April 4th, 2025: Friday today, I woke up at a normal time and posted my Biblejak for the day, I remembered that I had to acolyte for mass today at 12pm so I texted the priest to give me a rundown but he then said that there was going to be a different priest there at the mass. I got there and then realized that the way he did it was far different from what I would usually do, he did help me understand how to put on the acolyte robes, which included the alb and the cincture and even showed me the two different ways of tying the cincture. He even remarked:
"One way they tell that you're an American in Rome is that you tie it this way."
I then go out and go through the mass while trying to understand what to do, there were 6 people in the crowd, one of which was Gabriel, thank God for Gabriel because I just gave him a quick glance so I could understand better what to do. After mass I then walked home and got on this call with this girl from Mississippi, she talked about how she used to weigh 600 pounds and then started losing weight until she got to 450 then getting weight loss surgery, I was just appalled by the effects, your stomach capacity shrinks down to a cup and you have to take vitamins because of how inefficient your stomach is made to be. Also she had to constantly sip water because she couldn't drink it all at once. I said to her that it sounds useless because she was already losing weight. She said:
"I wanted to do it faster"
Holy Amerimutt! I then played some more PokeMMO until it was time to go get dinner with Joseph. He picked me up at 5:05pm and we went down to the diner, our waitress wasn't usually there on Fridays because she gave Joseph a menu and didn't recognize him. He talks mostly about how he thought Douglas MacArthur was a hero who got fired not for proposing that we drop 50 nukes on North Korea, but because he talked badly about Harry S. Truman, I then asked him if he would be willing to do an interview for my school project and he said yes. During diner this song called Everybody's Somebody's Fool was playing at the diner and Joseph recognized it, I used Shazam to find out the song and it turns out he was right on the name but wrong on the singer. After dinner, he drove me back home and I gamed a bit more until I got a snap from the girl I had removed last year, in it she was super drunk and was talking about me and saying that she would drive over to stay with me. I kept having to tell her no and that she should absolutely not drive anywhere under any circumstances. There was also this other girl who was snapchatting me drunk telling me that I should come to her city and stay in her bed, she gave me her address and it turned out that she was a short walk southwest of where my grandma Jane lives but she wasn't as rowdy. Eventually the first demanded that I facetime her so I went to the storage closet in the basement and called her, she started talking about me with all her friends until it was 11:40pm and I had to go to sleep, she still kept texting me even after I told her I had to go to sleep.

April 5th, 2025: Back to work today, I ended up getting a long ass Snapchat message from the girl that I was talking about yesterday saying how drunk she was. I kinda apologized to her and she said that she was getting drunk again and was going to block me. I ended up copying the message she sent to me and sent it to Vannie, she replied:
<why is that lowkey wholesome
I called her a Redditor. I got to work and it was pretty meh. While I was doing some sweeping up front, this old Black lady starting yelling at me that she was eating here because I brought a dustpan near (15 feet) her. I immediately decided to tell the cashier that there was a crazy lady in the store that needed to be removed because she was being an asshole to me and others. They actually did something about it and I smiled for once, someone being an asshole to you and then immediately getting punished was amazing. I then went into the back and found out from Jesse that their plan was just:
"Wait for her to leave."
My mood was ruined. I also had to stock the frozen aisle. My first break was ok and I managed to coordinate a date at 6:30pm with this Black girl at a Chinese restaurant, she was pretty tall and I went back to work then. For lunch I had a Chicago combo sandwich and just chilled for a while until it was time to go back to work. I ended up seeing Norah while I was stocking stuff on the shelf but she didn't notice me sadly. I just proceeded with the rest of my tasks until my second break where fAsherah talked about Old Ozzy Osborne one time asking her to review the lyrics to his cliche love song he wrote. Remembering her not responding to my text, I brought up her alternating between capitalizing nothing and capitalizing the first letter of every word and she said it was her way of putting emphasis on things, I was dissapointed with her. I then got started on closings and once I clocked out. I started walking to the restaurant we were supposed to be meeting at, it was supposed to be a 30 minute walk but I ended up getting there in 25 minutes. When I got to the restaurant, I noticed that it was very run down and we couldn't get inside because they made it drive-through only. I texted her about it and she said that she was taking an Uber here so we couldn't do the drive-through. I noticed that there was this KFC nearby so I suggested that we go there instead. I walked there and then waited for 10 minutes before she arrived, I noticed that she didn't appear as hygenic as in the photos because she had severe razorburn and didn't smell good, we got a 5 piece chicken tenders and they were poorly made, dry, and they didn't taste anywhere near as good as when I had it while I was living with my grandpa in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We then go on a walk to the nearby park while seeing all the litter that was there. We stayed for like 40 minutes there until I had to leave to get home, I took the bus home and when I arrived there, I started getting ready for bed when I saw that my roommate Enosh had decided to fucking put the TV in his room on the TV stand right in front of a bigger TV

