Barry's Stats 3/14

God I don't want to sell today. My insides feel like a turd has been sitting in there rotting for years. Maybe if I barf I can rid myself of these sensations.

I don't want to even approach anyone, I'll sit here and just watch people. Oh shit, the guy who solicits donations for starving kids in Pebble Beach is here, might as well quit.

Okay, I'm just going to sit and see what happens. Ok, here comes a single person, what the heck.

No? Oh okay, I didn't want to sell anything to you anyway.

Here's comes a nice looking black couple. "Hi, can you help me? I've got to sell this book today, will you stop and listen." "You're up a creek if you depend on us." At least they smiled and we had a good laugh.

Oh well, think I'll sit down again. No sense in rushing this. I've always been a little lazy. Look laid back but all tense inside. Yuch, who'd want to buy from me anyway.

Here's comes a nice looking guy.

Wow, he even let me give my pitch. No sale, but I realized I've been looking down. Eyes up to right and left. Visualize someone stopping.

Here's another No and another. Shit, lousy day. Should have stayed in bed. No one wants me. World's coming to an end anyway. I'll probably always be a failure. Keep eyes up and visualize, damn it.

I could quit now and leave, but what the heck, it's a sunny day so I'll just sit.

Here comes someone. Wow, he even let me make the pitch. That wasn't too bad.

And another lady. She said she had no money but listened anyway. What a sport.

Lady who said no earlier came back pushing twins. "So you think I have time to read. Not with these two and another over there. I don't even have time to pee." We smiled and laughed with each other.

Hello mudda... hello fodda.. here I am at Camp Granda... it's stopped raining...sun is shining.

Stopped another guy. From Montana, maybe he's a rancher. Probably has a gun rack. Anyway he listened.

Two to go. Next guy, listened smiled and said he'd check it out at the library. Ha!!

One more to go. Big guy with suit, looks like a sales type. He listened to the pitch and at least said, "No, but nice presentation."

Well, the sun is out, seems like the turd has passed. Can feel a lighter feeling in my chest. Guess I won't jump off the parking structure after all.
