October 20th, 2026: Studying today, I woke up at 7:30am and got out of bed a bit later, I had cereal, brushed my teeth, and had coffee in this Denny’s mug Waleran had, I had not much to do today except at 10:00am I packed up my backpack with my laptop and started walking to my old college, I got into the busy building to walk through it and spotted Luigi with a friend of his, I said hi to Luigi and talked with his friend a bit but I never recalled spotting her at mass. I continued walking and then went upstairs in the library to the super obscure branch to open up my computer and start programming. I got the first page done and then worked on the second page and one test involving empty username and password fields assert an error message. I got that done and left by 12:30pm to walk back home, I tried getting on my desktop to play modded minecraft but the wifi was extremely slow and so I decided to depart from my apartment for Tuesday night dinner, I started day 30 of my 40 day rosary for life at 4:15pm and then walked over to the Catholic center and finished it up just as I arrived at 4:35pm. I got in and walked around a bit to see Agaw. I talked a little bit with her and then I joked:
“You can’t get rid of me that easily!”
I saw Kaufman in a different room studying, I went up early and saw Agaw in the chapel praying so I sat next to her, thinking it would be kinda funny, I prayed the 2nd day of the Saint Jude novena I went up to go to the bathroom and when I got back there was another woman who I remember as this Sheboygan, Wisconsin woman from the Catholic center dance, I got in between them and then prayed until mass started, I noticed as I sat down that both women crossed their legs away from me almost the entire mass, I was furious that they’re humiliating me and making me feel like a weirdo. I spotted Oriang, Sixes, Luigi, Lewis’ ex-girlfriend, and Bernarda in the choir, and many other people including: Sixes’ friend, Amethyst, The Honduran and his girlfriend, Melany, Rita, Nikki, Sideburns, Lauren, Melany, Nash, Rita, Nikki, Cronstedt, Alley, Sideburns’ cousin, Sideburns’ cousin’ mom, Patchbeard, Telemachus, Swifte, Morgado, Kalifornia, and a few others. I remember being upset enough with Agaw that I intentionally ignored her and saw her shock when she first turned to shake my hand. I prayed a bit after mass and then went down for dinner tonight. Sideburns' cousin’s mom cooked us tacos, or rather the chicken, steak, and possibly some rice. Agaw came up to me and asked:
“Gemerson are you doing good?”
To which I told her:
“No.”
And I didn’t elaborate, but I told her at the dance I spotted Kateri and told her the story about asking her friend to dance which caused the whole event, Agaw and the Sheboygan woman were laughing at the end but Agaw asked me:
“Gemerson, do you think you’re ready to date?”
I knew this was an insult and I said:
“No, because I don’t have a job yet.”
I went to get tacos before her and sat down at a table alone, a bit later Agaw sat at a different table with the Honduran and his girlfriend, Markus and his girlfriend, and Markus’ brother, at 6:30pm, saw Sideburns’ crush talking with Lauren. Amethyst sat with me and then she went back to get more stuff before I got Telemachus to sit across from me, Amethyst came back and the two talked with Telemachus talking about something good happening to him related to the US Military, I think a promotion. The table filled up including the 30 year old woman I sat across from last time talking about her art work. Amethyst told me that she and I were partners for signing up for SEEK and how she wasn’t at the Catholic center for most of that year due to having mono one semester and a different sickness another semester. I left quite late and enjoyed myself, heading back home, taking a shower. I got on a looksmaxxing website and looked at the best of section, reading a thread on hair tips and learning that I should apply shampoo to my scalp and apply conditioner to my hair instead of how I do it as applying both to both, there was also the methods they provided for testing what type of hair you have by adding a follicle of hair to a cup of water and seeing how it floats. A bit later I fell into the sin of lust =(, I was in bed and was almost not motivated enough to get out but got a pen, a page, and some tape and wrote this sign:


This is to follow Father Ironside’s advice for those of you who only read some of my posts, use the search command and target this thread.

