But you have to remember, when I started, I didn't have anything.

I had two roommates, bro.
All I had to cover every month living in Tallahassee was three hundred and seventy five dollars.
And I did that at Golden Corral.
So the money I was making on the weekend, that was just extra gravy.
And I was riding the Greyhound.

I worked 15 hours a week at Golden Corral.

That would be miserable.
Monday through Thursday, Golden Corral.
Thursday night, I take the Greyhound to wherever my weekend gigs are.
