Feb 2nd

I'm glad that I'm on tour with healthy individuals that don't eat fast food. I'm sad that I haven't been able to eat for two days because we go places that opt out on the 99 cent menu. We also haven't made a Wal-mart trip at all in the past three days of tour. Therefor my need to buy cheap goods at the expense of the people that run, stock, and sell me these cheap goods has been severely deprived.

That being said, I've decided to make some changes. I'm going to up my daily salary by a dollar in order to try and squeeze 3 to 4 meals a week in. Last night, which would be early this morning for most of you, was my first meal since I started the project on Jan 31st. I ate a cheese sandwich, a couple of fig newtons, and some chips from our ryder. Food has never tasted so good. I've felt great lately, but it bothers me to think that this intense ache in my stomach is only a fraction of what people must be feeling. To think that it's something that doesn't have a solution truly saddens my heart.

The RV is incredibly difficult to sleep in so I haven't been sleeping much. Everyone says that it takes some getting used to but I find it difficult to comprehend that. I have this strange feeling of death when I try to sleep while we're driving.

I spent to the two dollars that I received today on another sandwich provided by yesterday's ryder. These purchases also allow me to play the sandwich game with my peers. Progressive sustenance plus comradery through sandwich annihilation equals happiness.



After tonight, it's 2 days off. I'm stoked for the super bowl and a shower. I haven't done that in 4 days either. Sorry mom. Thanks for trying to teach me your wholesome values.
