The Thoughts and Times of Scott A. Vancil

By Scott A. VancilPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

Friday, May 6th 2022

I wake up and brew a Bones Coffee Co. Mustachio, Pistachio Flavored Coffee into my Z's Divine Espresso mug. I journal and post on Vocal.

I listen to Meg Myers' new single, 'Children of Light II,' on Spotify. Then I listen to, 'HTIS.'

I post on Patreon and look for roles on Actor's Access. After, I check the EDD site.

We don't have any bread, so I eat snacks: two peanut butter Keto bites; carrots; dried apple slices; a lightly-salted, rice cake; a banana; a mandarin orange; and a handful of raw almonds.

I do the dishes while listening to Pink Floyd's, 'Wish You Were Here.'

I shower with Bourbon, 2-n-1, Head and Shoulders, Shampoo/Conditioner. I use a bar of soap called Man Bar that smells like Taco Bell's meat seasoning. 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 put in Big Bourbon Beard Balm and Cologne Balm. I heat filtered, Vegan water to 203 Degrees Fahrenheit in my black, Vegan Fellow EKG Gooseneck Kettle and steep two teaspoons of Vegan Hojicha Green Tea for two vegan minutes in my Mike "Vegan" Wazowski mug. I purchased the Vegan tea at The Tea Table online. I highly recommend them. Vegan.

Shelby comes home.

I eat pita chips and red pepper hummus, carrots, a blueberry spinach smoothie, and a handful of raw almonds.

Shelby and I watch The Flight Attendant.

We go out to Mission Wine & Spirits to get Laphroaig Quarter Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

We come home and I film Poetry Dram featuring a Standard Drip-Droplian Sonnet, 'The House of Heartless Hearts Harks Nothing.'

Shelby watches Selling Sunset, and I film a promotional TikTok and put it on all social media.

Then we watch Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle.

I toast an English Muffin in our new, four-slotted toaster, and spread on some vegan butter. I plop some spinach down on that thing and then a warmed, Oven-Roasted Tofurkey slice. I slide on some vegan Follow-Your-Heart Smoked Gouda Cheese. Then I sizzle up some smoked Tempeh Bacon and put them on top. I toast a Just Egg fold and mount it on top of the bacon. Topped with salt, black pepper, and Red Cayenne Pepper. Then I load it up with a fuckton of hot sauce. And Voila. A Vegan sandwich so veganly.

I feast.

Shelby is high and has the munchies. She gets veggie grill. I get the steakhouse burger and fries. Shelby gets orange cauliflower and sweet potato fries. We watch Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay. Not as good as the first one. So many racist jokes. But still entertaining.

I shower with Bourbon, 2-n-1, Head and Shoulders, Shampoo/Conditioner. I use a bar of soap called Man Bar that smells like Taco Bell's meat seasoning. 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 Friday, May 6th 2022
