yo guys, whassup
I spent 23 hours in a bus
Let a guy in Atlanta borrow my phone to call his girlfriend after demanding that he not steal it. He'd gotten held up at gunpoint in Texas and all his money got stolen. I only knew he was being serious because he didn't initially start telling me his sob story until after the fact and issued it as more of a warning to me to never leave the bus terminal because you WILL die.
Got stuck in rush hour traffic in D.C.
Ate a lot of truck stop food
Some guy named Bob talked to me for like 5 hours about old computers and business and shit and looked at my drawings and told me I should start making a portfolio. His car was broken down in Virginia and he didn't live anywhere in particular. He gave me some potato chips.
Saw the cutest Asian man in the world playing Ms. PacMan at a bus station in Baltimore
Got exploited for being from Alabama and asked a million ridiculous questions like how they teach the Civil War in AL. It was only funny because they were being serious.
Then later spent about 2 1/2 hours riding around Manhattan at 3:30 in the morning and I vicariously got Marissa's boyfriend both into and out of a ticket. NYC cops. Gotta love the little shits. Who stops at yellow lights in New York City? Who stops at yellow lights anywhere?
Work just called me and wanted me to come in, but I'm in freaken' Jersey. I told them I'd come in if they sent me a rocketship.
This can get even better. Let's do it.
