Day 22
September 9thAs I looked at the map of the United States to plan my next few days, I realized that San Francisco is a looog way from Chicago. I stupidly thought I would have time to drive up the coast into Portland, spend a few nights there, and then zip over to Chicago by the 14th. I didn't realize that today was already the 9th and this ( Read more... )

Day 21
September 8thBefore leaving Kates, I cleaned up and dyed my moustache again. It's actually looking pretty good now. I'm typing this up on the front stoop at Mike's place in SF. I've known Mike for a while, back to the Superfuture days. He was my roommate before moving here last year, so it's been really cool to see what he's up to out here ( Read more... )

Day 20
September 7thWhile Kate was at work, I spent the morning chillin' on the couch with Hank. I took the boy for a walk and I did my laundry. I didn't realize, but I was actually down to one of my last clean shirts. Always forgetting something, of course I forgot to wash my pillowcase and a couple pairs of socks ( Read more... )

Day 19
September 6th

I woke up and enjoyed the view from my hotel room a little bit before checking out. Check-out time was at 12 and the drive to LA wasn't too far, so I took my time. My room was on the 18th floor and the view was cool, so I snapped a pic out the window before leaving.

Day 18
September 5thI set my alarm and woke up early today so I could call the mechanic about the car. I was able to find what appeared to be 2 very honest Honda mechanics in the area, both with excellent reviews. I honestly chose this one because it was across the street from a Panda Express, amongst other things. I figured I could at least walk ( Read more... )

Day 17
September 4th

Things would take a turn today. I think I mentioned at the end of my last entry that I hoped my car's AC was okay. Well I woke up this morning, and after checking the drinking laws in Vegas, I grabbed some ice and a chelada and was ready to hit the streets. I didn't realize the laws here were so wild west. You can staight up ( Read more... )

Day 16
September 3rd

I woke up in my car this morning in No Name, Colorado. It was a bit chilly in the morning and I didn't have the best sleep of my life, but it worked and wasn't sketchy. If I do that again, I really gotta remember to disarm my alarm before starting the car. I hope I didn't wake everybody else up this morning.

Day 15
September 2ndIt's September 2nd and I still feel a little high from how good everything felt last night. I had to check out of the hotel this morning. I double checked the checkout time and found a piece of paper saying it was at 12. That was cool, it gave me a much needed extra hour this morning. I knew I wanted to go to El Taco De Mexico ( Read more... )

Day 14
September 1stPizza Hut in Colorado is not as good as I remember. I'll leave that here for now. I'm about to call a cab to pick me up so I can meet Tyler and the gang for the Phish show tonight ( Read more... )

Day 13
August 31stToday was an interesting one. The rest of the gang departed from the campsite early, so I was flying solo all day with no agenda. I didn't know where I'd be sleeping tonight, and that's always sort of been an uncomfortable feeling for me. I realized that the campground we were at was a good hour away from where I needed to be for ( Read more... )