October 21st, 2026: A small amount of studying today, I woke up, had breakfast, and then brushed my teeth before getting on the computer, I opened up soyjak.blog to see nothing but this message:
<I took the site down just in case since the vulnerability got leaked before the patch. Some websites that use PHP decided to stay up and I was about to be one of those but since it's just a 1 hour wait until the patch I decided to JSID to be on the safer side
<The exploit is called PHP2Shell and it can allow an attacker to have full control of server just like the 4chan hack of last year. The chance of an attack being mild is very very low and it would likely be done by a malicious actor
<So instead of dealing with that, I'll just wait 4 hours (and you should too). Stop being addicted to the internet and social media and do something else while your favorite internet websites that use PHP patch this shit
<This is currently the bunker for the Shroom Steam Community :: Group :: The Soy Shack (https://steamcommunity.com/groups/soyshackers) or https://wikijakia.xyz/ if it's still online even doe these wiki websites use PHP
<sloppyjakky is a noob
soybooru.com was up but KiwiFarms wasn’t, I had my coffee and then waited a bit before getting on the websites after the PHP vulnerability was patched. I did one programming question from the 3rd file as I was stuck on the next one on the second file. I gave up shortly in and continued writing and had more issues with my extremely slow wifi speed on the desktop, I tested the speed with the laptop near the desktop and the laptop was much faster, direct ethernet connection didn’t work either, I went into the settings to have it prefer the 5Ghz band instead of the 2.4Ghz band yet it kept defaulting to the 2.4Ghz band despite a 5Ghz band existing. I had to take some photos of my work from home space for my upcoming job and fill out a security form for a DUO question. Early on in the morning Abscond mentioned that a “certain Italian tax manager” would be doing something in the pre-game show so I texted her at 12:38pm:
>Which game are you singing at?
I had this YouTube video recommended to me by this channel called GirlfriendGuide4Guys called: The Nice Guy Curse and remembered the woman in it using a figure of Batman with a statue of Saint Raphael the Archangel and using zebras as a metaphor for people, with some zebras being nice while others being mean but the mean zebras shouldn’t repel you from being nice. I wonder what it would taste like to hunt and cook a zebra I didn’t have lunch until quite a bit later as I did a cup of chicken ramen, I decided to start walking to adoration very early today and started praying day 31 of my 40 day rosary novena at 4:34pm, I spotted this Halloween decoration on my walk at 4:49pm:

At 4:51pm, I saw a Jewish Orthodox couple with matching hoodies which read: Talia, and Rabbi Lev, kinda weird but whatever. I completed my rosary at 5:01pm and then saw this Jewish dad in a minivan watching his four kids trying out this toy three-wheeler in the middle of the street. I noticed they were all talking in English. At 5:07pm I exited the Orthodox Jewish neighborhood to the liberal Jewish neighborhood due to the increase in Trump derangement syndrome:

Keep in mind this is one of the richest neighborhoods in the city, I genuinely despise these leeches so much. I walked to the beach and went down the long path and walked from the south dock to the north dock along the lakeshore, there was this weird formation where some waves would have a bit of water caught in a lip to sit there. I checked my phone to see a response from Abscond at 4:46pm:
<Game #1. Friday night. I’m in the pregame show
i walked back up the stairs and then did some more walking around before arriving at the adoration church at 6:00pm. I ended up completing Book XII of Saint Augustine’s Confessions before adoration started and noticed Rita across the aisle, sadly the contemporary slopsong started before adoration. I prayed day 3 of the Saint Jude novena. I got to Book XII of Confessions and spotted a punctuation error:

