Journal Entry: Thurs. June 9th 2022

Thursday, June 9th 2022

I wake up and call CVS to get my meds straightened out.

Then I brew a Crowded Barrel Coffee Co. Send Spicy Nubes, Willet Rye Barrel-Rested Coffee in my mustache mug. I get a call from the SSA about my disability asking some more questions. I should have told him about the possible Cancer I guess, but that's not why I applied for disability.

I sip my coffee and journal, posting on Vocal.

I post Chapters 24-26 of my novel The Rise and Crumble of The Gingerbread Man on Patreon.

I make a sandwich: toasted English Muffins; lathered vegan butter; peppered baby spinach; plopped, juicy tomato slice; plooped Impossible Sausage Patty; smacked Vegan Follow-Your-Heart Gouda Cheese; drizzled, sizzling, smoky Tempeh Bacon; dropped, toasted Just Egg Fold; sprinkled salt, black pepper, and red cayenne pepper; and blasted hot sauce- a fuckton.

I feast.

Fucking mind-blowing.

But I don't stop there: I have a banana, a mandarin orange, and raw almonds.

While I feast I watch a new episode of The Whiskey Vault on YouTube.

I do the dishes while listening to Metallica's, 'Garage, Inc.,' and, 'S&M.'

I journal.

Then I shower with Bourbon, 2-n-1, Head and Shoulders, Shampoo/Conditioner. Then I lather myself with Duke Cannon Buffalo Trace Bourbon Soap and rinse. I then smother myself with body wash: Duke Canon THICK Bourbon Bodywash. After rinsing I rinse my hair. Then I use my Duke Cannon Buffalo Trace Bourbon Plant-Based Beard Wash. I rinse. I dry and comb my red beard with its elegant white streaks.

I put on Axe Apollo Fresh Stick, because they were out of Phoenix.

I'm in a lot of pain today, so I take an extra strength Tylenol, have a good cry (Because I can barely walk or stand; I'm so weak), and lie down and listen to Metallica's, 'St. Anger.'

Shelby and I go to CVS to pick up my meds and then BevMo to get Highland Park 12, because I was in the mood for a scotch whisky.

I drink a blueberry/spinach smoothie with protein powder, cinnamon, and agave, and eat carrots and raw almonds.

I brush my teeth; then brew Crowded Barrel Coffee Co. EleaNOIR Barrel-Rested Coffee in my Z's Divine Espresso Mug.

I sip and Journal, listening to Metallica's, 'Death Magnetic.'

Shelby and I watch the rest of Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

I have a glencairn of Highland Park 12 Scotch Whisky.

I order Blazin' Burgers and get a double with thousand island and savage fries. The postmate goes all over the place and ends up in the wrong place, so I meet her halfway.

We feast.

We flip through everything and can't decide what to watch.

We watch half of Girl, Interrupted, but I get tired.

Then I shower with Bourbon, 2-n-1, Head and Shoulders, Shampoo/Conditioner. Then I lather myself with Duke Cannon Buffalo Trace Bourbon Soap and rinse. I then smother myself with body wash: Duke Canon THICK Bourbon Bodywash. After rinsing I rinse my hair. Then I use my Duke Cannon Buffalo Trace Bourbon Plant-Based Beard Wash. I rinse. I dry and comb my red beard with its elegant white streaks.

While I shower I think about having to tell my brother I have a Cancer, because my parents are on vacation. And then telling my parents when they get back just how bad it is. I know I don't know for sure yet. But the feeling gets to me.

I put on Axe Apollo Fresh Stick, because they were out of Phoenix.

I lie in bed and listen to Julien Baker's, 'Turn Out the Lights,' on Spotify.

This has been a really bad pain day.

And that's it .

That's my day.

That's Thursday, June 9th 2022
