hey ho happy holiday
so guys, i'm once again back, and probably not for long. I'VE FINALLY STARTED TRAVELING! I'm homeless and jobless and fucking LOVING it. sorry i haven't been on much in the past year or so. i dont even know whats going on with anyone anymore. sorry. i always mean to keep in touch with all ya'll. honestly, you would be better if you read my Myspace... ug i hate saying that, but i have so many friends and connections on there its just more convienent. www.myspace.com/rel6igi6ous6 is my myspace if you wanna check it out. i'll try and get to LJ on my travels more often than i do, because i love all of you, but its hard when i only have so much time on a computer.
anyways, to summarize my travels so far. Left vegas, stayed the night in Kingman, AZ on our way to Phoenix. Met a crazy meth-head there who played guitar for us for about 4 hours. we had stayed up all night so we could get started early and because i didn't feel like sleeping. no meth involved for us (just a large ammount of coffee and a small dose of adderall). Arizona sucks for hitchhiking. eventually made it to Phoenix. hung out with alan and tanessa there and a cool kid who for some reason had a brooklyn accent to his voice even tho he'd never even been in or around there. drank lots of wine and wasted time. had fun, but wasn't really that great of a place.
then we left for Tucson. Tucson is an awesome place full of really cool peoples. went to the local anarchist info shop (www.dryriver.org), met tons of cool peoples at various parties (including a haunnakah party thrown by someone who isn't/wasn't ever jewish) and did acid while busking (playing music on the street for money), protesting (against violence against sex workers), and drawing. really a wonderful place that Tucson. but we eventually had to leave for albuquerque.
again a hard time finding a ride to our destination. but we got a free pizza, $13, and met some crazy truckers in Las Cruses, NM. we had to get a ride from corey's lover who was in the Albuquerque. almost got arrested on the way up (for drunk driving. long story short, i know my rights and the cop tried to violate those, so i pointed out that he has no right to search us or the car if he pulled us over for speeding... which we weren't anyways).
Albquerque was kinda dumb. lots of cool kids there, but the city was a shithole (or at least my opinion of it is such, apparently corey got really pissed off at me for thinking so.) nothing really to do except party and video games (at least thats what i found). i dunno. but spent a few days there. then christmas was coming so i made plans to come back to vegas for the holidays. plus corey wants to settle down for a couple months, so i need to make new plans and hopefully find a new travel partner. might be able to get my friend mitch to travel with me, but he might not because he might be takin care of his little bro.
if anyone here wants to go hitching/trainhopping or you have a car and just want to travel (and are willing to pay for most of the gas expenses or rely on the generosity of others to fill your gas tank because i'm near dead broke) let me know. i'll make it out to whereever you want to start and we can go for however long you want to go.
anyways i said i'd make it short and it wasn't (ha but do i ever keep my writings short if i have something to say?) but it was the condensed version. the real/long version takes about 40 min to say and still doesnt include everything.
but yeah i hope all of you are doing well. and i wish you happy holidays.
ps if you have a place i could stay at if i'm passing through, please let me know. i could always use such things (because most cities aren't allways so nice to the homeless and vagrants). or if you want me to come visit i can make plans. i know theres a few people i want to visit really badly (but i dont wanna name names, so you can just automatically assume it is you!)
alright, well, i'm out. take care everyone.
