Riding into Mobile Saturday mornin and I’ll have the whole day ahead of me. Tried finding events on Facebook and stuff to do close to midtown, but that site is such a mess you can’t make heads or tails. Im camping in the Dog River area but I can make it to pretty much anywhere. Mobile Botanical and Japanese Gardens are getting kind of old to me. Curious about what’s going on, wherever. Open Mic at a Bar? little person wrestlin’? I don’t care. Give me ideas besides drinking and eating

I’m just as likely to die from a weirdo picking me up as i am riding southbound after the Africatown Bridge. Taking my chances.

Throw my shit in the back of your truck. Drop me off on the other side, I have no money for this just a thank you. It’s an 8 mile difference and dangerous. Willing to meet downtown tomorrow on Government at some point. Bicycle is a road bike with bags and an idiot who rides it.

Update! I Appreciate everyone who reached out. I didn’t want to put anyone out so I said fuck it and just did the bridge. It wasn’t that bad today, as opposed to the other 50 times.

im not sure what the plans are with pedestrians and river walks and bikes and doo-dads, but I am so tired of the Africatown bridge.

I’m tired. tired of feeling alone, tired of putting myself out there. I dont expect anything in return for the things I do, I do them because they need to get done. I do everything tho. who is doing anything for me? i am there to fix every issue, always, you can depend on me. and despite how I feel, I will still do it, because I love you. but where is this coming back to me? I only need it sometimes, not near as much as I give it out it. im not trying to tally my good deeds, but in the hour where I need something who do I ask? What am I to do when so many people depend on me, but I find myself alone when faced with my own problems. Now I know it’s only up to me to fix my own problems, but that lesson is cemented into me and I wish once, just once, someone would show up and help me, not because I NEED the help, but because they want to help. I’m tired of working on cars, I am tired of fixing houses, I am tired of raising other peoples kids. I am tired of feeling like the only beacon of help around. Id do All of this stuff for the people around me, and will continue to do i despite this rant. If someone cooked me a home cooked meal or brought me a gift or just thought about me, instead of being a do-for, I’d probably fucking cry. Im not asking for a parade or a special holiday, but it’s very obvious to me that I need some energy pushed my direction instead of giving it out. i need some love. I need some help.

im writing this under my car, needing someone to help me bleed my brakes. Where are they? I know i should feel no shame in asking for help but I do, but it doesn’t matter anyone cause there’s no one there to press the pedal.

kind of in a spot at the moment and i certainly take full responsibility for the circumstances I’m in. For the past 10 years I’ve been making money through various channels; flipping mobile homes, cars, running equipment. it’s all worked out great as I’ve done well for myself, my finances arent any issue. the roadblock I am running into, is through all this work and getting paid, no matter how stable I am, when it comes to applying to rent a house or an apartment, my employment history is basically nonexistent.

what I’m looking for: a landlord or apartment that will overlook this. It can be a real rathole as close to downtown as possible And cheap. I can easily pay a security deposit and rent in advance. I’m a very clean and organized person, and you may find me walking up and down the road picking up litter. something 1 bedroom would be fine as I’d give that to my daughter and I would convert the living room into my own space. I see this is far fetched but if anyone knows of anything, I’m open for it.
