A blog for my young friends in Homer, and anyone else wishing to follow my ongoing adventures in the city of Los Angeles.

Itinerary Status: CONFIRMED

I'm doin' it, y'all! I was going to hang around Anchorage and try to get a little work, but I don't have the patience for that. The soles of my feet are itchy and only THE ROAD can scratch them.
It's not a moment too soon, because I've been getting soft here in Anchorage. I've been eating sumptuous meals constantly, either cooked by mother or at one of Anchorage's many amazing restaurants. I'm sleeping excessively, playing video games until my eyes bleed, and spending all of my time socializing with friends I haven't seen in a long time. It's like a nightmare! I'm unbearably anxious to get down to Los Angeles so I can begin my life of poverty and toil.
So here's what I'm doing:

Sunday, the 22nd: I leave bright and early in the morning and drive to Haines Junction. This is in Canada, and will probably be like a 12-hour drive or something. It's going to be pretty intense. I've been saving up a lot of Loveline episodes for this part of the journey.

Monday, the 23rd: I'll wake up in Haines Junction and drive back into Alaska, to the town of Haines. I'll probably have a few hours to screw around in Haines, then I get on the ferry at like 8 O'Clock that night. My Jeep gets on the ferry too.

Monday-Friday (23-27): I'M ON A BOAT!

Friday the 27th: Me and my Jeep get off the boat in Bellingham, WA. I'll probably drive to Seattle.

Friday-Sunday (27-29): Chillin in Seattle with my sister. She will have just started her Spring break, so we'll be able to hang out.

After that, it gets a little less exact. From Seattle I'll go to Portland, I've got a few friends there. From Portland I'll go stop off in San Francisco, see some buddies there, then it's on to LA!

I'm very excited about these travel plans. Especially the part where I'm on the boat. By all accounts, the drive to Haines may be a little sketchy, but that's why I bought a Jeep! I have no doubt Nellie will see me through safely.

I have no idea what I'm going to do in LA, so I'm focusing on getting there at this point.


By the way, big ups to everyone who got cast in Marc's play: Abby, Theo, Emerson, Sarah, Casey, Ben, Leeza, and whoever plays that one other part that isn't cast yet.

Also, I wanna give a very special shout-out to my man Brian Strickland, aka Stricky, aka Demetrius, aka General Snippet. This guy is living proof that there is life outside Homer, and I'm glad to see him following the blog.
