Last Three Days

Are a general blur. Mostly smoked and played Uncharted Waters: New Horizons. Fun game, and I got Joe Addicted.

Work is interesting. The cert stuff is sucking balls, no sign of raises, and one-on-one meetings to come soon.

This weekend will be interesting. There is a show with the Ruckus. I'll probably go record shopping after work. Probably play magic. Hmmm...

I'm really tired... Sucks. Oh well. Red bull!

24 is the new 28

Fun fact of the day: In the hood O's come in 24g but cost 150.

So Kelly hits me up and wants another half of the mids. I am like, sure whatever, but I will need to pick up again. I also tell her it is a tad more. I get 90 for the half. And there was almost none left. (still not sure how I smoked that much, damn) Kelly agrees to ride with me.

Oh, and Jeremy is cool as hell. We get there, and he has a blunt ready to go. Again, we just had to hand him the money, and his man went out and got it. There was a long as wait before he finally left. But, the first guy he was getting it from had a bag that seemed short on sight, so the guy passed on it. So bummer, no weed.

But wait, on his way back he found another dude with a bag. He grabbed that and brought it back. Seemed like another fine O of mids. So, this builds my trust with these guys a lot. They know enough to watch for short bags, they have multiple contacts, and they do all the footwork. It just seems too good to be true. But hey, I will take what I can get.

Joe came over and smoked with me. Cool stuff. Drinking some of that orange drink. Still nasty as fuck. Eww.

Oh, also, again, this O was exactly 24g. Again, O's in the hood apparently are only 24g, contain random amounts of seeds-per-nug, but only cost $150/o. I'll take what I can get.

My new mp3 player

So it took me 50 bucks, and 2.5 hours of my time, but I finally got it. I picked up a 30gb zune off of a guy on craigslist (and apparently he got it from boting club live).

The downside I found out is that the zune does not work with Linux or Win2k. At all. No way. Gay. So I had to reconfigure my XP machine. The zune software wanted everything to be up to date, so I did. That took for fucking ever. Then I transferred 20gb of music.

In the last three days I have rediscovered a lot of cool music I had forgotten about. Once I get the hang of transfering stuff, I'll be good. Probably transfer at work off a usb stick.

On a side note, I have rediscovered the rapper Benifit. I love his shit, but last I looked he hadn't ever made anything since, and seemed like he was focusing his life on creating a career. Probably not the best rapper, but I still love some of his music.

Yesterday was mostly dedicated to setting up this music stuff. I also played a few games down at Dee's. Eventually yesterday evening James calls me and asked about parties that night, I tell him of two I know (one big, one chill). He says he would like to join after work. Cool whatever.

Then, it turns into that we have to wait for George. Then George doesn't come till like 11:45. I pissed I had to wait so long. And then to top it all off, George started questioning the parties quality. I told him to fuck off. Cause honestly, if he was hesitant, he shouldn't have held us up. I was pissed that I waited that long for someone to say "nah, it's not what I'm in too."

So James and George follow me to the party. The place was packed and uncomfortable. George and James immediately went home, I went to my co-worker's party.

My co-workers party was chill, but I didn't do much. Eventually I smoked, and met two possible new friends/contacts/customers. I love parties for that reason. Also, I have loved "omg, that isn't a cig, it is weed!" always love it.

Stuff and things

Whatever, not all titles can rock.

Wednesday, chill.

Thursday, AWKWARD. Sara wants to come over after work, I say I rather go play magic, she says she'll watch. Fuck it. We finally head out the door around 8:15. We pick up Chris and head to Dee's. We play a game or two and then head back home. At home Chris wants to dip back to his place. I take him back. The problem being, this entire night Sara was on the phone having a very obnoxious conversation. Her laughing was very annoying and loud. She also laughed at inappropriate times. Arg, I couldn't stand her. I told her to leave when I took Chris home.

The rest of that night I spent working on my linux machine and transferring files.

