well, i'm in CT right now, visiting family... it's like 12am right now... i get a call from one of my buddies back in AZ... he got held up @ gun point with a few of our other friends from some fucking crack-head tweeker junkie! they are all over the place in the valley, it's sick... at least the bums in NY are harmless... well, for the most part. shit that makes me so mad! we always go through so much shit, i'm scared that if things progress, one of us might get seriously hurt... i can only hope for the best for us 4 children lost in the desert (and the girlfriend too!). 
I've been held up before, that shit's no fun at all...numbs you.
sorry, random posting
