When I grow up, I’m gonna be red dye 40 in a sunbeam for Jesus.

Hello! My name is sam, and I am 2% less fat than I was last month. Yay! I’m thinking about getting a new Renpho smartscale, one with handles. 

Today I got a message to renew my PMI-PMP cert, and that my PMI membership has expired. So whatever, I was just going to renew my cert without the membership, then sticker shock!

It’s 60$ USD to renew with membership and 150$ USD without. PMI membership is 169$ USD per year, I believe.

I’m so fuckin’ over you, PMI. But until I can make a living from my creative life, I cannot tell you to eff off. But trust me, when the time comes, it will feel soooo good! I’m looking forward to it!

Last month, I learned about Labour Day in Belarus and the Worker and Kolkhoz Woman statue! Thank you, handsome co-worker!!!

He had sent me a few jokes months back. I’d planned to post them, then forgot, and when I remembered, all our messages had disappeared from the app.

Now There’s Where Dad Was

• Takoradi, Ghana
• Dakar, Senegal
• Santa Cruz De Tenerife, Spain
• Funchal, Portugal
• Montreal, Canada

I live my travel life through Dad’s photos.

Do you think about what you want to do when you retire? I’d go back to school to study whatever I fancy. Take random courses and never get a degree.

I’d also start a club, Poetry Writing for Parishioners and Prisoners. All are welcome.

Goat Baby and I went for a talk-and-walk.  After eating a few apple slices and alfalfa sprouts from my pocket, he said, “I feel sorry for you because you have no boyfriend and your sex work life is a bust.”

“My sex work life is just fine, and I will find a partner who totally gets me, is intelligent, and funny. Or he will find me!” I smile at the thought and enjoy the feel of the sun.

“I mean…” He pauses to inspect a lost baseball cap. “…how unlucky do you have to be. And as you age, pickings are only gonna get worse.”

“I’m confident he will show up soon.”

He throws his head back laughing, “I imagine you desperately scrounging around in the Garbage Dump of Men for the least undesirable one.”

“I don’t want to talk with you anymore.”

“Whoever you get, he’d better love goats.”

I could really use some Blue Gummi Sharks right now! And some gummy worms. (heavy sigh)

How’s your week so far? There’s something else I wanted to tell you, but it slipped my mind. ugh!!!

Oh! WordPress has this new thing called On This Day that notifies me about old posts. The first one I noticed was on May 29. For some reason, it doubles the count.
