Day 2

I woke up to another person pounding on the window this morning.  Jeez, I guess some people don’t like to let others sleep in.  There were lots of people coming by today.  One guy was perplexed by the idea that I really can’t come out or open the door to explain why I am doing this.  I tried to motion that he should facebook me…we’ll see if I make a new friend.

The number one question everyone asks is if I have a bathroom. I took a few pictures to show you that indeed I do. It has a makeshift shower, but it serves its purpose.

One of my other visitors was a friend.  He sent me a text that said, “This feels kinda fucked coming to see you, but staring at my phone the whole time.”  I replied, “ That’s kinda the point.”

Living in public is strange.  At home, I don’t get text message telling me that I should make my bed.  I usually do, but today I didn’t.  That will teach me.

I am kind of starting to feel like I live in a zoo, but I am okay with it for now.

Day 1

Wow, it’s really happening.  As of 12 am this morning, this is my new place of residence for the next 30 days.  I had a little anxiety about sleeping while being watched, but I slept like a baby last night. Even though two people banged on the windows trying to wake me so they could explain how they were going to rescue me. I’m excited to see how the next few weeks will go.
