Modern Day Mix Tape 2
For me, I travel through time and space through music. Music is my time travelling companion. The force that opens the portal. It is and always has been music. I am able to be moved from here to there most easily through what I hear. Music is how I travel through time. Music is my first love and my last love. I have had many loves in between where it started and where it will end, but it always has been and always will be music for me. My one true. That and Jesus, which goes without saying but I should say it. Considering Jesus loves music. "Don't be a prude- not when it comes to music" is something I think I have heard him say....

I'm Okay With Me
For a long time growing up I wasn’t comfortable with me. I wanted to be a real man like everyone else around me appeared to be. I wanted muscles, I wanted to have kids, I wanted a wife, I wanted to do everything that would rid me of the desire that continually haunted me not to mention that I was bow legged. The fact that I was picked on and called names by family members made it no better. Even into my adult life I asked for this life that I was in just to start over. Knowing that I knew who to avoid who to stay away from who I needed to talk to and who I didn’t.

The Hidden Journey
The life of an empath is a lonely journey. Picking up on everyone and everything is exhausting! So much so you may view yourself as the victim, or think you are depressed, anxious or an introvert. If you identify with any of these it does not necessarily mean you are an empath.

What is Nostradamus’ prophecy for 2023?
Michel de Nostredame. Control Design Nostradamus’ letter (epistle) to King Henry II contains a remarkable amount of detail that parallels the collapse of the Soviet Union in late 1991. He even predicts that this miserable daughter of the land of the North Wind (Russia), the USSR, will eventually expand following the Holocaust, a war against fascist fatherlands (he specifically names the fascist fatherlands as German, Roman, and Spanish), and a cold war against “the children of opposite ideas.” (18 January 1918–18 August 1991). This is a hazy but true prophecy from Nostradamus, in my opinion.

How I Survived the Pandemic as a Porn Addict
As an addict, my biggest test during the global pandemic of the past two years did not come from the fear of contracting COVID strains, the anxiety of losing multiple jobs and income streams, or even the frustration (and mounting anxiety) of addressing a chronic back injury I walked into the pandemic with. It was simply being home alone. Being alone, as an addict with plenty of time on my hands.

I'm not ready for fall and neither is California
I’m going to start this whole thing by saying that summer is my favorite time of year. To me summer means adventure, opportunity, fun and freedom. I always find myself getting sad when summer is over. I'm not in school anymore and I have not been for years but those sad feelings I had when school would start up again after a fun and relaxing summer have stayed with me. I know that summer is not technically over but most of the things that make summer my favorite time of year are. Unofficially summer goes from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Since Labor Day passed not too long ago, we are now culturally in the season of fall or Autumn If that is what you like to call it. I don’t keep it a secret that summer is my favorite season and fall is my least favorite. I hate the way the darkness of fall comes in to destroy the brightness of summer. I also hate how everything becomes pumpkin flavored. For example I saw pumpkin flavored butter in the store the other day. I have no idea who thought that was a good idea. I have to say that my absolute least favorite thing about fall is that it gets dark very early. Well here in California the weather is letting us know loud and clear that summer is not over yet. Just recently California is experienced a major heat wave. It was absolutely miserable for a week. Especially since I don't have air conditioning at my house. I have not been enjoying the extreme heat by any means of the word. However, it makes me smile just a little bit to know that the weather is also protesting the changing of the seasons by turning up the heat to the hottest it has been in a while. It felt like the middle of a very hot July when I set foot outside. To make myself perfectly clear I do not like the extreme heat but I do like the fact that it does not feel like fall at all yet. Also while I’m already ranting about this, I do not know if it is just the people I follow but I see a lot of pro fall and Halloween posts on social media. Meanwhile I'm mourning the loss of summer 2022. I always find it hard to wrap up summer and this year has been no different. However, it looks like I've got the weather on my side this year even if I do not have a lot of people on my side. However I’m in the right state for being a lover of summer because when it comes to California it may be September but it is definitely not sweater weather and I'm still drinking iced coffee most mornings before work. It is still flip-flops and shorts weather. The good news is that it has been getting cooler but it is still warm enough to keep my sweatpants, jeans and jackets put away for a little while longer. It looks like it will be shorts weather for a while. I do not know how long it will be until I have to get my pants and jackets out of the closet. However I can tell you that I have memories of wearing shorts to a pumpkin patch in October and having plenty of warm days even when it is officially fall. The stores may be ready for Halloween but mentally I’m still hanging on to the bliss of summer. I'm thankful that the weather is cooler now but I still find it amusing that we had a heatwave at the same time as the unofficial ending of summer.

Broken bread on the water.
I look out at the water from sitting on my patio an enjoyable moment as I am watching the activity of the birds. I see the bread I threw to the geese all was gone but leaving a remaining piece still on the water flowing as I see a black goose now plucking at the bread. He was the minority of the group or we can say the only black colored goose on the water. I had broken bread for a few loaves of bread I received from an organization called helping hands I believe or someone had given me a least a dozen loaves of bread. I shared the loaves with the geese and the smaller group of mallards. The geese took changes each one plucking each taking turns with the flowing bread remaining I guess I did not break it into small enough pieces for one duck to handle. The black goose has always made me wonder when it showed up while the geese were moving about on the water sometime in coordination but the black feathered goose would swim alone and separate from the others as if the monarchy of the geese.

Heaux Confessionals: The SINtroduction | Chapter 6 - The Law of Supply and Demand
The Law of Supply and Demand Escorting for me has usually been few and far between for a number of reasons. The main reason is because I usually made enough money juggling my other jobs that it is not necessary. Secondly, if it were my only job and I did it full-time, I would be bored to tears as it usually meant just alot of sitting around. But the main reason and the main reason for this commentary?

000 - Introductions?
Let me start by saying one thing, one absolute rule to always follow when working with me - I genuinely know nothing, and everything I say I do know I know because I have experienced it. This means I am the worst example to follow, and above all else I must always ask - never emulate my stupidity. You can learn a lot more by watching someone piss on the electric fence than by doing it - I've tried both.
