Robbery

Upon unequivocally embracing the cheap "smartphone" yesterday, I came to realize that the small iPad® mini 2 tablet computer is way too big and heavy to be considered portable. It is great for use in a home, or when adequate space is available in public areas. For a rational homeless guy, the iPad® may as well be a desktop computer. With that said, I am planning to limit the deployment of the iPad® to home-like environments only. Yes, even the VOIP phone idea has been shelved. The cheap "smartphone" will now assume full mobile responsibilities. And, were it not for the "blog," I could easily get by with the cheap "smartphone" alone.

There are days in which I feel that I am ready to assume the mantle of homelessness. Then, there are days in which I have serious doubts that I could last more than a week under such duress. Options are rapidly disappearing, though. As I mentioned previously in the "blog," room rental listing are dwindling, with monthly rents mostly above $1,000 per month. Once my temporary reprieve in Waimanalo is over, there will be only be homelessness awaiting me. Whether I am ready or not will be irrelevant at that point.

So, my upcoming task will be focused on locating possible undisturbed overnight parking spots for a homeless motorhome. Solitary camping in the open is out of the question, not even in emergency situations. I would be easy prey for the homeless predators who cruise around for victims late at night. All other homeless issues and logistics are trivial. I have already engineered solutions for the latter and former anyway. Right now, the "jury is still out" concerning the exact homeless timetable.

In any case, I have been configuring the cheap "smartphone" to be an all-in-one homeless appliance. For example, I can set the alarm to go off at the exact time that I must vacate the undisturbed overnight parking spot. The cheap "smartphone" will also suffice as a general purpose clock. The homeless motorhome will have charging ports, so the cheap "smartphone" can recharged on-board. No searching for "free" electricity. The "blog" will most likely be back on a sporadic schedule. So, the iPad® may then be divested or stored safely somewhere.

The usual itinerary and agenda was observed once again. Howver, the morning was marred by yet another break-in of my locker at the gym. I had dropped off my gym bag in a locker and walked to the snobbish coffee shop to procure an expensive cup of coffee. The place was packed with people, so I was not able to relax and connect to the Net through the free wireless "hotspot" with the cheap "smartphone." When I returned, I found my lock and gym bag missing. I reported the incident to Brandon, who was working at the front desk. With his assistance, the ruffled gym bag was located in a other locker. Nothing was stole, thank Molech. And, fortunately, I chose to not carry the iPad® with me today. Again, thank Molech.

Only my bus pass was in my gym bag at the time of the attempted robbery. The police were called, but nothing could be done. No one witnessed the travesty. So, I ended up purchasing a new, albeit quality, lock for $12 and some change. Sadly, not even the sight of a certain fitness and training hottie could bring redemption to the day. Baby was looking mighty fine by the way. Unfortunately, baby did not come around.

Anyway, no evening outing in Kahala again. Cancelled due to bad weather. I returned to Waimanalo early after procuring dinner in the Hawai'i Kai area. The landlord offered me leftovers from an earlier family get-together. How could I refuse?

On a side note, the crappy Chrome browser on the cheap "smartphone" is acting up. It is doing all kinds of strange things while I am attempting to compose the "blog." It is also deleting embedded pictures (i.e., hottie pictures). Very frustrating. So, the next 23 days of posts will simply be a photography album of hottie pictures. Any important developments will be stated in the last paragraph.
