Before you ask I have spent the last four days looking for dick-stick guy with no luck. Not sure if you can die from a dickhole infection but I’m really hoping that’s not the case. I did meet a fascinating new tribe wait, that’s offensive because they might actually be indigenous, group of street people who all have the same tattoos, facial bone structure, and oddly bleached on just the top - hair. I would have taken their picture but when I met them they were either looking for or just scored some drugs and they were at group DEFCON1!
Heads on twitchy swivels it was like the three of them each had a dozen eyes. I even pulled out the phone to do the pretend to read something stealth picture but one of them locked on to my device as if it were made from irresistible drugs (which upon reflection it might have been had they been able to get it away from me) I tried asking them about Dick Stick but my description left a lot to be desired and by that point looking for drugs was out the window as they were all high as fuck.
His only disguingishing feature is his lower jaw sticks out Sling Blade style and he is missing the the two center teeth from his mandible. This gives an eerie peek inside of a mouth that no one wants to see. Anyway, I still gave them a general description while asking if they knew him and it turned out that my earlier assessment was dead on. They were super high and I could have said beep beep boop bop beep and been just as understood.
Then I felt like I was on Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom as all three of their heads swiveled in the same direction and two of them stood all the way up for no reason I could immediately detect. Once I figured out I should triangulate their site lines I noticed a pack of six or seven teenagers heading our way. High human Meerkats alerted me to danger before I knew what was happening.
side note: I’m wondering where I could hide some trail cams and how long they would actually last.. putting a mental pin in that thought.
I decided to take my leave of the situation because if these beings were scared there was no need for me to end up somewhere I shouldn’t be. I did glance back and noticed they had moved to a more defensible location before the pack reached their position. I think with some study the teenagers were the human equivalent of a pack of hyena. (don’t come at me if the plural is something different because I don’t really give a shit) This made me feel better about the decision to skedaddle.
In other news today finds me working on a resume for the first time in close to twenty years. With every other job change I’ve been recruited away from one company to the next so actively looking is going to be new for me. It does feel good to be doing something rather than lamenting they way things should be. I’m in no hurry because there isn’t a clock on this. Thought of an improved future do so make me smile. I’ll leave you with a bridge pic from a new path walked.
