THE FIRST POST
on tour.
we finally headed out on (fill in day we ended up leaving, I have no clue)
hot as hell on the way to oakland. scored a show in flagstaff so made a stop.
I was trying to get these guys to buy some t-shirts at the show and was being kinda flirty....untill one of them was like "blehhh you should blow these guys off and come party with us....we got a hotel room." so mega scuzz pissed me off and I asked bill to watch the merch and went to hide on the bus. parked in front of a friends house on a sevear tilt, so that this metal ridge in the side on the bus was digging into my back all night. got up, headed out to san fransico.
we arive in san fransico and set up to play in the park. people sit in the park and smoke joints there, so it was kind of nice to smoke a joint in semi-public without being scared. the crowed of hipster-ish kids that showed up was wierd. A little of the ol' to cool for school 'tude.big sun glasses smoking cigarettes in the park and drinking wine out of the bottle. it was wierd. the music played for a little while untill the cops came. cops were amazingly nice. they said "hey, do you think you could just turn the generator off and stop playing so we dn't get anymore complaints?" really nice, didn't give us any more crap.
we walked around for a while and drove over to oakland to visit our friend kit. the neighborhood was really not so great so we slept on the bus again.
there is more
I dont feel like writing it. things get more interesting as we head farther and farther north.
a city by city play by play continues
we have paused for the time being in portland
I am in love with portland
but I want to start moving again. meeehh
I've met alot of people, friends of dmitris that I have only heard about which is cool. I do feel kind of strange here every once in a while. I try to be social. the first day we were in portland I seriousely spent half of the day alone in the house of these girls who are friends with everyone on the bus, who used to live in tucson. I felt guilty being in a new city and wanting to just sit inside and work on some writing. I also felt like I was giving the impression to all these new people I was meeting that I was just unpleasently wierd. The past few days I have been having a hard time conversing with people. I am dreading having to carry on a conversation with someone that isnt dmitri or someone else on the bus. I kinda of wouldn't mind just being silent and standing next to dmitri (in an aloof sort of way, not in a submissive sort of way), It would be easier if I still smoked. I could just smoke and be silent and aloof, and I have almost been tempted a few times but I dont like the way it makes me feel anymore. but really, I wish I could replace it with another action that I could hide behind.
this one time, I was tired for two years.
the lexapro is looking more and more attractive everyday as the mind chatter is starting to upset me again.
all I want right now is some mac 'n chee and to be in my bed
