I Just Had A Carne Asada Burrito
written: 3rd October 2004, By Clay

Oi there
hows things wherever you are
tops i hope
things here in San Diego are just bonza
i just had a carne asada burrito from the best Mexican joint north of the
border, Valentino`s
so yeah im happy

im also happy because we just had an awesome 3 days chilling out at Hermosa
Beach in LA
damn it was good
swimming in the ocean, drinking at the pier and hanging out with some cool
local crew
yeah we met some cool people once again
its becoming a habit
and its a good habit too
it would be even better if it distracted me from cigarettes and alcohol but
meeting people just seems to add to that really

speaking of habits
since Mitchells introduction to pot smoking the other nite in Canada
he hasnt stopped
he`s turned into a pot eating machine
we found him down at the pier the other day absolutely out of his mind
he was throwing cigarettes at people
screaming "stop asking me for money"
he was wearing these camp little thermal leggins with colourful stripes all
over em
and he had these massive sunnies on and he was full on sweating
when we first found him he starting jumping around kind of doing circles and
sort of ballet dancing
and we were like
shit Mitch
youre freaking out
i went and got him an 8th of vodka and he sculled it and passed out

hows this
to get to Hermosa we drove 30 hours non stop from Vancouver Island in Canada
30 hours
can you believe it?
it was, at some times, surreal
it was just so bizarre to be sleeping eating driving talking reading living
whilst fangin` along at 120 kms an hour
we stopped only for the border crossing and for fuel
if you ever get the chance to do what we did
then dont
it was pretty shit really

and speaking of travel
we fly out to Japan tomorrow
uhooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
i cant wait
ive fully been studying Japanese
i can totally express my emotions in their language
which is ironic really
because just about he only thing i can express in English is the fact that i
dont understand it

anyway
i guess thats it for now
top notch
i hope everyone is well

please recycle
send money spare money to poorer people
and after that
get a dog for me
love
from Clay
