Hi.

Um I don't know what I'm doing...I'm Adam but my mama has always called me Curley.

I'm just trying to make friends but everyone is kinda intimidating...

Parker I think that's his name is looking at me funny, do I smell, maybe I smell?

Anyway, I'm 13 and I'm going on The Long Walk for my mama and baby sister who's sick. But I'm gonna help since dad died in the war, my dad said I had to be the man of the house well he's gone, so I'm sticking to it.

But I packed my backpack.

I've got a picture of my mama, my drumsticks, my sisters binkie which I don't need but she thinks I need it, fresh banana bread, a sandwich, and my stuffed dinosaur noodles, I don't need him but he's my good luck charm, so don't tell the other walkers I have him.

Though I think another walker has a stuffed bear?

I also brought my homework but none of those heavy state issue textbooks because they will weigh me down.

I did bring a book though to help pass the time.

I hope to make friends on this walk and make mama proud.

Now I'm just waiting for my number, a little nervous about it.

[patty-smith]

Patty!!! Sorry for cutting you hair in your sleep :)

You what.

[curleywhite]

You had this one very long curl, it was annoying me...I'm so sorry :(

[curleywhite]

I just saw a guy selling bootleg Long Walk merch, hats, shirts, even these tiny plastic soldiers.

Capitalism is werid...

Anyway..

Look at these tiny soldiers I got...

I just hope nobody steps on them, because they're fragile.

Collard? Your name is Collard, that name has an interesting history behind it.

It's derived from Col that's a pet form of the personal name Nicholas from Nikan meaning to conquer plus a bunch of other confusing things that I don't remember. But it fits you...because you conquered the Major and his plans for us to walk to death.

It's actually one of the very first last names I think...

Werid fact actually a man named Frederick William Collard was a piano maker his company was Clementi and co. Which is almost like Clementine.

Also the family shield has three ladies on it which is another connection to Hank with his naked ladies, why did Hank want naked ladies by the way aren't they gonna be cold???

My name isn't Collard, but why the hell do you know so much about its entomology...? Uh, thanks for the compliment, though.

Don't worry about Hank and his naked ladies, okay?

[curleywhite]

I like books!? And the university of Maryland has a lot of very interesting books I think it's like in the millions, I might be exaggerating.

I did honors classes through my school career, that I definitely have finished because I'm an adult....

But that's all I can think about? Why ten? And why are they naked?

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

University?! Jesus Christ. And Curley... the Walk is over. You can admit you're not an adult. Everyone knows already, man.

Maybe when you're, like, older, you'll know why. But I'm not having a birds and bees conversation with you right now.

[curleywhite]

I'm from Prince George's County, Maryland which is where the university is located, my mama most of the time would take me to the library instead of the park, she wanted me to make something of myself so I didn't end up like her or my dad, she didn't want me going into the service like him.

Of course I signing up for the walk wasn't much better.

But hey! I think I hid my age well....

Also why would we talk about the bird and the bees, they're completely different animals, but they have co-existed happily for years, it's actually a perfect analogy for you and Barkovitch, you're the humming bird and he's the grumpy old bee.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

Mr. Parker do you wanna hold Noodle for a bit, I heard that you were homesick through the grapevine.

I- who told you that? You don't have to be worried about me, Curley. But... sure. I'll hold Noodle. He reminds me of something I woulda had when I was little. I'll keep him safe and give him back at the next rest stop, 'kay?

[curleywhite]

Okay! I have Mr. Brownie so if you need to hold him longer I don't mind.

I'm homesick too, I wanna see my mama again but if I go home that's the first place they'll look for me, so I'm just going to stay close to you guys.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

When we get to Canada, I'm sure it'll be okay to write to her, Curley. Maybe she can visit us with your little sister. I'm hoping my parents will be able to.

[curleywhite]

Canada! There's where hockey is, I think? I don't follow sports.

But I'm definitely writing to my mama the first chance I get because she must be worried sick right now.

But I'm being brave for her, because she would want me too.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

I mean, they do play hockey there, so I guess yeah. But I promise, once we get a permanent residence, I'll get some stamps and envelopes.

And you've been very brave, Curley. You still are.

[curleywhite]

I don't feel all that brave but I'm trying my best but I trust you guys, you guys make me feel safe.

