When I was 18, I remember my dad came down to San Diego because I was in rehab in San Diego and he picked me up and we drove north. To where? To the Bay Area, to the East Bay. We lived in Concord. Yeah, yeah. And because my grandmother lived in Lafayette. Yep, I know it. And she was... Those were nice towns. I don't know if they still are, but they were.
Well, Concord has been kind of been taken over by there's a lot of gang activity. Okay. Yeah, and like – and it borders Clayton too. So they're like – I think they're probably going to do something about it because Clayton is like a really nice area. So they're probably going to start cracking down more because the rich people are being affected. So now it's a problem.
And so yeah, so we moved up there and again I started associating with – The worst of the worst. Gangbanging meth heads. And I'd never tried meth before. And I remember I was just at this guy's house and he pulls out a pipe. I'm like, all right, yeah, try it. See what the fuss is about. And I – So you're an open-minded young man. Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, I didn't necessarily love it.
It wasn't this like, oh, yeah, I need this. But like my became my best friend was a dealer. So he always had it. So it's like I would always just, yeah, take it like a puff or two. There was one point where I stayed up for 12 days straight. And then slept for eight hours and stayed up for another sort of total of 17 days. So yeah, another five days.
And because doing heroin and meth, it's like meth when you're like basically like, you know, you're up for a day or two, you start to get weird seeing shadow people and shit like that. Then you do heroin and it's like resets you almost. It's kind of like, it's like you, it's like almost like you slept a little bit and your brain's like back to normal. normal, and it's not going into crazy mode.
I have seen meth heads, like, I remember this one story. So I was, we were at this girl's house in her garage, and it was myself, our dealer, and this chick, and she had, you know, just all of her face scratched, you know, from scratching. She looked like, it was terrifying. Um, I'd been kicked out of my house.
So we were just chilling there, you know, we're just going, you know, from place to place trying to, you know, find a spot to, you know, kick it and rest or whatever. And so we're smoking in there for like three, four hours. And, uh, her and, uh, my friend go into the bathroom or inside or how inside her house.
and I just kind of like sit back, and I end up like falling asleep, and I didn't realize, I was like, I woke up, and I was like, I had no idea how long I'd been asleep, like 30 seconds, 30 minutes, whatever, and there was no one in the garage, so I like knock on the garage, and I knock on the garage door, kind of peek my head in, I'm like, Hey, what are you guys doing? And she comes out.
She's like, close the door. I'm like, okay. And then she comes out. She's like, what are you doing in my house? My kids are in there. And I'm like, oh, my God, you have kids? And she's like, yeah, what did you steal? What did you steal? And I'm like, I didn't steal anything. And then she pulls out a handgun. Oh, my God. Yeah, and like it's this switch that flips for some people.
It's never happened to me, but this flip that switches and they just become a totally different, irrational, dangerous human being. And so – So this woman has a gun pointed at me, and she's like, empty your pockets, blah, blah, blah. And I went like this and pulled out. I was like, look, I didn't steal anything from you. What would I steal? I poked my head into your place for two seconds.
And I'm like, by the way, if you have your kids sleeping in there, you're kind of a shitty mom.
Yes. Yes. But I was thinking I was like, this woman isn't going to pull the trigger. It was a neighborhood that the houses were like right next to each other. The police station was like down the street.
I don't know what I was thinking. I was just angry and I was high too. So, you know, I'm not exactly in the best, you know, decision-making frame of mind. But anyways, so she's like, she's like, take your fucking clothes off. I want to make sure you didn't steal anything. I'm like, fuck you. Sorry. Yeah, no, no, no, please. I'm like, fuck you. You're out of your fucking mind.
I was like, I didn't steal a fucking thing from you. I was like, you're not going to shoot me. So how about you just let us fucking leave? And, um, so, and, and I'm like, and I'm, and I'm looking at my friend and I'm like, dude, and he's just standing there. Like this guy was a, a piece of work. Um, so that night, so, so she's like, all right, get the fuck out of here.
And she opens her garage up for us and we leave. And my friend calls an Uber and, uh, The Uber, like, her phone died in the middle of the ride. And so, like, the trip got canceled. And so the woman who was driving us was like, get out of my car right now. And we were like still like a couple miles from our destination, his sister's house. And he – and I was like, oh, shit.
And he's like, oh, don't worry. I have a spot we can go to. And I'm like, okay. And so we walk up the street and there's his house. And he's like, yeah – I forget who he said owned it, but, um, he's like, yeah, it's cool if we crash here. And he tries to open the front door. It's not locked. He's like, all right, let me go around the back. And he's like rummaging around.
He's rummaging around in the backyard and I'm standing in the front, just sitting on the steps. Cause I didn't think there was anything sketchy. And this car drives by and it kind of slows down. And, um, And then it keeps going. And I'm like, huh, that was weird. And then it loops back and then stops. And I was like, oh, shit. So I had a backpack with me.
I grabbed my backpack, hopped the fence into the backyard. And I was like, hey, dude, someone's here. And he takes off. Um, and I'm running and I, it's like, it's four, it's like four in the morning in Northern California in the winter. And I'm running and it's pitch black and I fall into a pool. Um, this is like one of the worst nights of my life.
And I was in, and I was in a low key opiate withdrawal too, on top of all of that.
Yeah. Yeah. And that's why I was so irritable. And probably if I, yeah, if I had been, you know, if I was on heroin, it probably would have gone down a lot differently, but, uh, I probably wouldn't have been as aggressive, but I was so, you know, ticked off. And so, uh, I, uh, fall in the pool. I see flashlights like coming towards us.