The space should be to the right of the comma instead of the left. I completed Confessions during Eucharistic adoration and then prayed normally, there were no altarboys for adoration but when adoration ended, Cliffe, Jeremiah, Lancelot, and Jordan went up into the room to get changed into the acolyte robes for mass, I saw Rita go up for the reading for today dressed quite informally for traditional Catholic standards. I didn’t go up for the Eucharist and at the end, Father Malachi announced the social would be held in the basement instead of outside so I directed more people there like Von, Maaenboodhoo, Adam III, Teddy, Melany, Rita, Nikki, the acolytes, and others. I messaged Abscond back at 8:56pm with:
>Singing the national anthem?
I talked some with Von and then Maaenboodhoo and he got me over to these two women who we he was talking with and it broke up to me talking to the tiny one for a bit, she told me she’s a nurse and lives right near Wauwatosa, Wisconsin and she’s from St Paul, Minneapolis. The tiny one wasn’t interested in me so I cut my losses quickly and ended up talking to Rita for a bit as she was excited I’m heading to SEEK again, Lancelot joined our circle and talked with us a bit, he’s never been to SEEK before but isn’t planning on going with Cliffe’s group to it and Rita encouraged him to sign up soon. I left shorty afterwards and noticed this one woman’s veil was just an off-white scarf, I didn’t talk to her but I shook her and her friend’s hand. I got on the bus at roughly 9:20pm and saw Mercurius and his girlfriend on the bus and stood near them, I told them that I finished up my Saint Augustine’s Confessions and asked who Mercurius’ girlfriend’s confirmation saint is, she said she didn’t have one yet so I recommended she go with Saint Ignatius of Antioch, Mercurius told her a bit about him but he got this detail wrong about him: Mercurius said that Saint Ignatius of Antioch was a disciple of Saint Polycarp of Smyrna, who was in turn a disciple of Saint John the Evangelist, I told him that they were both direct disciples of Saint John the Evangelist. As Mercurius' girlfriend had never read the book I finished today before, I decided to lend it to her to read but warned her it was an AI generated translation. I got off at the same stop as them but went different ways, I checked my phone and at
9:31pm Abscond texted me back:
<I’m not singing. I’m field cast
I got inside and took my shower doing the techniques I learned yesterday. I tried going to sleep but Waleran was in the living room on his phone and playing some absolutely garbage country song that I could hear while he was showering.

October 22nd, 2026: Filming, I woke up, had breakfast, made myself coffee, and then talked a bit with Josippon over text about coming over to his place to film. I got on a call with Josippon and he told me his story of getting in a car crash, he was driving to Watertown, Wisconsin when he got rear ended by a car with 3 drunk people in it and it destroyed his car, their excuse was that their designated driver was very tired so they just had to drive at 100 miles per hour on the road I got dressed in my tan pants, my brown plaid button-up, and my usual blazer that was fraying at the edges, I walked to WingStop to had garlic parmesan and hot cajun rub boneless wings for lunch along with celery and carrot sticks. I then walked to Josippon’s apartment and arrived there exactly at 12:30pm. Josippon was a few minutes late to getting back to his apartment but we walked up to grab some film stuff. We went into the basement first to the media room to play some table soccer for a bit of stock footage, then moving over to this decrepit room where I would play the character of a Christian transhumanist, he sent me this script to practice:
<I do believe that we were created with a purpose, with a design.
<Yet we are merely the sprouting seeds to a great species.
<We learned to get up and walk, yet there was no biological reason that we should've.
<We fought and made an active choice to lift ourselves up from our bellies with flabby fin-like appendages.
<We forced it, through our choices, to gain a bone structure and support our frames.
<Like the first walkers, who rebelled against nature to reach the divine, we have created our current electric dream.
<We are currently cultural cyborgs.
<We have eliminated the issue of boundaries for our communication, we have eliminated the need to live through history to make it.
<We have learned to make this technology so that we can modify ourselves in the near future.
<Like walking, it was never part of our original makeup, but it will help lead us to our final one.
<The intended design.
<Every species is fighting for it, but we are the closest.
<Our creator has created us as a final form, but we must fight to reach it.
<We have fought, we have sabotaged and we have enslaved the species that seek the final form
I couldn’t memorize it all in time but just had me film first a scene with a metal ring I found on the ground and then had me improvise a scene where I ranted about other scientists not taking me seriously, then he had me grab this plastic wrapping off the ground and filmed me with it held to my face like I was a murder victim at a crime scene investigation:

And then he had me do things like nervously looking around. I was asked to give a vocal recording for the script he sent. I walked out with him and he and I walked and talked for some more footage for the project. I talked with him about the Randy Fine situation and how I described him as a “broken minutewatch” and he said:
“I’d describe myself as a Christian Zionist.”
While talking about Dan Bilzerian competing for Randy Fine’s Florida congressional seat. I noticed he was recording me but I just kept acting normal, I picked up some trash and pointed out these animal guts on the old road, we walked and spotted a deer on the path:

