day 17 - 1/17/24 - bell sprite

this one's in a bit of a panic and trying to alert people nearby however it can! it's glowing brightly and ringing its bell wildly. it seems like it thought i was injured and is trying to call for help! i was able to calm it down and communicate to it that i was not injured, but not without snapping a photo first!

Re: my 1/13/2023 Blog: I can’t save them, but I can buy them coats:   I bought the coats and took them out to Mac and friend.

Just drove 2 coats out to MAC. One was XXX size for his friend, who I didn’t meet.

But, I did meet Mike. Mac asked if Mike could use my address to get his mail. I said ok.

Mac said Mike is one of the only guys who won’t steal from him.

End of this part of the entry

Note:

1/22/2024

Mac and Mike are staying out in a strip mall parking lot in South Modesto. 

The night I drove out to deliver the coats, I could see maybe 8 other homeless people huddled up against a store wall across the parking lot. It was really cold.

The photos I included with this blog show Mac modeling the coat that I gave him. His coat came from a thrift store and cost $18.

When I arrived , he was wearing a pink girl’s coat. That’s all he had to wear.

He and Mike and I had a good conversation. I gave Mike about $10. I gave Mac enough to buy a faster phone charger plug than one that I previously gave him.

I learned that the phone I had given Mac money to buy had been stolen. He could play his games on that phone. Huge loss, but, taken in stride out there.

The coat that I bought for his friend was new and cost over $100. That’s the only way I knew of to obtain a XXX coat. I told the clerk at the store  where I bought the coat that I needed a coat for a homeless friend. He asked “Are you asking for a donation (of the coat?). I said no.

Why would he ask that? Why would he think that I would not pay for a coat for a homeless man?

I told him no, that I would pay. I told him that I was concerned that the coat would be stolen out there. I told him about Mac. He asked how long I’d known him? Me  “Since 2010” and that Mac became homeless in part because of drug addiction. We talked about drug addiction and how the gym can be the cure.

In the end , re: homelessness he said “We each take our own path”.

So, buying the coat for Mac’s homeless friend opened a pathway of discussion about homelessness in the clothing store. It became a community event.

i remember why i clipped this one, there was a challenge at the time that put the Rainmaker into turf war. and like, of the four ranked gimmicks to put into turf rules, i think clams might be better. there was a Shifty Station in S2 that used zones, which was all right because it was fairly massive, a tower doesn't work particularly well as we recognize it, but clams? don't those actually do damage and ink turf? do some special charge stuff? DOESN'T kill you after a while?

Daily Poem 1/17/24

Swinging from star to star Holding tight to quasars As I'm flung across the galaxy Perch for a moment above it all Secured by my asteroid belt And I see the planets like pinpricks Forming constellations of their own

You confuse me. Why do you still have your clothes at my place? You could have easily taken it with you before you left. Also why do you still have my jacket? If you were done wearing it for that day and I saw you multiple days after, you could have easily given it back to me like you did with my hoodie? We hung out with each other consecutively and yet you tell me the most you can go out is 1 or 2 days. Why do you tell me that and then be the first to text and call me after for two days since the last time we saw each other?

I’m being very patient. You just found out I like you like barely 3 weeks ago, so I know you prob need some time to take it all in. Think, process and assess. You mentioned that you had a crush on a girl before. Maybe internally you do like girls. No wonder whenever you’re drunk you just love kissing and cuddling female friends. Idk if you remember but at one point when you were drunk you cuddled with me too.

If I could turn back time, I would kiss you when you were super close to my face and neck. You know I like you yet you still make plans with me and call/text me. Maybe this is your subtle way in showing me that you’re interested too? Or a sign for me to step up my game? Idk but I am very invested in you. I just can’t give up yet. You caught my eye since October.

oh i have to know what’s new with TBD <3

WIP Wednesday 4/17/24 | TBD

Andrew, for the life of him, still doesn’t know why exactly he decided to become a professional Exy player. He goes through the reasons that it isn’t the worst thing in the world once again in his head.

He was paid ridiculously well which meant he never needed to think about money again.

He had the flexibility in his schedule to do whatever he wanted during the off season.

It’s not like Exy is hard.

He thinks for a few more minutes on what other reasons there might have been for signing to play this stupid sport professionally and comes up empty. He can admit that part of the reason he may not be able to think about positives is the constant interruption to his thought in the form of camera flashes.
