I spent last night on the streets.

Post by faninor »

In one of the 30 largest cities in the US.

I wasn't planning on it.

Weirdest/scariest/whatever moment: there are a lot of benches on the sidewalk that are like two benches that share one back. I walked past a bum who was on one of these benches, leaned over the back and looking down at the seat on the other side. I think there were drops of blood on the seat below his face.

I spent at least half of the night drinking caffeine at a gas station.

I feel really tired and dirty right now.

I'm going to go take a shower, and then I'm going to go to sleep.

Where were you Josh? What happened???
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Umm, I went to see Presidents of the United States of America in Portland and didn't realize I wouldn't be able to get back into the Greyhound station until 6:30 AM. The only time I've been to the Portland Greyhound before, I had a long layover from like 3 AM to 7:15 AM. I assumed that meant it would be open at random hours in the middle of the night.

The bum who walked past at the gas station also said that I had found a nice place to hide back in the corner of the gas station parking lot.

Does this mean I would make a good bum?

Can ya spare 50 cents?