We walked pretty close to it but spotted a White homeless man under the bridge and we turned around, we walked back to his apartment and he told me that he doesn’t like drinking as much now due to the accident with the drunk driver and he talked about an Elijah Muhammad image that he considered extremely blasphemous that he needed to show to me for how disgusting it was, he couldn’t find it instantly and I said goodbye to get a blackberry Dr Pepper from the convenience store before heading out. I walked back home and got on the computer to eat more Pringles chips and played All The Mods 11. I have the goal of recreating the old brick pyramid from an extremely early version of Minecraft in full scale, keeping in mind the bottom layer is 127 x 127 brick blocks. I got off and continued to browse the internetz From MathSciNet I found out Tang’s Erdős number is 4. Also from my “investigative journalism” I found out where in northern California he’s from: Berkeley, California, I was thinking of some rural town like Willow Creek, California. I ended up getting on a facetime call with this bigger woman from Chicago, Illinois. She and I talked and I kept trying to get her to go to the thrift store to buy a long skirt or dress but she said she’s more of a hoodie and pants type of woman. The call ended after an hour and we texted back and forth a bit before I took a shower. I started day 32 of my 40 day rosary for life at 10:54pm and completed it at 11:15pm then prayed day 4 of the Saint Jude novena.

October 23rd, 2026: Work today, I got up and made cereal, brushed my teeth, then had coffee, I called my mom at 9:01am to discuss picking up the car and it was awful, my mom kept insisting I get the car until just before I started work despite needing to go to their other office to pick up my work items. I was informed I would get my sister’s car for free and because of my mom’s long drive to work, she’d need her fuel efficient car. I got off and spend some hours playing All The Mods 11 until 12:00pm when I cooked ramen with an egg in it while dealing with Waleran and his girlfriend being here. I got on the bus at 12:45pm and took it downtown. I started day 33 of my 40 day rosary for life at 1:26pm, got on the bus, then completed it at 1:47pm, I passed this decrepit parking space which was being used for the World Series, charging $40 for a parking lot. I walked down and spotted some other ushers tailgating work. Matthew D since 2021 who I broke for was at the pre game party and Harriet since 2019 was insisting we ate all the cookies, I ended up having 3 and multiple cups of milk due to her. I talked with Matthew D and got assigned to the smoke area again when I was in at 2:35pm. At 2:38pm I took this picture:

I spotted Daniel S at 2:43pm who said he worked the last 3 days 12 hour shifts back to back he complained about a manager from Delaware North who was mean to him after he transferred to being an usher because he didn’t like $10 an hour then called her a:
“Dyke ass bitch.”
We moved some tables for Christina the supervisor and then Daniel S sat down for a bit. I walked around and saw Tracy since 2026 who helped me that one time at 2:55pm then Todd H in the bleachers on his phone. I was on my phone for a while to type. I went back at 3:24pm to see Nathan M. Bob since 2025 said I reminded him of a famous actor, I mentioned one but he said an older one but I mentioned the golfer and he said that was it. Kim since 2026 showed up at 3:30pm, Ivonne L was also there. At 3:37pm this giant cart with lots of sushi rolled past, not for us =(. I saw Emi A-C at 3:40pm but wasn’t assigned with him, I saw Christine announce there were 45,000 people in the stadium and that I’d be over at Left Field north scanning tickets with Ivonne L. As I walked there I spotted Derek M and Nathan M and realized they’re father and son both distributing the items. Tickets opened at 4:00pm and Andreas the cop was assigned security with us, occasionally handing out baseball cards to young boys. I spotted Marie come in and said hi to her. During the slight bit of downtime, I talked to Andress, she told me she’s been a cop for 13 years and security for 10 years at the stadium despite looking to be in her mid-20s. Adam was working across from me and Thomas R was my manager. Plenty of people came through my gate, there was a long wave, a short die out, and then a hit later Thomas R told me he would have me stay behind so I’d get sent on break after the national anthem. The game started at 7:00pm and then I went to get a cheeseburger with a sprite then went down to the break room to watch. Todd H on break was in the terrace and described it as being super cold and I am glad I had my jacket. I went back to the doors I was assigned to guard and I got a very comfortable folding chair to sit on. A few people were watching from outside including this well dressed guy who Thomas R guessed to be a limo driver watching from a television inside. Thomas R let me swap to another set of doors with a different woman usher at it. I was able to watch on that, I was allowed to go to the bowl for an inning and watch the game there, I got some high five and then when I went back, saw a fat old White guy sitting in my seat talking with Thomas R, I talked with Thomas R for a bit and I found out he’s from Longmeadow, Massachusetts but he’s lived here for over 30 years now and has been a supervisor since 2019 and working here since 2014. Dave was Thomas R’s friend who he’s always let in without a ticket. We won the game and people came out but then there was the call for the play so it was the Milwaukee Brewers 3 to Tampa Bay Rays 2. I had lots of people come out of my gate and did a lot of high fiving. I was eventually dismissed by Thomas R at 11:10pm and ran to the bus stop, I got on at 11:23pm and took the bus all the way to my transfer. I messaged Warner on the bus:
>Bruh
>I have to cover a place with no access to a tv
<Oof RIP
>Nevermind Thomas R let me watch at the bowl for an inning.
<Thomas is a good supervisor. Real nice guy
>Yes
I got off and walked past a group of 4 ghetto Black women dressed promiscuously which irritated me. I waited for my bus as the day passed…