Sub-plot A:
Thursday also marked the day my MP3 player died. I found that it no longer noticed/accepted that the power cord was plugged in, thus it no longer charged. I tried many times and was ultimately unsuccessful. This is when I knew I had to find a replacement.

My breaks at work that day were dedicated to searching craigslist for ipod postings. I found a few hopeful ipod and zune postings. I sent inquiries and waited for replies. Most came back as either being damaged in some terrible way, or the price being way too high. I did however find a $60 30gb zune. That should do the trick. I currently working on setting up a time. He is not the best at making contact. I will call him again tomorrow.

Today I also spent a decent amount of time looking for sources of used mp3 players. I was unsuccessful in this as well. I also found that a new ipod 120gb is 225. I will buy this tomorrow if nothing else pans out.

Sub-plot B:

The drug story. Thursday I sold 17.5g of shrooms for 125 to Kelly. I also began the search for cheap o's. Kelly hit me up today for a dub bag of cheap weed. I told her about my situation (robbed and shit). I then called KO and Jeremy. KO didn't answer, and the second call someone else answered. I told them to take a note, but never heard back.

Jeremy however came through with an o for 150. Sweet. I asked Kelly to come along for the ride (as part of the weed was for her). She agreed. I arranged it so I could do the deal at Jeremy's place, as I am untrusting of any of his friends. Kelly is the same.

We finally get to his place. He says I need to give this guy the money and he will run and get it. I am like "hold up, I have to see it first." Jeremy assures me that it is totally legit and that it is good quality. Jeremy assures me that I can at least trust him on it. I take his word for it. It takes a while, and Jeremy ends up riding with his friend.

They come back with the weed and it instantly looks like flame for the price. It was packaged in qo bags. I thanked Jeremy and we headed off. Kelly bought 3.5g for 20. Gave them to her moms actually.

Later in the night I then weighed out the contents of all the bags. It came to roughly 6g/bag. So not 7g. I was shorted 4g, but it is fine, as this stuff is still great quality. For 150/o, that comes to 6.25/g. Pretty good, but I oversold to kelly. So now my price is 6.33/g . Still a fine price(comparatively I pay 11.25/g for the stuff I sell for 50/8). I feel much better smoking ~6.50/g weed rather than my well selling weed. It is like I am getting a 7.6+g bag for 50. That is tight. Now that I think about it, I don't know why I just did half the math I did.

On a side note, it seems that the easiest way to find cheap weed is through black people. At the same time, it seems this is the only kind of weed the deal in. This is both good and bad. It is nice that they always seem to be able to find you an O for 150 or less. However, this O will very in quality by quite a bit, AND it is always shady trying to have to deal with them (no racist). Honestly, every time I try to deal with them it feels like the situation is overly shady and that it could go poorly any second. For this reason I try and keep these purchases to a minimum and in addition, I try and not sell this weed as I would rather smoke it.

On the same subject, this is half the reason that I got pissed off when my weed was stolen. I was completely out of actual bud to sell, so all I had on me was my smoking weed. I also had a good amount, definitely more than a half, and likely around 21g or so. So this was weed that I could have smoked for a while. Instead, not only do I have to buy more of it and I am out the money, but I also have to go through the shady process of the actual purchase. Balls. Oh well, I had Kelly with me, and like I said, this shit is fire for the price.

Sub-plot C:

The George Story. So, we had this idea floating around for a while now of getting shirts with our friend George's face on them. It was really cool. Well we made the image, and got a quote for the shirt, but never actually made them.

This weekend my roommate put his foot down and said, "Let's make these t-shirts this week." And I said sure.

So today me and him go down and actually submit the final design. We end up ordering 33 shirts. We should have a few spares. George gets 2 free ones, James is getting 3 for himself, and I am getting 3 for myself. Each George, James, and Me are all getting a special red one (to be included in our previously amounts). It will be pimp.

