Sunday, December 31: New Year’s Eve 2023

Thank you. After really good thorough sleep I got up and quickly ate breakfast

 and headed down to 30th St. to pick up the rental car. I was hoping there 

wouldn’t be any massive screw ups so I could go to this Vinyasa class I 

was told about in South Philly. Turned out everything was smooth. if people

 were nice at the counter. I got an electric car cause I 

was the only small car they had left. I had trouble getting the control since place

 but the car was pretty zippy and it’s a 2023 Chevy volt. After I picked

 up the car, I bolted ha ha to South Philly thank God to have , GPS because on 

the way there I was blocked by truck and the GPS got me around the 

block blockade and I made it to class on time. The room was cold and several people I thought would be there couldn’t make it because they were babysitting

 their grandchildren, etc. anyhow , Maria was very nice I haven’t been talked by her in I think years because I don’t go to Early classes. She left Hot Yoga , Philadelphia
so not going to be

 in class with her anytime soon except going to this class. It was good couple new moves etc. after that I came home and took a nice nap and took a shower and shave. 

it felt good to just blob out. I’m good at that anyhow , I returned to Mary’s and we hung out and had delicious stuffed peppers her specialty. I love eating those stuffed 

peppers 🫑 Umm stuffed!! Anyhow, we got distracted and texting and

 it was 1030 and we had to be at the yoga class. We made it in plenty of time. They had all kinds of 

festival balloons and and swag for New Year’s. It was fun.

 It was a very packed class, and they played all kinds of music from Devo to Talking

 Heads it was pretty cool. Afterwards, it was nice to listen to love

 shack and knowing that I didn’t have to pay $80 to go to Ardmore $60 to go to Millbourne or this is the best one, $35 from the The yoga 
studio to the Dorchester, which is basically a 15 minute walk. It 

was kind of ridiculous but that’s a tradition. I have see how much 

it cost to Uber but Ardmore it wasn’t $100.  Ardmore would’ve been 

only 85 bucks + tip so that’s proof that inflation has improved or less 

people are going out. It was a good way to start 2024. Tomorrow we’re going to take a 

road trip to Long Beach Island and Millville with the rental car that I got. It’s an 

electric car. Hopefully it won’t be too much of a hassle rent one of these

 cars. It’s the first one I ever rented. I think I’ve rentedhybrids

 but never a pure electric car. We’ll see what happens. 

Tuesday, September 26: Join a Choir In the 🌧️ Bow

Good day sir! I slept well but STILL managing to deal with the detritus 

of a cold I caught 3 weeks ago.Its a pain in the ASS but I can function just fine. It’s cloudy, cool and grey with slight drizzle. I got to Mike’s around 8:30 am 

with an assist from a bus riding south on Broad Street. I got to Mike’s and realized that I have to deal my student loan and the PLSF program which I was hoping to have the loan forgiven. 

It’s 11:29 AM and I am on hold w the Department of Education for 32 minutes. The music stopped so I’m worried that I was left astray. To make a long

 story short, they were not helpful. Found out I have to start all over again after much thinking I called the HR service center to Commonwealth and they’re gonna send me 

a form and then I have to sign it and they’ll send it back and I’ll send it back to them.now it’s 2 o’clock. I’m about to do some serious bank work for Mike. Well, I 

went to SEPTA‘s office, where his check is and they will not let me take the elevator. anyhow, got that done and then went to the bank and the bank was really nice and so was the woman who eventually gave Mike’s 

check to me. I got back to Mike’s and then it was time to walk to therapy and that’s what I did. Class I mean the session went very well.  We touched on the past

 and Anxiety. It’s all say about that. Anyhow, I looked in my backpack and 

realized I forgot my stupid thermos, so I gotta walk back. At least the Vinyasa 

class I’m taking is at 5:45 so I have an extra 15 minutes to glorify myself
walking back-and-forth in this in the drizzle. A judge has convicted Donald Trump and his businesses for fraud in a civil case. He cheated the government 

out of taxes by underestimating the value for tax returns and overinflating to get loans. I think they had an open shot case. But it’s good to get another conviction. 
I’ll be it for a civil 

case but it’s still good. Well, it’s 5:27 PM I had to get ready for my 545 Vinyasa class. I already have signed in so I just need to get my mat
 Vinyasa class is 

really good I really like the instructor a lot she’s really chill. After that I got showered quickly and auditioned for the choir and got in as the 2nd bass guy decided in five minutes. Rehearsal starts now 

rehearsals from 7:30 to 9:30 every Tuesday night. well, that was a very interesting and positive 

experience. It went on longer than 930 because he took breaks and first the sopranos and altos took a 


break and then we took a break and then went back and did a 

little more singing and then put a shit load of chairs away. so I’m hoping to have

 a stuffed peppering get home by 11:30 if I can do that but I’m tire. 
Mary treated me to two stuffed peppers when I arrived but I was delayed because they had a whole Walnut Street barricaded for broad all the way out the protest that happened. I had a nice time with Mary Tugman baseball etc. and hanging out. I caught an Uber and we got caught at 52nd Walnut during Brian little bit of luting going on and the guy slowed down and I just told him to step on it because we were going to get attacked if we started slowing Down.
