right this is super fast, my teas about ready. basically currently living in a mansion with tom and keyuko [or something] theyre paying me $15 per hr for doing random jobs. hes a fairly famous carpenter and has been in stuff like the LA times and made loads of stuff for JR in dallas and rock hudson. he also does some amazing sculptures.
oh so more time, theyve gone to see some terrible movie and ive got the house to myself, sound!
so ye ive landed on my feet massively! i get fed some really good food, theyre both really interesting and open minded and seem to quite like me. not sure how long im going to stick around for - defo till sunday but then they move house so i might just use their place to stash my stuff whilst i go on this big old trek you can do round the coast.
oh ye the guy im stoppin with originally trained to be a doctor at some really good uni but his dad left his ma and so he had to drop out and provide for his mum and shit so he turned to be a carpenter and seemingly got pretty good. his house is amazing, full of loads of carvings and skulptures and mad old furniture hes made.
so so glad i chose to run away from the grotty farm!
will try and get a photo of this house at some point
oh ye we have some mormons or general bible bashers coming round tomorrow - tom invited them, not because he's religious but because [he quoted some mad old mexican dude who taught him all him carpentry skills] 'every man's head is its own world'. so he just wants to chat to them to find out more about different people, thats pretty much why hes putting me up.
spent today about 2 or 3 stories up sweeping some leaves off a roof, fairly scary and nearly fell off twice. shit my pants. then went to his new house in the mountains to set up this mint bose stereo and dug a big old trench. day off tomorrow then on friday we're clearing a trail from his mountain house down to the river with some machetes and a chainsaw. coool. this money should buy me a second hand board. hopefully.
sweet love
xx