They should be done this coming Friday, and we plan to host a party to honor them, in the next 2-3 weeks. We will have to slyly invite a bunch of people without George noticing or finding out. It will be cool.

Tonight, to top it off, George was in James' room with James, and George happened upon the sheet of names and shirt sizes that James had written down to calculate our order. George asked what it was and James refused to tell him. This pissed George off and he stormed out. James was both pleased that he kept the secret, and sad that he had to offend George. But it will work out.

I think that is nearly it for tonight. Big update, I will try and keep them more frequent and shorter.

Late update

Almost got in the habit of not posting, but I need to post.

Monday/Tuesday I was the only on second shift. Kinda sucked.

Wednesday was average. Thursday was interesting. I hung out with Sara and sold some more shrooms. I then played Cube at Chris' (with wes and jimmy and my roommate and such). Was fun. I also got Snoop Dogg - Doggy Style on vinyl for around $18 after work from the record store.

Friday was interesting. Got some things accomplished. Bought the 5 season of Aqua Teen Hunger Force and a copy of Fallout 3. Should be fun.

Friday night was also the party. Josh came in from out of town. Kelly had to work. Sidney was sick. The booze were more controlled. We bought a handle of Tequila and Parrot Bay. Then we got a fifth of grey goose. We also got two 30 packs of beer. Two handles of Gem Clear. A bunch of Koolaid and some chips. The first two handles I would claim even without the party. The grey goose was for me and Joe. The Gem Clear and Beer totally around 90 dollars. (gem clear is 30 something a handle).

The crowd that showed up was a bit different. A lot less of my friends. Lot of Max's friends. Jimmy and his friends showed up (Jirill, Victor, Abby, and Griffith). I didn't get too trashed. The music was a combo of me playing on turn tables and Max's dance playlist. The crowd was so diverse that it was hard to play the right music.

However, there was some trouble at the party too. A decent amount of shady individuals showed up. One by the name of Mario. Jimmy pulled me aside and told me about how at Jimmy's last party Mario stole over 600 from one of his roommates. At this point I alert the other hosts to keep an eye out for Mario. Jimmy also requested I get a picture of his face.

I find Mario outside smoking and chilling with a few others. I strike up conversation.
Me: Yo, what's up, you still seem familiar, where'd you go to school?
Mario: oh, something something something
Me: Hmmm... I didn't go to that school, well who'd you know at the party?
Mario: oh, I knew Joe
Me: Oh, that's cool. I like Joe. How's it been going?
Mario: Oh, pretty good pretty good.
Me: That's cool. Hey can I get a picture with you?
Mario: Sure

then we start posing. I can't keep the camera steady, and then Victor steps in and takes a great one. The story is told much better in person. (oh, and after the fact I found out Joe obviously has no idea who this guy is)

We keep watch and nothing really happens. Eventually shit dies down and people catch a little sleep. We wake up. In the end the party netted about $95. Which covers most of the booze consumed (we still have a handle of gem clear, but some other stuff was drank). Unfortunately I found out my weed stash had been jacked. Luckily it was only shitty weed that totally about $150 (with the small amount of shrooms I had too). :(

Saturday was chill. Me and Josh and Armoni went to a Flea Market outside of town. I picked up some Genesis games and Josh picked up some poster type items. We then had lunch with Kelly and came home. I then hung out with Jimmy for a bit and came home later on. Jimmy and his friends were really impressed by the picture. Once I was home I didn't do much else. I was really tired.

Joe came over and said his friend was bringing over an O for 320. I got it, it seemed ok. Maybe a little bit of seeds, but the bud was alright and at least equal to the other stuff. After I paid I broke some up and smoked a joint with Joe. Weed is weed, it smoked fine and broken up it looked fine. HOWEVER, this morning I go to weigh it (should have done this last night, or with his other Os...) and found out it only weighs out to 14g! Whatever, I'm pissed. I txted joe but haven't heard back. He is probably asleep.

