I could probably find someone else, and I was gonna do just that...There were plenty of other people out on this street that I could have hit up, but instead of trying to find someone else, after I got about 100 ft up the road, I turned around and went back to the driveway with the Bimmer kids...
It takes balls to do this, because you never know how people are gonna react when you point blank ask them for drugs like I was about to do...
I walked right up the driveway to where they were and I was like, "Hey man, what's up...I called my friend I was supposed to meet him earlier, and now, he's not pickin up his phone, can you guys help me out?"...
At first, the one kid, the only one that was talking to me so far says...."Naaa papi, I don't know what you mean, but I don't do that....I don't know you".....
I'm like "No, I'm sorry man...I'm not tryin to scare you...I know you don't know me..."....Just then, one of the other kids workin under the car comes out and stands next to the other kid and looks at me, "Whatchou needed?"....
"Dope...."
He looks at the other kid, "How much?"....
"I want a half, but if it's good I'll take more".....
"You're not a cop?"....
"No man!"....
It's 90 degrees out and I'm wearing a dark blue hoodie and shorts, I pull up my sleeve and show him the marks on my right arm. He says, "Man! Okay...follow me".....
We walk behind the house out of view of the street, and he runs in the house...He comes out puts a half gram of some beige powder in my hand and I give him the money.
"You gotta phone? take my number", he says...
I take his number and call his phone so he knows who I am....
Now I have my dope.....
As I'm walking away he says, "Call me, you're gonna like that! Oh, you do coke too? I got that powder ..."
Bingo!! I tell him "Yeah, I'm gonna go try this and if it's straight I'll come right back for another few whole Gs"...
At this point, I'm fuckin happy as shit! I might have just scored a decent connect for dope and powder!
But first things first, I gotta find a spot to bang this speedball....I gotta fucking bottle of vinegar in my pocket to break down the crack, a half gram of dope and a 20 piece of rock in my mouth, a new bottle of water, a new rig and a q-tip and I'm ready to go! I walk further into this neighborhood and I see a boarded up house with a chain-link fence around it...The yard is completely over-grown...the grass is two feet tall. It's the perfect cover!
I'm able to slip under the fence and go to the back of the house where the stairs to the basement are...Between my location behind the house and the tall grass, I can take my time...
Nobody's gonna see me back there! It's always sneaking in and out of the place you hide to do the shot that's the riskiest part! If a cop happens to drive by when you're coming in or out, you're getting searched! This is why I always keep the drugs in my mouth...It's saved me countless time from going to jail!...The crack I had in my mouth then was in some random crackheads mouth not even a half hour earlier, but fuck it, I guess...It's not like I was sharing needles or fucking the dude!
I throw the crack in the cap first...I throw 30 units of vinegar on it and mash it up really fine....It completely dissolves and turns clear, with no visible particles at all, which for IV crack, is always a plus! I take the half gram of dope and dump it in the cap I just rinsed with water...I squirt the 30 units of coke solution on top and then add another thirty of water. I mix up the whole thing and it turns a nice Iced tea color, no insoluble cut in the dope either!...I use good size filters for both draws, I suck up the 60 into the syringe, find a vein and bam!
The dope is good! Despite my tolerance I get a strong rush from it and just as it's starting to hit me good I feel the coke come on! My heart skips a beat and I feel my blood pressure rise and tingle starting in my genitals and rising up and radiating out of my chest! I feel a slight paranoia and tweakiness at first, but the dope takes the edge right off....For just throwing two pretty random amounts of each together, it was a good speedball!
I'm feeling as happy as a dope fiend loser could feel at that moment...I just found a new connection who has dope that's even better than my main guy, and he has powder! No more need to run around today, just call that guy back, walk two blocks over, and I'm good!
I call the guy up and order 3 grams of dope and a gram of powder....He tells me to come right over, and 10 minutes later I'm in business! Now I'm nervous though, because I have all that shit on me and a long walk out of an area that I could get searched at any moment! I'll swallow the 4 grams if I have to....I have enough of a tolerance to handle 3 grams of oral heroin, but I'm more nervous about the gram of coke...Of course, I've never had one burst open on me...Holes in the bag, but never break open..
About 3 minutes after I walk away, the girl who gave me 100 dollars to buy dope for her calls...she's out of work and wants to know where I am...Perfect timing! I go into the hood burger king and order a coke and fries and she picks me up 15 minutes later....gone!
I get back home, get my girlfriend well and shoot the gram of coke....I have enough dope that I don't freak out too too bad...but when I'm lying in bed nodding a few hours later, I reach down and feel something on my calf, two little strange bumps! I pull up my pant-leg and there's two tiny little ticks attached to my leg....The little kind, the ones you don't wanna have...deer ticks!
Fuck, just my luck!! I'm the only person in history who's gonna contract Lyme disease from shooting up in the ghetto!
Stupidly, I ripped the ticks off, which causes them to release their juices into you....But hey, maybe these ticks don't have lyme disease...It killed my high
I read about it online...read about the "bulls eye" and sure enough, four days later...the two distinctive bulls eyes show up on my leg! God Dammit!
I get tested a few weeks later and I have fucking Lyme disease, but thankfully, I caught it early and can hopefully knock it out....Last I checked, it's still gone, thank God....
but lately, I can't get the thoughts through my brain clearly, and that's what people who have Lyme disease that's progressed describe...man, I don't feel like having blood drawn to check again, but I really should....Lyme disease is pretty common, particularly in the Northeast, and it sucks if it progresses...
Just felt like writing...trying to organize my thoughts....It used to flow so clear, now my brain