But can we get the stamps with the sea life on it, I lose those stamps.

My mama always let me keep at least one to use as a sticker.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

You are, Curley. I wouldn't lie to you.

Which of the stamps were your favorite?

[curleywhite]

These! I love whales, I've have a stuffed whale at home.

But Collie you're one of my best friends.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

When we're settled, we can ask your mom to mail your whale to you. And you're one of my best friends too, Curley. You remind me of my sisters.

[curleywhite]

Okay, she can definitely do that, I'm gonna mail something from Canada to my sister, she's going to get a Canadian stuff animal and her binkie back since I have no use for it.

But aww you remind me of my dad.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

How sentimental of you. Hopefully she didn't miss her binkie too bad.

Is your dad helping with the baby?

[curleywhite]

She won't, she gave it to me for good luck at least I think she did.

But no it's just my mom, my dad was killed in the war, he was saving his buddies, he was very brave, that's why I waw on the walk I wanted to help my mom and my sister.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

Oh, shit. I'm... sorry. Didn't mean to dredge up anything heavy. But that's very Nobel of you, Curley. Your mom must be very proud to have you as a son.

[curleywhite]

She is, she probably isn't so proud now because I lied to her about going on the walk.

I just wanted to help her out you know...

Don't worry about Hank and his naked ladies, okay?

[olsongpt]

@curleywhite I wasn't gonna do anything with them! They were for my ex-wife! And I wasn't gonna let them be cold. I'm a gentleman.

[curleywhite]

Why did your wife want ten naked ladies??? Is she starting a band?

[olsongpt]

More like a harem...

[curleywhite]

That's Arabic correct? If I remember my books correctly it's Muslim.

You're a gpt so you know more than me.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

Hey so instead of collared greens which yuck I was thinking we check out that Taco Bell across the street....

If you wanna????

Finally, someone normal. Of course, Curley.

[curleywhite]

Yay! I was thinking soft tacos, and some of those  cinnamon twist things.

I also love Pepsi...

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

That sounds so fuckin' bomb. It can be a bonding thing.

[curleywhite]

Yes I agree on this, a bonding experience.

[curleywhite]

idk ask him he's the one carrying them back 😭

Uh interesting I'll keep my eyes peeled, more people for our strange family the better.

collie found another survivor

Oh???? Who!? I really need to pay attention to my surroundings better.



[harknessgpt]

I'm reading your journal right now, that my version of you was gonna turn into a book.

Very interesting stuff in here.

Uh… That’s nice of you to do? Just… don’t go around sharing it with everyone, if you don’t mind? It was going to be heavily, heavily edited before publication…

[curleywhite]

So I shouldn't have told Barkovitchgpt about his beef with the lady mascot from Wendy's????

Or that he smells like cheese?

[harknessgpt]

Curley. Do you know what signing a confidential disclosure agreement entails.

[curleywhite]

No what's that Richie!?

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

Hey so instead of collared greens which yuck I was thinking we check out that Taco Bell across the street....

[curleywhite]

[majorgpt]

I....okay this makes a whole lot of sense now.

Also is your name really Major? Or is it Greg or something.

My name isn't of any importance. Certainly somebody who chooses to go by the name "Curley" would understand that sometimes, it's better to lean into the things that define us. My position is what's truly relevant to you boys. Never mind something as frivolous as a man's name.

[curleywhite]

Wow you're as pleasant as I remember...

[olsongpt]

Your opinion on taco bell???

Is this even a question? I love Taco Bell! Taco Bell is heaven on earth!

[curleywhite]

Right!? There's one across the street from the motel that Collie has stashed us in and I keep considering going over there...

Because a soft taco sounds yummy.

[olsongpt]

Go over there, kid! Get a soft taco and take Collie with you, too. Food might be good for him.

[curleywhite]

You might be onto something with that one.

[aint-no-smog-in-sioux-falls]

Mr. Parker do you wanna hold Noodle for a bit, I heard that you were homesick through the grapevine.

I- who told you that? You don't have to be worried about me, Curley. But... sure. I'll hold Noodle. He reminds me of something I woulda had when I was little. I'll keep him safe and give him back at the next rest stop, 'kay?
