so i left town around the end of november and hitchhiked with this kid adam to colorado. i ended up stayin there for the holidays and dont quite remember them either. i ended up getting a dog, her name is Unique. She came from the family in colorado and they didnt want her anymore- she is awesome.After that, i hitchhiked alone to Tuscon Az with the dog- and hung out there for a few weeks..not remembering much of that either...i stayed pretty blacked out a week. i met this awesome chick kelli there, and she wanted to travel so i invited her to come along with me. 200miles later..i find out the chick is 15 years old...that scared the hell outa me. and then i found out her mom called her in as a runaway- so we got her a fake i.d and name- and everything actually worked out fine. We made it to LA in 2 days, one truck driver gave me and 100bucks each...got completely trashed in a hotel that nite. we made it to LA, and i stayed with maggie and her boyfriend shawn in venice. then i met these kids J and rosie and they were rubber trampin around the county in a van. thats when i met dougie. we had fun together- we "hooked" up on valentines day which was cute. around the end of february the van kids drove me and dougie to new orleans. on the way we stopped in mexico which was fun. i stayed in new orleans for like a month- i was working for private contractors, getting paid 100bucks a day to gut/clean/paint houses that were still all fucked up from katrina. mardi gras was cool...stayed pretty drunk there too. i got tired of being in new orleans so i woke up one morning and began to pack up my shit in our squat and dougie said he wanted to come with- so then we hitchiked to savannah georiga for st.pattys day and got adopted by some college kids, who fed us alcohal for like a week. then we hopped 5 trains to get back to maryland. we stayed here for like a week and then hopped another train up to philly cuz doug wanted to see some friends. we cam back to baltimore and dougie wanted to leave for nyc. i told him i didnt wanna go cuz i didnt wanna watch him get strung out. he said he would only be gone for a week- and a week turned into a month. just finally the other day after bullshittin me around for month- he finally told me he wasnt gonna come back here to meet me. fuckhead.

so yeah- now im here..being the guy on the couch and waiting to get back out on the road....
