What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

Stone Cold Steve Austin played football at UNT. Fun fact.

Double-congrats, SM, I'm very glad things are going your way. You deserve it! Cheers, mate!

I'm $420 away from paying off my back rent.

it's my birthday in 17 days. Wonder what I'll do. Hope I get to bake a cake, which is harder than it sounds when you don't have an oven. But hopefully I'll be able to have my party at my uncle's house or my brother's ex-girlfriend's grandparents house.

Speaking of my brother…

He's back with his wife, who recently had a kid. The father was a guy she was with when they were separated. And his ex also had an adorable baby girl a few months ago. I met her when she and her boyfriend (my brother's ex-girlfriend's boyfriend) say g by Food Lion. OMG, she's so TINY! Like a little pixie!

My chances of moving to NYC in the fall look uncertain. I'm literally tempted to just say "fuck it" and ride my bike to NYC. Or at least to the Greyhound stop in Elizabeth City.

Maybe wait until COVID vaccines are available, dude. NYC, or any densely populated area, ain’t a great place to be right now.

[REPO Man]

At least cases are dropping in NYC, where social distancing and wearing masks in public. That's what I call smart. Unlike here where cases are you going up and they just started making masks in public places a requirement.

I hope you get to celebrate your birthday at your brother’s ex-girlfriend’s grandparent’s house. I suspect you can have a cake there.

[REPO Man]

Just as long as I don't have to make one in the microwave. It's doable, like if I combine a cake mix of choice with Angel Food cake mix, cuz then I can just add water. But making an entire cake? Forget it. Also my uncle's house also has an oven.

Is there not one at at your brother’s ex-girlfriend’s grandparent’s house? I would have thought that house would be the one most likely to have an oven. If not, you should probably celebrate at your uncle’s place.

Also, in case I forget in 17 days...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, REPO!

I meant so long as I don't have to make the cake at my house, where I'd have access to a microwave and a toaster oven.

Both my uncle's house and my brother's ex-girlfriend's grandparents house have ovens.

It should also be worth noting that I've thought about showing RENT: Filmed Live on Broadway and have everyone sing the first and last verses of "Seasons of Love" in lieu of Happy Birthday.

Also, in case I forget in 17 days...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, REPO!

Thanks.

Singing really spreads COVID well, so don’t invite anyone who has even a remote chance of having it. Maybe skip the singing this year, just in case. Happy Birthday!