I will talk to Joe tonight about this. Joe saw the bag that I paid for. Joe was the one that vouched for the guy. If nothing else Joe will likely feel bad and want to make up the difference to me some how. Well actually I see only a few things that could happen:

1.) Joe apologizes, calls up his guy, his guy apologizes and says he picked up the wrong bag and makes up the difference some how.
2.) Joe apologizes, calls up his guy, his guy apologizes but says that is the price. Guy is willing to do a refund, but not an O.
3.) Joe apologizes, calls up his guy, his guy defends his actions and says tuff shit. Joe feels bad and makes up the difference some how.
4.) Joe apologizes, calls up his guy, his guy defends his actions and says tuff shit. Joe apologizes again, but also says there is nothing he can do.

Obviously you can see how each has it's advantages. I would deal again with the guy if option 1 (or maybe 2) happened. I will be greatly disappointed if 4 happens. If 2, 3, or 4 happen I will probably smoke a lot less weed (until I find KO to get some regs/schwag).

Ugh. I just word back from Joe. He is at a brunch. I messaged him what happened and am waiting for a response.

-=-=-=-

Next day. Strange shit. I am really half retarded. My scale was off by almost half. Not sure how long, but it can't be much more than a day. But who knows. Oh well, live and learn.

Random Thought #1: The Begining

Create an add-on/script for LL that would flag all users for their specific political views. Or, alternatively, create a database of LLers and their opinions on topics. Manually register these in by hand. Create a web interface for this date. Create an LL script that can query this database and based on the query generate the flags on the posts.

At first I was thinking of doing this by hand with FoxLinks and highlighting users based on their stance on 9/11, but then the idea grew. The initial LL post that made me think about it was this.

I would have to figure out how I would want to structure the database. I guess I could just use sql. For the hosting... hmmm... I could dick around with creating a linux server that could house this. I could also use it to test other web applications. Web coding seems to be where it's at. So, I would need to learn sql and javascript for the greasemonkey script. Maybe some really basic cgi or php to interface with the sql. Just something really basic that can fill in the shit... and I guess query the shit... Maybe... Or I could use it as a secret database, but it wouldn't be secret.

Also, I would then have to figure out if I wanted to release it to LL. If I did, it would sure create a shit ton of drama, but perhaps I would also become famous for at least a little bit, and my name would probably be permanently archived in some form. It will be worth it.

[/random thought]

The Beginning, because you have to start somewhere. But I hope most of the titles follow that layout, and the first of everything always has to be a little different.

Random thoughts won't follow normal posts. They will just be little asides from my daily adventures. They will likely be my random opinions of something at the time. A step away from sitcom life. Ha, that is for another random thought.

Weekend 2-5-09

Stats: Dave 50/8th. Jackson 90/qo/7.1g. Joe 25/1.8g.

Thursday, average and fun.

Roommate goes to Dee's around 5pm before I get off work. I get off work at like 6:45. Someone asked for a dime bag of regs. He ended up not needed it at the last minute.

I travel to dee's. On the way there I call Hayse and let him know I wasn't able to give him a ride. He sounds like he will just stay home in that case. I then arrive at Dee's. Right when I get there, roommate leaves. We decided to meet up at home and go to the union.

We get home and I get a call from Hayse saying he is now at Dee's. I tell him that we are going to the union. He said he would meet us there. Me and my roommate get to the basement of the unit to find no one there. Then Hayse shows up.

We decide to play Magic at my place. We all head back home, but me and my roommate made a detour to get ice cream. Hayse gets to our place first. He calls wondering where to are, and we bust out laughing.

I also found out that Kelly broke up with her boyfriend. Later that night (like 4am) Kelly textes me and lot and we discuss it. I encourage her that it was a good idea.

