this evening it was -30!
It is probally colder right now
So I have remembered a few things.. things like life sucks and thats just a fact, not a mindset.
but
we are still here eh?
I mean no matter what else, we are alive and can do and make whatever we want of ourselves and our lives..
I am now sure I am going to die( when I was young I could never understand that, and I seriously thought I was immortal)
seeing as that is a fact...how can I not live?
roll the dice again. If I get killed or hurt so be it, I was going to kill myself anyway, so living on is like an extra life.. I will go on.
anyway enough filler
I am homeless.
again.
But there is a huge difference...this time I have no wheels(portanle housing )
I NEED a change.. I am not sad about this nor do I seek sympathy, understand that I have a house, but the circumstances are very strange and I need to go somewhere else, preferably out of state..
It is strange how life comes full circle, and you can see clearer after the storm, and remeber things.
..so I wanted to go to Alaska and do one of those sweet 3-6 month contracts with a fishery but I havent heard back.
Sso it looks like plan B
Hitchhiking to S. Oregon where after meeting a friend I will decide if I shall go on to Cali or not..
I am scared though the world outside can be very mean to u, and its bloody cold to be hitchhiking.
So what I need is advice, thoughts..anything
Do you know of any opportunities?

From what you say, you should have plenty of opportunities present themselves, you have no expectations, ties, or agenda....see what comes up. You have the right mindset, so make what you will of life! But common scense with cold weather can keep you from freezing on the road....good luck.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.
It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.
I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

The cops busted the party I was at last night (the neighbors were complaining about the "marijuana smoke"). I had about 1/2 of a oz of fresh nugs and a digi on me, I ran outside with my best friend and hid the goods in the grill.
The cops were inside for like at least an hour, while we were outside, in -11 (at least) freezing cold temperature. I've never been more cold in my life.
Fuck the police, I'm moving to Canada.
(also - it was my friend's birthday and he got an MIP! gay shit!)

thanks Az, Cj.... hey Daba, what do you think is more dangerous hitchiking or picking up hitchhikers?
I pick up most, but it often depends on age.. Its kinda wierd when I was youngr(13-19~) it seemed like mostly hippies, stoners, and young people like me would pick me up. Now its like people in mini vanz..whats up wit that?
The only thing I am afraid of is the inner city when I am homeless..I had a bad experience in Portland. I camp in the woods and such. That why I gotta get to i-5 so I can go south..its cold out man 
any suggestions are appreciated dudes I am leaving soon..

Sorry, I can only answer that question (which is more dangerous...) from the biased standpoint. I never hitchhiked. But from what I can tell picking up hitchhikers is a gamble nonetheless, like every other action in life.
haha I picked up a dude in a minivan at Yosemite .
I don't pick up all hitchhikers though...
By the way, Godot never comes , just in case you didn't finish the reading.
