Tuesday April 15, 2008

     6:57am  I'm up and at 'em. I crashed in this empty lot at the corner of Lakeshore Drive and US 441. I took lots of pictures of where I crashed last night.

     7:40am  The bus came. I'm on my way back to West Tech. Right before the bus came I took a picture of the intersection where the bus stop is at. I was actually able to scrape some resin while I waited. I smoked all of my weed yesterday. Going to West Tech to transfer to the 40 bus.

     8:02am  Blair hooked me up with a cigarette at West Tech.

     9:02am  Still riding on the bus going to West Palm Beach. I've got a two hour ride so to kill time I sewed my boots. The stitching I had done on the left side-zipper snapped when I put it on this morning.

     9:42am  We're almost there. We stopped at the airport.

                    It was awesome how that random way I walked on the scenic trail yesterday is going to end me up in West Palm Beach.

     9:56am  I am in downtown West Palm Beach. Clematis and Quadrille.

     10:03am  I just took a picture of Nancy M. Graham Centennial Square.

                     It's cool, the random park I found, not only are there bathrooms right outside, but the public library is here too. I'm going to get to check my email.

     10:45am  Dude, what a marvelous update I have to make! Right at the last minute of my email session, my friend Katt who lives in my mom's hood in San Antonio messaged me on MySpace:

                     Hell yeah! I'm going to manifest a sidewalk!

     12:19pm  That was Malik I took a picture of in front of the library. He loved my story. He's going to score me a nickel sack right now.

                     West Palm Beach, Florida

                     Reading Together

     12:56pm  I was out there eating the last of my cereal in front of the library. Leonard was nice enough to volunteer me some tune fish and crackers. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

     1:47pm  Greg hooked me up with a cigarette on Clematis Street. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

     1:57pm  I just walked Clematis to Rosemary and turned left. I'm aiming for the Publix. I'm going to buy a pouch of tobacco.

                   I smoked that dude who gave me crackers out and this other dude by the water. I took pictures. I smoked them out.

     2:02pm  See, anyone who says hi or smiles at me I offer my website to. This one guy from Katy, TX, he's a general contractor, his hat said, he told me he had just put in The Limited Too in I forgot what mall in San Antonio.

                   I'm on Rosemary Avenue now.

     2:18pm  paused at this fountain and smoked a cigarette. I did my stretches and stuff.

     2:47pm  Mario at the Domino's on Dixie is hooking me up with some pizza. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit.

                   That was awesome. I was just walking and I was real hungry. I saw a Domino's, oh, I'm going to go hit them up for mistakes! Sure enough, I asked the cool black dude and he hooked me up! He quickly turned around and grabbed a box for me saying, "The employees have been eating from this." Awesome. Welcome to West Palm Beach, Victor.

     3:06pm  I sat down and ate. I have three slices left for later on. Hopefully for the train ride. I'm going to walk to the train station and see how far I can get with fifteen bucks. The Domino's across the street from the Saint James Residence. The trolley stops here at Fern and Olive.

     3:16pm  I walked back to the library.

     3:32pm  I walked to in front of the library and changed my socks out. Put a fresh pair on. I'm going to walk to the train station.

     3:50pm  I walked to the train station.

     4:15pm  I changed my mind. I'm not going to ride a train. I'll stick around for a little bit. This town's treated me alright so far. I have to do my laundry too. I've got fifteen bucks and I don't want to spend it on bus fare. I can always hitchhike or walk.

                   I walked Clematis back to the library.

     4:20pm  I took a picture of the big globe sculpture in front of 61028 Clematis.

     5:40pm  The only hip kid I've seen in this town so far, Jesse, who's on his laptop at a table in front of the library. I told him I didn't want to interrupt whatever he was doing, but he said he didn't mind. I had eaten my two last slices of pizza and told him my story. He said he was staying at some hotel nearby and he'd let me crash there. I asked him if he could spare some floorspace and he said sure. I appreciate it, brother. Room 309 at the Lavernia Hotel. He said it was like eight blocks away. I'm going to walk around and tell somebody my story.

     7:00pm  Hell yeah, I just had a great presentation with the Public Safety guys. They came up to me and I started telling them my story. Right before I got to the marijuana part they started tripping about money. "Oh, people wouldn't be motivated to do anything without money." Right after I walked away from them I found a Snickers bar on the ground! Hell yeah. Peanutopolis. I touched it with my stick convinced it was an empty wrapper. It was brand new! That's a sign to start walking. I ate a Ramen that I bought at the Publix earlier.

     8:49pm  I just had a great presentation with Robbie and Paige. I took their picture.

     8:50pm  I got all stoned and was itching to tell my story bad. I asked like two or three people and they shut me down real quick. "No, no, no, no." They just kept walking. Man, nobody wants world peace. Then I walked up to this couple walking and they were totally into my story. I cut to the important part because they had to go catch a movie. Their eyes were locked on me and heard everything I said.

     8:56pm  Hehe, I walked up to this security guard and hit him up for my story. He told me no real quick and said, "We've been getting calls about you. Pretty much, you have to go." What do you mean I have to go? I'm just telling people my story. I'm not asking for money. I'm a professional. I got permission from one of the Public Safety guys earlier. Cops haven't told me shit. I'm still waiting a couple hours to call that guy who's going to let me crash in his hotel room.

     10:12pm  I hit Zacon up for my story. I took his picture in his red shirt. He let me bum a cigarette at the end. I appreciate it, brother.

                     I had a badass presentation with that Zacon dude. In the end he told me he really admired what I was doing. He said he was really glad there was people out there like me. I told him the Note From the Rich and everything. He loved it.

     10:27pm  Joshua at the City Place, this little mall here, he let me borrow his cellphone so I can call Jesse. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.

     10:39pm  I had an awesome presentation with Joshua. I took his picture and everything.

     10:53pm  Haha, see, the cops like me. I'm just exercising my freedoms. They didn't search me or nothing. I was busy telling Joshua my story then the cop walked up. Joshua told him, "He's not bothering me. He has a story and I want to hear it." That was awesome. I'm blowing minds here.

     11:29pm  I didn't tell you. I'm going to try and find a place to camp. I was able to call Jesse and he told me that he was going to stay up and party until like three in the morning. Screw that. I'm walking down Olive now away from downtown. I'm looking for woods.

     12:32am  I found my campspot about fifteen minutes ago. I'll take pictures in the morning. Alright, I'm going to go to sleep. It's late.

Next day..
