crack, hooters, pictures, oh my god

what an eventful weekend this has been. saturday i went to get gas and a homeless guy said he would pump it. i said ok and gave him a buck. once in my warm care i had this great idea "hey ed, lets take him with us to eat". ed was cool with it so i asked dennis if he was hungry. he said fuck yea! i told him to get in, i'd buy him dinner. once in the car we found out about his life story. it was sad and quite interesting. girlfriend just left him, diagnosed with schizophrenia at 18, in and out of institutions, homelessness, addicted to crack, you name it. once in the car dennis asks "where we goin'" and i reply "hooters". what better place to take a homeless man. i figured the stuck up waitresses would be fun for him to look at. dennis was so excited i thought he was going to explode. "i always wanted to go to hooters mothafuckas."

we walk through the door and it was like we were armed with thermal detonators. everybody, i mean every last waitress, jock, old man, manager, child, dropped their fork and stared. i really don't know why, they do not know dennis. what did they assume was so interesting? most people were not even close enough to smell him (he probably hasn't bathed in quite some time). the stares continued throughout the meal and i started acknowledging them with a "hello" or "this is dennis." people then quickly looked down.

after about an hour of watching dennis eat(devour), and listening to to tales of institutionalized sex and smoking crack we thought that it was definately worth our time to buy dennis dinner.

believe it or not, while most of the waitresses were staring, or giving distgusted looks, our waitress was awesome. she even put her arm around dennis and asked him how his food was. he was talking to her and spitting pieces of cheesburger and fries in her face and she didn't even flinch. i was amazed. she was completely unassuming and nice. maybe it was because she wanted ed. she hit on ed the whole time. she even asked him out, but poor ed has a girlfriend. i couldn't believe ed got asked out at hooters by our waitress while dennis was spitting cheeseburger all over her.

after the meal we dropped dennis off by some house. he asked us to take him to 12th street, but i told him that i was not taking him to buy crack and he was cool with that. it was an eventful night.

on sunday i saw oh my god again. what a fun show. i just love that band. i even went to see them at the loft or what ever the hell they call the back room now.

by the way, i am going through my new pictures quick so if you want one you better tell me soon. they are really hot, i am wearing a blue t-shirt and smiling!
