Stranded in Portland

[cosmic_osmo]

As of 10pm last night our car is officialy dead, fucked, broken, finished. We spent $3000 to have the transmission rebuilt 2 years ago and now it conveniantly snaps on us again. As of right now, Soph and I are screwed. Soph can't get to school and it'll be a total bitch for us to get to work. We have no money, no resources, and no where we can go.

i thought that cool train went by the school
my uncle up there gets by without a car, he said that you can use the train passes for the busses too and with those you can get close to anywhere.

for 3k you can get a different used car. ill be up there on the 20th ish of November for a few weeks at least, for sure this time =), if you want we can go car shopping or just get drunk at an irish pub either way.

keep your head up bro
hopefully after nov 2 life will get better for everyone

see you soon

Yeah, we'll be taking the train and bus alot until we figure something out. Biggest problem for me is Sophie having to walk to and from work because it's too close for bus but it still takes 30 min to walk. Which is ok during the day but I worry about her walking at night. I'm really looking forward to seeing you brother, the 20th can't come soon enough. Thank you for the words of encouragment :)

i want to say m60 but im not sure if Sophie would be happy lugging that 30 min each way so ill have to recomend the mp5 you dont have to be accurate because of its high rate of fire that will make her night trip alot safer. since our president let the assult wepons ban elapse you can gen one for 300~ at a gun show with no 15 day waiting period.

im looking forward to seeing you too. im trying to work it so i can stay there permanantly asap. i have been in SJ for only a few hours and i am burnt out this place has a menacing high stress vibe.

anyways let me know if you need anything at all. rpgs are still illegal but i can get you one if it willl make you feel safer. or a few stingers if your nervous about black helicopters or ufos.

so basicaly the moral of this story was my dad got a new bass boat and im invading costa rica because i cannot resist the temptation of there mighty coconut sorbet.

guh, after all the effort to get all the school everything set up, i really hope you guys can work something out, transmission breaking after two years, that's some bullshit, i hate saying things to people when bad things happen because i feel like a dick, oh well, i am genuinely sorry to hear about this

i also feel like a dick for not emailing you or anything since i got here, not for lack of want but i just haven't been home and i'm lazy, but i do want to hit you up for some kind of correspondence, here i go: how's katamari damacy?

stay positive, money comes and goes, life is dynamic, things will change, blah blah blah, some cliched rhetoric but it helps me feel better when crap like that happens, have a good one you guys, hope to see you soon

[cosmic_osmo]

Thanks man. It helps to just have friends to relate with. Don't worry about not emailing, I'd be just as much of a "dick" for not emailing you so were even :) Oh, and Katamari is fucking brilliant!! Best "Engrish" game I've ever played. You should see my collection now, I'll email you a pic. Once again though, Thank you for the words of encouragment.
