This article makes me sound pretty awesome.

I'm cramming into a van with 10 people and heading north this weekend!

Be back monday!

See you in seattle or portland?

Even though it's raining today, this week has felt like one of the greatest.
Within this week I have-
Made caramelized bacon cupcakes for my roomate's birthday.
Bought the most amazing bicycle.
Constructed a slingshot.
Honed deadly slingshot target skills.
Got a free doughnut from some guy in a van.
Bought three boxes of strike anywhere matches and learned to light them off my teeth.
Got an SF library card.
Received a friendly anonymous note on my bicycle.
Checked out the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack and listened to 'Stayin Alive' over and over and over.

I just bought the most beautiful new bike. My heart flutters every time I look at it.

Psssst

I miss you guys!

I have a room but no job. Days are sunny. Life's ok.

Hello,

My name is Bobby ***** and Im a reporter with the Wall Street Journal. I recently read how you’re looking for a tree to build a house in and was curious about whether you’ve been successful at your efforts. I would love to chat about the issue for a possible story on your interesting choice in housing. When you get a chance give me a call at *** *** ****

This is the second reporter to contact me. This thing will totally happen.

hella!

Still in Oakland. I'm looking into a room, trying to find a job, & riding graffiti bikes all over yr face.

benevolent interenet stalking at the library makes me super paranoid of discovery

You guys, it's been like 75 degrees here all week. Good weather for riots...
A cop called me a hipster yesterday. What the devil?

STILL NEED A TREE

still rabidly pursuing tree house dreams. People in my physical proximity are becoming annoyed because all I talk about is building platforms and joists and lag screws and how AWESOME my tree house will be and on and on. I cant even sleep. I've found a couple carpenters willing to help me, & I'm slooooowly circling closer to finding a tree. When I build my tree house, I might die of happiness.

Guys, the bay area is fucking awesome. I really dont even know how to put it to you, cause it just kind of creeps along and then WHAM out of your quiet satisfaction you realise... San Francisco's crazy ass urine filled streets are BEAUTIFUL and all the crazies in berkeley are AWESOME and all the hyphy kids in oakland are MAGNIFICENT and no one looks askant at your rattail which is soooo looooong and everyone EVERYONE rides bikes and I wear shorts every day and life for me is free and mellow.
I have a library card.
The beer out here is good.
I'm a minor character in a play. I am a rabbit butoh dancer.
I had a dream that I got a tattoo of a dolphin wrapped in bacon. I might make this dream a reality.

Happy new year!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!
I just got the settlement from the accident last year, & I have a dream.
I want
to build
a tree house.
To live in.
In the bay area.

I have the resources & tenacity to do this, but.. I need a tree.
My brain is hurting itself trying to figure out how I can convince someone to let me build a beautiful arboreal abode on their property.
If ANYONE has ANY connections to property owners or crazy old hippies in berkeley, oakland, or SF, PLEASE let me know.
Jon Eckerle, I am looking at you especially.
my heart feels like it will explode. Not only would this provide me with a simplistic living space that I could build with my own hands, but I could reliably shape it to my needs, come and go as I please, build it out of mostly reconstituted materials, experiment with alternate uses for urban space, but.. I mean, I'd get to living in a freaking tree house! It would be amazing!

help advice encouragement please please please.

Thanks!
happy holidays

Love,
Cari

circus rides. Hell yes, I rode them.
