Stories from BlogHer08
As I mentioned in my disclaimer, I smoke. Which means I go outside, yes? Homeless people have been asking me for money. And when I say that, I mean every.single.time. 3-4 a time. I don’t have it to give to them – so I would simply smile, say I’m sorry I don’t have any, and watch them move on. Some more pissed at me than others. One even trapped me in a corner, but I didn’t give up my space, so he eventually moved on. I decided early on I was a magnet. My BlogHer08 badge screamed tourist, I suppose (not to mention I was hanging out around a hotel.) Schmutzie came out with me. I don’t think she believed me, as we were on the other side of the hotel this time, and she hadn’t had any problems with it at all. Until 3-4 came up to us while she was with me. Told you – I’m magnet.

I would have been out there smoking right along with you but I’m such a sucker, I just give them the money which in SF probably would have made them all flock to me like when people feed one seagull at the beach and 600 are suddenly flying around and crapping all over you.