Friday

I hang out a lot, and go record shoping. I found Chinese copies of Abby Road, a Jefferson Airplane album, and some album featuring "Money, that's what I want". Shit was off the hook. Friday as a whole was very mellow.

I ended up hanging with Joe and Kelly for a bit. I did some other stuff too... Smoked a lot of weed and passed out at midnight.

Saturday

Wake up at 10am. Chill till about 11am. Roll a few spliffs and head out to Dee's. Chill there for a bit and then go record shopping. Pick up a ton of 7". Come back and listen to a bunch.

Kelly comes over and we chill till the party. We go to the party and it was fun. It just wasn't as fun as the other parties. There were a shit ton of people though. I heard an estimate of 300. Sounds like a lot. I smoked a good number of spliffs.

Developement & Minor Leson

Do you deal with shady nigs?

It is always a good question to ask yourself when dealing with drugs. Shady nigs can occasionally good customers for those looking for anyone they can get. But shady nigs come with a lot of risk.

First off, they're shady nigs. Basically, you can never trust them, ever. They say they going to be somewhere? Maybe. They say they going to buy some off you? Maybe. You can never quite tell what they are going to do. At any minute they could decide to turn on you and just rob you of whatever they can. Because, well, they are shady nigs.

Secondly, you usually have to drive to them. Often they don't have a cell phone, rarely do they have transportation. Because you have to drive to them, this means you have to go to their shitty ass neighborhood. These neighborhoods suck because you often aren't familiar with anything about it. Not the stores, not the streets, and especially not the people. This brings me to my third and probably final point.

Shady nigs always travel in groups. And they almost certainly have more people with them then you do. Mostly because you had to travel alone to come and meet them. The neighbor they live in makes it feel like you could get robbed or jacked at any moment.

So basically they are untrustworthy, unreliable, and they travel in numbers. Shady nigs are almost always in control of the situation. They simply have more in their favor. They might deal with you for a bit. But, the longer you deal with shady nigs, the more likely you are to get robbed. So you always have to ask yourself "do I want to deal with/to shady nigs?"

I am still asking myself that. I can't figure out in my mind how to stack the odds in my favor when dealing with shady nigs. Best I can think of is open parking lot, they hand me stuff first. But again, they could bring the upper advantage if they have a gun... I would feel safest doing the deal in Jeremy's house.

I still need to call Jeremy again and see what's up.

Last night KO called me. He said that he had some dro that he was trying to sell. He wanted way too much for it (215 a half o?!). I also asked how well he knew Tony. He said that he only knew Tony through Jeremy. KO said that he wouldn't pull the same shit Tony did, and KO seemed like he wanted to prove that he wasn't a shady nig. KO said he still might have someone interested in that half O of shrooms. I told KO I would call him back tonight, around 7pm.

Joe bought another 8th at 50. Probably sell more to dudes this weekend. Will need another O or two soon. Probably work with Jimmy and Joe on that. Joe said his guy almost has all the weed soon and will be re-upping soon. I want to get an O of fire, and try to keep Os of fire.

Also, Max posted the party to Facebook. That should go well.

I am trying to figure out what I want to do this weekend. At some point I want to do shrooms, but I am not sure when. There is a party at Jimmy's place this Saturday night. I can sleep up until the party, take the shrooms, and then sleep at 6am-11am... Or I could take some shrooms during the day, and go at the end of the trip. Or party sober (eewwwwww). Hmmm... Still figuring shit out.

This weekend came really soon. It is cold in the living room. I wonder why.

It has been posted

The party is now part of Facebook.

Yesterday was chill. Work went well. After work blazed with Joe. Watched Zim. Played magic. We made and ate lots of food.

I don't think I have done an expense report recently.

I got that O from KO for 130, plus a little gas. I got 2 Os from Joe's friend for 630. Half an O ($155) got stolen by that nigga tony. Sold an 8th to Joe for 50. Sold another gram for 20. Sold half an O of shrooms to Dave for 100. Still have 3 half Os of shrooms. Will probably keep one for myself and sell 1, and sell a gramed out one.

