He made my day.

No tel(??) line

Help
Can leave $1 here
for you Fri. [might say something else] 7AM.
I looked up the address and it doesn't exist. I also found this note on saturday so if the last line does say "Fri" then whoops, I missed it.

I used to live in an apartment next to this alcoholic guy. I never once saw him wearing a shirt. He was a nice guy, but a little too nice. Used to leave me little notes in my mail slot. "Have a nice day!" "Have a great day, and the day after that!" All written on lined paper with crayon and marker. One had a candy bar taped to it. I didn't eat it. I moved out.
