The Thoughts and Times of Scott A. Vancil

Wednesday, June 8th 2022
I wake and call the pharmacy, but they tell me there's a problem with my medication assistance. I call Sunovion and straighten it out. Apparently I sent my application too early? That seems stupid to me, but they processed it for me. Thank god.
I brew Crowded Barrel Coffee Co. EleaNOIR Barrel-Rested Coffee in my mustache mug.
I submit to a role on Actor's Access.
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.
I do the dishes while listening to Metallica's, 'Reload.' I'm not loving Load or Reload at all.
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 heat filtered, water to 203 Degrees Fahrenheit in my black, Fellow EKG Gooseneck Kettle and steep two teaspoons of Hojicha Roasted Green Tea for five minutes in my Mike Wazowski mug. I purchased the tea at The Tea Table online. I highly recommend them.
Shelby watches Love Island (UK), as I journal.
I drink a blueberry/spinach smoothie and eat carrots and raw almonds.
I brush my teeth and then brew Crowded Barrel Coffee Co. Send Spicy Nubes, Willet Rye Barrel-Rested Coffee in my Z's Divine Espresso mug. I make a TikTok drinking the coffee and post it everywhere.
I enjoy the rest of the coffee and journal. There was a sale on video games, so I downloaded Persona 5 Strikers and Baldur's Gate I & II and saved over seventy dollars. Only spent 30.
Shelby makes spaghetti for herself.
I pour some Burnside Bourbon for myself in a glencairn.
We watch Obi-Wan on Disney+, Ms. Marvel on Disney+, and the last two episodes of Season 3 of Sex Education on Netflix.
I pour another bourbon.
Then I order Something Vegan. I get the Carbonara, and Shelby gets some fries.
I feast.
Shelby and I have a serious talk about the possibility of me dying. She needs to be prepared for the worst. We cry and hold each other.
We watch half of Forgetting Sara Marshall. When I first saw this movie I couldn't take it, because I just got done with a bad break up and my heart was still hurting. I soon liked it after I had healed by the power of time. I'm still waiting for a full version of the Dracula Musical.
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.
Then we go to bed.
And that's it.
That's my day.
That's Wednesday, June 8th 2022
