Jungle Cruise on Disney+ was surprisingly funny and good. Gave off vibes of a cross between The Mummy and Pirates of the Caribbean.

I got into my IT program! I have a short course of pre-work to do before they'll officially enroll me, but I should start in September, November at the latest if the Sept. cohort fills up before I finish my pre-work. I know IT support doesn't pay amazing but I'm sure it starts higher than I'm making now and could lead to other things if I'm interested.

I'm changing my fall program from IT Support to Data Analytics. It seems more interesting, and it pays better if I can actually get my foot in the door. I think I'll have to do some independent learning on programming languages in addition to this bootcamp program to really be hirable. But I can learn everything I need on freecodecamp, so I'm working on a schedule to devote to that.

Hopefully, I stick with it.... I've been hella depressed the past couple weeks. Just feel like nothing in my life is going right, and nothing makes me happy. I have multiple things I can pursue, but the question is, do I want to? I don't mind putting in the work for things I care about it, but nothing seems worth the effort right now. Nothing that I really care about.

I DO have a initial therapy appointment tomorrow, so maybe that will help? If I can keep affording it... I have yet to find out how much insurance will cover until they actually try to bill the first session.

I just found out that my FWB passed away.:'(
He was my lover back in the early 80's.
He lived on my street, and his sister was best friends with my sister. She even married my cousin.

I was very close with his Mom, and used to spend lots of time at her house, where she taught me how to cook/clean.
He was one of the best lovers I've ever had.
Young, gorgeous. A real Italian Stallion.
He had a waterbed, lol, and we'd fuck all night long.
He always treated me with respect and was so loving and fun to be with.
I really loved him.
The family is being tightlipped about how he died.
The obituary just says that it was a long illness.
At his request, there won't be a wake or funeral.
Hmmm.

He stopped to sniff but didn't play. I'm a little tempted to put out a puzzle toy with treats but it's a bad idea to feed wildlife.

In corporate America "intellectually disabled" is the PC term.

^^^I think maybe why it is conversationally awkward is because unless you know their medical history and their actual diagnosis you end up using (inappropriate) umbrella terms. I’m not sure that there is an actual PC term for ‘slowness’ since it is an umbrella term.

I've been rotating between going to two Starbucks. My old one asked where I've been and how come I don't come in everyday like I used to. I told them I got a new sugar daddy that's been keeping me busy. It's hilarious seeing how uncomfortable they got. That got their panties so twisted and I'm all for it, lmao.

People have no problem with you fucking random dudes for free but the moment you say sugar daddy, to them that means sex for money, it's like you're holding the Bible up to the devil.

I think Neurodivergent sounds appropriate as it refers to variations in someones functioning but without being judgemental or having negative connotations.

Ha, or try telling them a heartbreaking story on how you have a love affair with a man, but he's married and you two are so sad, because you're so in love bla bla bla... watch them being completely ok with it "omg I hope he gets rid of his wife, I am so sorry you're going trough this"... LMAO.

And then tell them that you are with him only to take the loser's money, because he disrespects his family and he deserves being used and see them holding the bible back up :))))

My son let me know today that he is applying for a seasonal job a few states away in a gorgeous location. He told me about the job and it sounds awesome. I hope he gets it.

I decided if he moves away, I'm going to get a job in L.A.and move there. I know I hate how crowded it is here but I want to go there and work on film/tv sets like I have in the past and promote my book, see if I can make some connections. Get my book made into a film. This is why I moved out here and I need to get my stuff done!

I figured I could help kiddo with driving out there, then fly back. That's if he gets the job, though. He has a good shot. I think he'd have so much fun.

Well, that was depressing. I just had a long conversation with someone who had a stroke after contracting Covid. It's clear part of his brain was damaged from the stroke.

Damned shame. My greatest phobia is having neurological damage. I mean, my brain is the only thing I truly own until I die. So gah. This conversation was un-nerving.

So our next album is based on the movie Zardoz, plus of course the “Potato Cats” song (and there’s new development on that). But we were fucking around last night and ended up making pretty much an EDM song based on this scene:


https://youtu.be/gavlcbunY00

We might make it a hidden track on the album. I played it for L and her sister today (both EDM fans) and they hated the movie quotes we used (and M was just like, “What the hell kind of movies do you watch?”), but they liked the overall sound of it, so I’ll take that as a seal of approval.

The Penis Is Evil is out working title for the album, though I don’t know if it’s going to remain or not.

K came over last night for our impromptu jam session. L has been feeling left out because she doesn’t play an instrument, so I ended up giving her a tambourine and, lo and behold, she actually does have some rhythm. As we were doing our thing, I started singing random lines from the “Potato Cats” song I penned to mock my sister, and K stopped to ask about it. After I explained it to her and showed her the lyrics sheet (which was composed entirely of shit out of left field my sister said that night while she was stoned), K asked how I felt about doing an acoustic reprise. So we’re doing that, and that’s how my sister is going to find out, because that will have vocals which can be understood… not so much the case with grindcore vocals.

On a more somber note, my cat hasn’t been quite up to snuff lately. We figure she was born ~2006, so it doesn’t escape me that cats have a finite lifespan. If this is it or whenever that moment comes, I know it’s going to be really hard on me. She’s been with me on this journey since it began back in 2008. When it does come to that, I really hope that doesn’t cloud my judgment into needlessly prolonging it. I know it’s going to be difficult to let go.
