so i think you know.........sometimes (especially after the things that i've done, experienced, and am going through) some people would stop, slow down, look around and think....."wow.......this is fucking crazy........people shouldn't live this way.........."
i'm thinking that i think i might be either
A. strong
b. stubborn
c. demented
d. delusional
e. genius
f. a lunatic
last night i stopped by a house in which i use to hang out all the time when i had my own place up seaward.............it was just a skate down the road...........suffice to say the events that went on were incredible.........after obliterating our senses we decided that we wanted to make a fire and play music out on the beach..........except no one was willing to start it up.........so i went out there, set up some logs i found to sit on and another one to rest your feet, and a pyramid fire pit.......i meant to lightly pour some gasoline on top of it and went....."woops!"........next i lit my lighter and was instantaneously engulfed in a ball of fire..........my hair caught fire but i quickly got it out and fell back onto the sand and rocks behind me, laughing..........dude i was tanked...........then my hand really hurt from the flame and so i walked into the water to cool it off.........instead i just stayed out there in the water and soaked myself as i was talking to the ocean about how crazy i think i might be..........andy and richard came up and andy said "victor, we're really worried about you...."......i said "no man, it's alraight......i'm not hurt,....i'm fine" in a reassuring manner..........i lead them back up to the pit and we played the most heart felt music i've ever had the chance to be apart of.............since no one other was comming out to the beach and when the fire burned out i just left........i took off my soaked pants........drove to a spot and fell asleep............."maybe i'll laugh about it tomorrow...."
this morning i took a left turn during a yellow light and got clipped by a yukon trying also to beat the red........it was rad.......he BBBBAAAARREELY even slipped me...........so i just took off (cause i can't afford to get caught up on ANYTHING)......but he followed me.....i tried to shake him by parking suddenly into a lot.........yet he still came up behind me......as i was walking away the man came out and said "YOU HIT ME!....even though it was him that clipped me......(but i guess i should have waited)..............there was almost NO damage on either car but i can tell that he was upset so i was straight forward with him........"look man......we both ran yellows trying to beat the red, we barely even stroked each other........i just turned 20 years old and i'm homeless living out of my car with no license......if you want to take what little i've got over such a small accident well then you've got an awesome opportunity to ruin another person's life.....".......at this point i wasn't even trying to use the sympathy card......i was just simply telling him how it really is..........all he said was......."hmmmm/////it's not so bad....."...........after that i just walked off and he left me alone......
i lucked out i guess.......
changed the oil in my car......lost my mind thinking i lost my keys (they were in my pocket)........drove around listening to sonic youth and comets on fire.........felt bummed, then happy, then bummed, then i don't know...
it doesn't even feel like i'm shooting a film starting tomorrow through the weekend........i'm a producer and i don't even know if we are all systems go..........i've got to get the props and other shits today...........i also have to start shooting hobo street musicians as part of a cultural studies final assignment......i think i might go to hollywood blvd. to shoot some of that........also around santa barbara and ventura...........there's a lot of really good musicians out there.............it'll be tight......
