Yo, bro. How's "primitive" camping going? Does your laptop and phone help? The last time I primitive camped, we didn't even have a heat source. We ate bags of tuna fish and cold canned soup. (Then we drove forty-five minutes to the nearest grocery store to buy two bags of junk food, but that's really beside the point.) And the wind mercilessly bore down on our shoddy tent all night. We had to hike three miles with everything on our backs, and Nathan insisted on bringing heavy, hot blankets that we never used. I don't think Evan will ever want to camp again. So enjoy two months of luxury.
PS. I guess I probably won't be getting that DVD for a while now, eh?

My laptop and phone are both useless while I'm out there. I get no reception on the phone and unless i stick to writing word documents, my laptop is no help either.
We have the best heat source available. The sun. Our only problem is not burning to a crisp in it.

We dug a latreen (well, just a hole in the ground) and we pack in our water and food. I picked up a coleman lantern and single propane burner for cooking, but thats about it. Primitive basicly means no water or electricity. I'll email pictures to everyone as soon as I take them.

As for your DVD, I'm sending mom the cable to the atari on monday or tuesday. It will be with that. I don't remember what all you wanted on it so either email me a list again or you will get all kinds of random stuff.

I plan on traveling around when i get down to austin. We will have to work out a time when i can visit.

Ok, new list, if you haven't already sent one: Any leo cohen besides best of, especially "Dear Heather" and any album containing "Hallelujah," any Iron & Wine besides endless numbered days, The song Guernica by Brand New and all of Your favorite weapon by Brand New, because I don't remember which song I'm missing from that album. I'm also curious about Jeff Buckley, so any of that would be cool. Let's see... I still need to get the first Wallflowers album, Red Letter Days, and Breach... Most from Bringing down the horse aren't the best quality either, so how about all wallflowers albums except Rebel sweetheart. Yeah, so that and whatever else you see fit would be awesome.

What the hell is a hoosier? The Hoosier State? I can't help it.

You're going to get lice.

Or you're going to meet people and quit writing in your livejournal. Then you're going to forget about dirty hippiness and you'll be a couch surfer instead. Which is like a hippie only not at all. No love, no energy, no spacy ideas, no nature... just bad hair and being unwelcome.

Do you understand me?

The Fremont Fair is going on today. You're not here to enjoy it. I'm not there to enjoy it either. I'm at home in a towel unable to find my phone.

Seattle is completely boring without you. And even though it's not true, I will keep telling you that it sucks because I love you.

Bob Says,

"Back in the settlin' days, someon'd knock on yer door and yell Hoos ier?" (who' there)
He also explained it could mean, "Hoo sier daddy?"

I think we have it set up so we don't have to be particularly filthy or hippie. (thank god)

I hope i can find a job soon.

Shit, you're still jobless?

Oh wait, you've been there for like a day.

Work at the Mickey D's. Or at the buffet place.

I still have a job. I just got a $700 dollar paycheck. Too bad it's all just going up my nose. I'm such a cliche.

I know, I'm not really sure I know what to do without a job ( ... )