October 24th, 2026: I rode the bus home and as I got off, I put on my headphones and The Rockafeller Skank was on my Spotify so I ran home to that. I got in, had a beer, took a shower, and then went to sleep…
I woke up at 7:30am and got cereal for breakfast, brushed my teeth, and made coffee for myself, I got on my computer and got on to All The Mods 11 but Minecraft kept crashing at spawn, I went to WingStop for lunch and got 12 wings plus celery and carrots. I got on the bus at 12:45pm and saw that The Salvation Army girl was on it so I sat down next to her and we talked, she told me she’s works on campus but wouldn’t tell me where because then I’d tell Markus, I didn’t have the heart to tell her I hated that Jewish guy. She then got off at her coffee place and I waited for my transfer bus, I day 34 of my 40 day rosary for life at 1:10pm and completed it at 1:35pm. I walked down past another pregame for the employees with Henrietta and Matthew D at it. I had two donuts and then went in and wandered around. At 2:35pm I received my assignment to screen at a busy gate and then go up to the 4th floor to usher there. I went all the way to the second assignment and sat down there for a while, taking a picture and then posting it to Instagram and Snapchat:

I went down at 3:15pm to the meeting place. At 3:19pm, sat down on the ground next to Nathan M. At 3:31pm, Derek M came over to Nathan M with an egg roll to offer him but Nathan M refused, I wish I grabbed one. Ethan S the fat guy arrived at 3:38pm. Adam T, Nathan B, Ivonne L, and Daniel S showed up and then the meeting started at 3:40pm. We first got a group picture and then had our assignments told as we went over, Kim since 2026 was distributing the towels with me and then I got there. Our manager was an older guy and I got the scanners as we saw the lines of people outside. The person scanning tickets next to me was Jeanne B since 2025, she is a retired teacher who taught in Pewaukee and California as an art teacher and a 1st grade teacher from what I overheard of her talking a lot with officer Tietjen, who said his dad wouldn’t take him to the World Series even if his son’s ticket was free. As we got the line of people being scanned in with bags and those in wheelchairs, it was much easier for me. Tietjen was passing out baseball cards from 2024 but he said he was passing out way less than expected so he gave me and Jeanne B the three ones he had: #2 Brice Turang, #10 Sal Frelick, and #24 William Contreras. I put them in my wallet. Some more noticeable people who came in were this old woman in a wheelchair holding up a poster saying it’s her 93rd birthday and it had William Contreras in a heart shape on it. My personal record for people I scanned at once was 6. One time this group of 4 came in and when I scanned just the first one, they went in and I told her she had to wait. He said:
“That’s not how it works.”
I told him it is and he got standoffish, but officer Tietjen was behind me and that would’ve ended horribly for the asshole. The influx died out well before the 7:00pm start time and I was glad, I did pace back and forth behind the gate to stretch my legs and then I was sent on break. Instead of going to the break room downstairs, I went up to buy a hot dog and a lemonade on the 4th floor and the guy working concessions actually gave it to me for free, I sat down on one of those raised bar chair. I took this picture while on break at 7:10pm:

