I could get a free AIDS test. I'll tell them, "I got a new girlfriend."
12:11pm I asked at the front desk where I can get a blood screening and they told me to go down the hall, past the chapel, A Elevators, go to the third floor and go in the lab. That's easy.
12:20pm I went to the lab on the third floor. They asked me, "What kind of test did you want again?" I told them, "Just a standard blood screening. I got a new girlfriend." They still didn't understand. I told them, "You know, like a blood test for diseases." They told me, "Oh, well to do that we would have to have a doctor's order unless you want to pay out of your own pocket." I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe that if people are worried they might have a disease that they would have to pay to find out. How evil is that? They told me to go to the MedExpress on the second floor and that maybe I'd be seen by a doctor there.
That's so dumb. In Arcata the doctor didn't charge me anything(10-23-03, 11:49am).
Okay, I'm at the ExpressMed. ExpressMed Clinic. "When you need a doctor, not an emergency room." Let's see how much they charge me.
12:27pm What a jip. I went to the ExpressMed Clinic. I asked this gay nurse dude at the counter, "Where can I get an STD test? If they are not free here, can you refer me to a place where I can get it free?" He had to think about it. Just then, this other dude who was there told me, "Health Department." He said it was somewhere downtown. Not today, though.
1:27pm Erica hooked me up with a transfer. I appreciate it, Erica.
1:47pm I just got to Travis Park. I'm going to buy me a hotdog.
1:48pm George here at the hotdog stand hooked me up with a chilidog for normal price.
1:50pm I bought me a hotdog and now I'm going to sit down and eat.
2:02pm I came to Travis Park and I'm going to get smoked out. Cool, kickass!
2:42pm Man, I just got smoked out under this bridge by those kids. Man, they wouldn't shut up. They wouldn't listen to me. They were all ignorant. Argh, why do I have to do this all on my own? Oh yeah, and their lazy asses are just walking around asking every person they pass, "Can I have a dollar?" I hate it that people actually give them money, since San Antonio is so generous. They're just using people. They're not giving anything back. They're a bunch of taker's.
2:48pm I just talked to this homeless dude with a beard that calls himself Santa. He is as ignorant as the kids.
2:56pm Oh yeah, I just remembered Elva. I'm going to go see if Elva is working.
3:05pm Oh yeah, I just remembered. The Pair of Dice Tattoo Parlor(5-2-03, 2:15pm). I gotta go update those guys.
Damnit, I can see the sign from here. They're not open.
3:27pm I walked up to the front of Travis Park, where the buses stop. I noticed a pretty girl looking at me. We made eye contact. Hey, I'm going to go tell her my story. I walked around and just unleashed on her. I looked at her for a minute and wondered, "Hmm, maybe she's a "chick."
3:40pm What was your name again? Jeremy just hooked me up with a couple things of cookies. I appreciate it, brother. Jeremy also had a suggestion to read the book Dude, Where's My Country by Michael Moore. I'll check that out.
Badass, and he gave me some cookies.
3:41pm I had seen some kid with a NOFX sticker and his backpack said punk on it. I told him my stuff. His name was Jeremy. I told him my shit and he offered me some cookies. I got his email address.
4:05pm Man, this sucks. I just realized that today is the 24th. Nothing is open. I was all looking for a place to get tested. I'm dumb.
4:26pm Oh yeah, I got off the bus at Williamsburg. I'm going to walk to the Shipley's donuts to see if those girls still work there and see if they'll hook me up.
It's Christmas Eve. They're closed. I'm going to walk over and see if Sam still lives at those apartments across the street.
5:35pm Sam was home. That's awesome. I've been here for half an hour or so. I told him my whole update. As much as I could. He's going to let me crash here tonight. I think he might let me stay for a bit, even. I told him I'd start working at West on the fifth. I don't know what will happen.
Sam's cool. He even offered, "Man, you want to take a shower?" He asked me if I had eaten today. Maybe he's going to cook for me. Sam cooks badass. He's a vegetarian. I missed Sam's cooking.
6:15pm Sam just prepared me some vegetables. He cooks good.
