Journal Entry: Tues. June 7th 2022
The Thoughts and Times of Scott A. Vancil

Tuesday, June 7th 2022
I wake up. I try to wake up Shelby, because she wanted to wake up at 10. She's not having it, so I go back to sleep too. I dream about being in love with an old schoolmate. I wake up, struggling to breathe. I get up and brew a Crowded Barrel Coffee Co. EleaNOIR Barrel-Rested Coffee in my Powell's Bookstore mug.
I journal and post on Vocal.
Then I transfer a bunch of files to my external hardrive and delete the old ones on my computer. It still only leaves me 35 gigabytes to play with. Not enough to constantly do my YouTube Content. I don't know what to do. I need a new computer with more space. This one is from 2011, and it's struggling to keep up.
I make a sandwich: toasted English Muffins; lathered veganaise; peppered baby spinach; plopped, juicy tomato slice; plooped oven-roasted Tofurkey slices; smacked Vegan Follow-Your-Heart Gouda Cheese; and blasted hot sauce- a fuckton.
I feast.
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 Self-Titled album also known as The Black Album. Then I listen to, 'Load.'
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 set up the room to film, and then put in Big Bourbon Beard Balm and Bourbon Cologne Balm.
I film an episode of Java Junkies with Crowded Barrel Coffee Co.'s Send Spicy Nubes, Willet Rye, Barrel-Rested Coffee sourced from Las Nubes, Nicaragua and roasted by Project Buna. I finish filming and drink the rest after putting the equipment away. Shelby helped me out by being my cameraperson. I have a lot pain filming and can barely stand. I pop an extra strength Tylenol after.
After that, I check the mail and take the trash out, before Journaling.
We go to Mission Wine & Spirits and I get Burnside Portland Oregon Quercus Garryana, Batch Finished, Goose Hollow RSV Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Oregon Oak Casks.
We stop at Whole Foods and get some things including TTLA's.
We go home and feast, watching many episodes of Sex Education.
I have a couple of glasses of Burnside Straight Bourbon.
Then we watch The Girl Next Door (2007), one of my favorite movies. Watching it as a 34 year-old (I'm a very different person), I don't like how a lot of it is kind of Anti-Sexwork. Like if she doesn't want to be in it that's fine, but his holier-than-thou attitude is kind of insufferable. I still love it though. It's like an updated version of Pretty Woman. Everyone is so great in this. Well cast.
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.
Then we go to bed.
And that's it.
That's my day.
That's Tuesday, June 7th 2022