I saw officer Andress wandering around at 7:24pm and waved to her, she waved back. Once my break was almost done, I went to guest relations to get my new assignment. I got assigned section 440 with Denise Z, she taught me a bit more so I’d understand better including how we do the inning sweeps and where to stand. Most of the stuff I dealt with were people tying their sweaters to the railings or putting their beers on them. While asking one guy to get his sweater off the railing, I went back up and this middle-aged Mexican woman said to me:
“I can beat him up if you need it.”
She said it again a bit later and I asked her if she wanted to become an usher but she’s actually a seasonal ticket holder, her husband let me get some Hi-Chew twice during the game. Some police officers including Andress came over to help a dispute with 3 guys being too drunk. A manager came over for a bit and was kind enough to let me get a drink of water then head back. At the end it was 5-4 our favor and it would be so close to being a tie and I really don’t want to work that long and we had to wait for all the people to exit, viewing the extreme levels of filth that were left behind. We congregated towards the stairs waiting for a supervisor to dismiss us. Braulio since 2017 was with us, an old White guy with a white beard and glasses, he’s never had a Hi-Chew before so I gave it to him and described it as being like gum, he enjoyed it. I gave Hi-Chews to Denise Z, and 2 more ushers. We finally got dismissed at 11:30pm and I clocked out, ran to the bus stop, got on at 11:40pm and rode it until the day passed…

October 14th, 2026: I decided to stop the progressive photo count challenge today as it was way too exhausting. I woke up and had cereal, brushed my teeth, then had coffee, I got on my laptop to create a GitHub repository. I checked my emails beforehand to see an email from my soon to be boss asking for a picture for my work ID and then some clarification that I would be working on the indigo team, so I know what the pseudonyms I’ll be assigning to my coworkers shall be now. I got a call from my mom and talked to her, which was mostly her criticizing me for not getting my passport so I could take a trip out of the country between now and then or going to Denver, Colorado, I said I’d rather go to Minneapolis, Minnesota for a trip. The call was mostly my just telling me what I should do. I first tested the program and then had to install a specific Chromium program to get it to work. I then ran it on the Wikipedia page for the War of the First Coalition and it worked for the WaybackMachine and Ghost Archive, it returned an error for Archive.today, and said that Arquivo.pt worked but the link it gave me had a 503 error that had happened multiple times before. At 11:32am I got some messages from Adam II and started the conversation:
<Do you know how to write XPaths for Playwright tests?
<If not take some time on that
>Ok, thanks for the advice!
<Welcome!
<I am just wanting to get you up and running quick
>Ok, all I got to do for the background check is a drug test.
<Nice
<Yeah main thing is focus on learning. I will look up YouTube videos if needed
>Any other topics I should get better at?
<C# and TSQL
<ASP.NET development.
<Angular
<But Angular is low on totempoleBut Angular is low on the totempole
I got some ramen for lunch and then went to the grocery store, getting on the bus at 1:23pm and then went to buy stuff like peanuts for snacking, a gallon of milk, a dozen and a half of eggs, celery, bananas, bread, Yakult, frozen green beans, a bag of cookie cereal, and some other stuff all for $30. I saw these interesting products while shopping:

I got on the bus back at 1:53pm and unpacked my groceries. I worked on the GitHub repo more and wrote in my blog until I checked CatholicMatch and saw that Catherine of Siena created an account and it listed her height at 5’7” and had her bragging about being in a pro-life club at her college plus giving horse riding messages, I blocked her. I got another message at 4:44pm from Adam II which continued the conversation:
<Have you used Cursor?
<I might just make a list of tools for you to checkout
>No, but I just posted my project l've been working on to GitHub.
<Nice
<Ok let me come up with a list so l don't waste your time. In the meantime C# and Sql are good no matter what.
>Thank you very much.
<No problem
I had the last of the leftover pasta for dinner and then got dressed to go to Eucharistic adoration, I got on my grey blazer and white button-down as I walked there praying the rosary. I started day 24 of my 40 day rosary for life at 6:26pm and completed it at 6:51pm. I took this picture on my walk:
View attachment 179632
I encountered Karelusa trying to call Maaenboodhoo, he had on a sleeveless jacket of the Archdiocese’s old logo he thrifted, he gave my knife with my initials engraved back to me. I sat up front for adoration and read book XI of Saint Augustine’s Confessions, I spotted Collum a few rows behind me and most people came for the mass, including more people like Rita and her mom, Quinci, Nikki and her boyfriend, Teddy, Rose and her husband, Cliffe, Jeremiah, Pethuel, Gabriel (now with a beard), Gabriel’s friend, Oriang, the Keralan woman, Sixes, Sixes’ friend, Anders, and Elijah’s mom. I noticed for the sisters that occasionally attend, the old woman with the cane was gone so I think she’s dead. For the homily, Father Malachi did the thing where he walked down to the front to give the homily which irritated my theologically orthodox leanings. After mass there was a campfire and I went out to it, I was one of the first to be able to roast marshmallows. I saw Nikki’s boyfriend talking to Elijah’s mom and asking her what some words were in Spanish. The paper used to accelerate the fire was flying out and burning so we had to back up, I found out that Sixes’ friend is an Eagle Scout. I got my sandwich and then went to talk with the GroupMe chat owner and Karelusa, Karelusa told us that this woman who he was seeing was incredibly mature and said that she might not see this going anywhere (I told him it’s over) and then Cliffe joined us to talk to us about a secret that he eventually spilled as the discipleship house moving into a new building, I don’t think one can build bigger than the current one. Anders, wearing his typical yellow glasses, came over and talked with us a bit. I discussed with Cliffe one day coming over and cooking pan seared steaks for the men at the house, it wouldn’t be Thursday or Friday, and probably not Wednesday nor Tuesday either, so I’m going to do it one Monday. I managed to convince Quinci to roast her marshmallow while she was talking with Jeremiah, Nikki pulled me aside to talk about a leadership opportunity with the Keralan woman but it was a place I can’t reach without a car. I roasted another marshmallow while Cognac was at the fire. It was very awkward but I said hi to Pethuel while he was roasting his marshmallow. I left at 9:18pm and caught the bus home. I took a long time writing in my blog and then finally took a shower late and uploaded my blogpost late.

