Starting the day by meeting a high tweaker on the bus will wake you up in the morning

Bussing it to work as usual. Young man with big muscles talking to himself at the front of the bus. Pupils dilated. Since he's next to a wheelchair bound person, I decide to sit in front of him. He is actually talking to himself about how he cooks meth. Anyway, nobody seems bothered by him, including the operator, who is just bright and cheerful on a sunny Sunday morning.

So tweaker waves at me and says "Hi, I'm Jeremiah what's your name?" So I tell him and he says, "I love your mind."

He asks me, "Have you ever played Magic The Gathering or Dungeons and Dragons IknowImweirdtoyou." I say "oh, naaaw" (a lie). Then he says I should go to REI and try those "five finger shoes" because they will center my energy. I go, "Oh, okay!" So then the passenger on his other side asks him about these shoes, and they get a conversation going.

Made me feel like I was in Hollyweird.
