The wind is doing things to my beard.

This subway stop is almost kinky.

Walked 5 miles. Now I’m bushed.

At Kajiken soba on 6th Ave in Manhattan.

Gave my beard a bit of a blowout this morning.

Starting to get chat requests here that start with, “u have WhatsApp?” No. We are NOT playing that. GTFO.

If you were here you could be having Japanese curry rice with me.

Headed back to New Jersey for work. Really not a good time for me to travel but here we are.

Fried, over easy with buttered sourdough.

I don’t have one. I don’t enjoy watching or playing any sport. Never got those genes.

The state of things.

Neckties. I loathe the damn things. I don’t find then appealing nor useful. Bow ties I like oddly enough. But a necktie? Just no. I own one only because I have to.

This is 11 years old. Loved that singlet.

I’m debating if I’m going to bleach my hair and beard.

FML

I had this black singlet with white piping for years until the Spandex gave out. Can’t get that one anymore. I miss it.

Thus was a long time ago but I was very pleased with it.

Deep question. Truth. Equity. Accountability. The ability to live authentically without fear. Also would like to be able to have mental health challenges discussed more openly. As someone who has tried to unalive myself, we could do much better.

To the lovely bikini clad buxom ladies with new accounts messaging me: I am hella gay. Kinsey 6 gay. Your décolletage will not entice me to reply so just don’t message me.

Hookup apps. I’ve had nothing but catfish, bots and grief. Deleted them all and I’m not going back.

Journaling. Letter writing. Basically writing anything by hand. It’s so mindful.

Currently at work after a week of PTO. Then it’s a full week of chorus related activities. Not got much else going on right now.

Made a pan of caramel corn. This stuff is crack.

Hello from Mr. S in San Francisco.

An IBM Selectric II with the pica serif element.

Crosswords. Been doing them for over 40 years. Picross/Nonograms are a big second then abstract puzzles like nurikabe and KenKen.

Sara Bareilles, Christine Lavin and a bunch of other stuff. But those two are my personal divas.

No food allergies but I live with a vegan and an omnivore who can’t digest milk. So I’ve eaten almost all the cheese and meat analogues on the market.

Getting some food at Taqueria San Miguel before heading home.

Sittin’ poolside at CCBC reading my book.

Welcome to Palm Springs! Can’t believe I got talked into this.

Pepperoni and bacon with six cheese blend.

San Diego County, California.

Caccio e Pepe or a rich spaghetti bolognese.

My housemate at karaoke singing “Freedom” by Pharrell Williams.

Empathy and compassion. I’ve also been told I suck a mean dick.

I’ve lost four pounds this week for a total of 56.4 pounds down from my top weight. I’ve dropped from a 54 waist to 48 and I can fit in 2XL without horrible button gapping. Still no roller coasters but it’ll happen.

By choice. My marriage ending in 2016 broke me in so many ways that I refuse to consider the possibility of letting someone in.

Finally sat down and read a book. This was fun. A nice liberal dash of Scooby Doo mixed with a dash of Scream. I pegged the villain pretty quickly, but it was still a fun ride. It's YA but it's got some good queer representation.

I’ve had a rough day. I need someone to give me a massage and then eat my ass.

Gee thanks, Knott’s Scary Farm. Not helping!!

I’m a member of SAG/AFTRA. Got my card pre merge when I acted in radio dramas.

Because I can’t have nice things I have had to cancel my day trip to Palm Springs tomorrow for Western Xposure. I am livid but there’s not much I can do about it. It’s out of my hands.

New haircut and beard trim. Who dis?

December 2022. I even bleached it.

I spoke Dutch tonight. Not much, but I was understood so I’ll take it as a win.

You’ve seen those photos of a guy in the middle of like six hairy bellies? That. I’d also like to be spit roasted at least once.

I’m by myself tonight. Wish I knew someone who’d want to come over and let me bone them.

The 1974 version of “Murder on the Orient Express” followed by “Psycho”.

Some FCF after I watched a @massagekub.bsky.social video.