Are they making you do fingerprinting and shit, I had to do it for the company I'm working with.
It was convenient when I was doing it for my job as I was back home anyway and they had a lot of locations, but they had no locations near my college and I had to drive like an hour to the next major town just to do it
Also lucky you, your company actually gives you reasons to go on corporate trips, I basically have no reason to go anywhere other than back home to see my family

No, Adam II never mentioned it.

There's only 2 locations that are a county away from each other, the one I have to pick up my stuff from is 10 minutes farther.

Also lucky you, your company actually gives you reasons to go on corporate trips, I basically have no reason to go anywhere other than back home to see my family

Wait what, I don't remember mentioning this, you're probably thinking of the county government position I got rejected for.

October 25th, 2026: I narrowly missed my next bus transfer as these cars stopped for a right turn prevented my bus from stopping so I could wave down the bus in front of me. I got this next best alternative and took the one which had me run across 6 blocks, a park, and a bridge over the river to get to my place. I did that and then got in to see a light on, which really set me on edge, I took my shower, had a pilsner beer, and went to sleep with the fan on, but then I just had a severe clog in my nose, I kept blowing and blowing my nose yet there was this weird coldness inside my nostrils that made things painful. I had to take 3 benadryl in order to go to sleep…
And I woke up at 9:30am, my nose wasn’t as stuffy but my sinuses felt noticeably cold. I got up and went to the convenience store to buy milk. I got back and had cereal, brushed my teeth, then got myself some coffee. I got dressed quickly and then walked to the Catholic center for mass, I got seated and the only person I recognized there amongst the 8 parishioners (including me) was Lewis. The priest was an Ugandan guy who told us in his homily that he was personally chosen by Father Aquinas to oversee while he’s at spring retreat. I noticed that he did the first, psalm, and second readings along with the gospel reading as usual, his homily was about giving to the poor and caring for the downtrodden. I was inspired after mass to head to the convenience store and buy some food for the homeless. I left at 11:20pm to the convenience store to see no homeless people begging outside. I got q-tips and a Monster energy for my coffee replacement then got back home to play modded Minecraft a lot. I had ramen with an egg for lunch. At 2:19pm, Abscond messaged the Signal groupchat:
<Behold! Our annual All Saint’s Day Brunch! This year @[woman] and I are cooking up some French toast for our feast. All are welcome. Few are chosen.
I RSVP’d and sent her a DM asking for the address but she never replied back, not even opening it. Later at 5:24pm, Bonaventure talked about the Halloween procession with this message:
<Blessed Feast of Christ the King everyone! I hope to see many of you walking with the Saints for All Hallows' Eve next Saturday!
Abscond liked it, and it’s official, she’s ignoring me. On ATM11, a guy and I discovered a severe glitch which deletes a bunch of chunks around where I was and it happened 3 times, the server admin had to rollback the server. I had dinner a bit later and then I got back to gaming. I took a shower and I started day 35 of my 40 day rosary at 10:32pm and completed the sorrowful mysteries at 10:55pm then went to sleep.