Today will be interesting. I am giving a co-worker a ride to the bank, and in exchange he is getting me lunch. Cool stuff I suppose.

The weekend seems to be coming fast, but it should be chill.

This title is not good enough

I thought of a lot of titles that would have suited this post well, but this post would not have been worthy of that title.

Fucking niggas. I went to Jimmy's house today after I did some dishes. I showed him the O of the weed. He seemed mildly interested in getting the HP or doing more business with the new mystery man. Jimmy mentioned that he was waiting on word from this other dude on a QP.

We were just chillin around and Jimmy is texting this new dude and looking for info. He's waiting to hear back where he needs to meet the dude. Abby rolled a blunt. I forget if we found out before or after we smoked the blunt.

Jimmy got a text basically saying:

[dude] got robbed at gun point. niggas. stole his money and his stash.


Shit's fuck'd. Why does shit like that gotta happen? Damn niggas. Fuckin shit up.

Oh well. I also got my new pieces in the mail today. I swirly bubbler and a sherlock bowl. I smoked the sherlock with the new weed, and it got me high.

Not sure what the following week will bring.

Reverse Racism

Well, the black people started out cool on Friday.

I chilled and got things done, then I went over and hung out with Josh's brother Jeremy. Jeremy had over two of his friends, KO and Tony (and maybe one more). KO said that he could get me cheap Os of regs. Tony said he would be interested in buying half o's of weed. KO also said he probably knew of people that could buy my shrooms.

After smoking some weed with them and listening to some music, I left. I chilled at my place for a while and accomplished some more. Then I went to Cowboy Monkey and watched DJ Moses and Duckman rap live. Good show. Also met up with Monkey, Merik, and Leaf. Rolled back with them to their crib, and reconciled the past. Chilled there for the rest of the night and had a blast.

Saturday I got other random stuff accomplished. I also met up KO and bought an O of regs off of him for 130. The whole time the deal felt sketchy as fuck. I didn't like the situation. KO had big talks of selling the shrooms I had, but I never heard back from him. I wasn't really disappointed that I didn't hear back.

I sold half an O of shrooms to Dave.

Later that day I did some other stuff, and then eventually bought another 2 Os of some stuff off of Joe's friend Armilo (I think that was his name). It totaled 630. The stuff was not top notch, and was probably just barely dro. Also, the bags contained some shake/where leafy.

The night ended dully with Isaac coming over and us watching TV. Could have been worse.

Yesterday started off OK, but then turned pretty shitty. I called up Tony, and he said he would buy a gram to start off with. I bring him 1.2g for 20. He seemed ok with it. He calls me around 7:30pm and said he liked it. I called him back around 9. He asked for a half O. I asked if he could meet me. He said he would try to find a ride. I wait till about 10:30 and call him back. He still didn't have a ride. I agree to meet him (as I was kinda also wanting to buy some food). I get to his place and the whole thing feels sketchy. I should have left. Some car pulls up behind me, blocking me in. I feel uneasy, they move and re-park elsewhere. I reposition my car closer to Tony's place. Tony comes out, gets in, looks at the weed, says "is this the same stuff?" "yeah" "man, is this mids or dro?" and then he runs out of the car with the weed. Fucker robbed me of half an o. My own mistake, and doesn't cost me too much, but I was pissed.

I've had it with black people. I can't trust them. At least with drugs. Shit is too sketchy. I realize I have been taking a lot of risks that have luckily paid off. These last couple have not so well. I need to start playing shit smart.

Last night ended with Joe coming over and watching Invader Zim. That was fun.

Armilo wants to get rid of 8 more Os of his stuff. I got to get with Jimmy and see what he wants. I don't think these Os are worth it, but maybe.

Shit could be worse, and I have weed, so why be sad? Cut losses and look to the future.
