Being Homeless Sucks


I am officially homeless tonight. Maybe tomorrow night too.

I lost my driver's license. And credit card. Through them away in a takeout bag.

So I couldn't check in to my hotel last night.

I wandered around this district until they opened The Park three hours early.

At 7 am I went to my storage unit and took a few naps until I got yelled at for being in the unit with the door closed.

There's no where half decent I can find to sleep. I was falling asleep on a bench at Hudson River Park until I...

Got yelled at because the park is closed from 1am to 6am.

How do homeless people do this daily? For their entire lives it's goddamn awful.

I saw a porta potty. Locked. I can make it until 7am again for that bathroom. But otherwise I'd have to add to the celebrity city scent.

I am a hardcore adventurer. But not being able to find a soft'ish protected'ish spot to go to sleep is trying.

Obviously I am not going to die if I am forced to stay up until my Amtrak at 6am Friday - 27 hours - but this is low speed torture.