How dumb can this guy get!?

Song of the Day: Hey Radiofunker - IFA Wartburg (1998)
 
April 6th, 2025: Sunday today, I woke up at 6:00am and posted my Biblejak for the day on the booru and finished off the smore poptarts for my breakfast. I texted my mom about doing my taxes and asking her to review it and she said that I should call her once I get home from work. On my wait for the bus to work, the Catholic Center's priest saw me and rolled down his windows to say hi. I then got to work, which just consisted of stocking the beverage aisle and then the shelves, the original owner still wasn't there and I asked fAsherah and Sabrina about it, they said he was probably off in Arizona again. When I went on my lunch break and while I was sitting down, Biker started talking to me while holding his W-2 he got from work saying:
"They really need to start taking out more money for federal taxes, I owe money now!"
I then checked out his W-2 and it showed him only having $63 taken out for federal taxes on an income of $5,000 (We got 2 W-2s from work because of the business transfer, I think this was the smaller one) and I found it weird because I got $54 taken out of mine and I did the math and realized that the withheld tax was roughly half that with the new management. I continued eating my food. I continued stocking the freezer and even got done with my tasks early, there was smoke coming from another room because a washing machine broke and a few people investigated it. At around 5:00pm I clocked out of work and waited for the bus, I then realized I could perform an experiment, I would request to follow Asherah's roommate, specifically the one who also likes Emerson Lake And Palmer, who I decided I will be calling Elinor. I easily found her account and then requested to follow it, closely monitoring the situation. I took the bus then got home at roughly 5:20pm and called my mom, she just told me to call her back in 30 minutes, I had some of the jambalaya Enosh made and then called her back. She just gave me some standard advice and stuff. I then got dressed for church and ran there. Lucas was serving as an usher and I also sat near Bartholomew, Isaiah was also there and Joseph decided to sit next to me, when he sat down next to me he said:
"I decided to sit with the peeps for once!"
The church was packed because Pops was the presider for the mass. He gave a homily on the difference between Shakers and Quakers and how Shaker furniture is like Jesus. The mass then proceeded as normal until it came time for the eucharist. There was this one lady that was being really slow in line for no reason so our side got really clogged up. After that I walked home and I decided to stop by the convenience store, I get close to this blue car while walking up to it and there was this White guy driving it with this girl that looked sort of like Elinor in the passenger. I was fucking cursed, there goes my attempt to not look weird because I just happened to encounter her late at night. I went in and bought some of those red white and blue popsicles, went home, had one, took a shower, and then went to sleep.

April 7th, 2025: School week starts today. I woke up at roughly 6:30am and I stayed in my bed mostly for like an hour. I then finally got up and had some of the cornbread that Enosh had left out for breakfast. I had originally planned on finding a restaurant nearby to have a traditional diner breakfast at but the bread had already nourished me. I then got back into Baldur’s Gate I after a while, I managed to progress to Chapter 2 but I kept being killed by Neira whenever I tried to enter the inn even though there were times that I had nearly gotten her to a low enough health, my party was me (as a Skald), Imoen, Xzar, (Whenver he yells:
"Stop touching me!"
It always cracks me up) Montaron, Jaheria (only level 2 character somehow), and Khalid. After a bit I then started working on studying for the in-person quiz that would be happening for my first class when I saw a post on Instagram about a blood drive going on, I decided that I would go to that after my first class. I sat through my first lecture and then completed the quiz pretty fast. I decided to skip that class and I noticed that Elinor had accepted my follow request and even followed me back, which was quite the pleasant surprise. I was expecting some more people to show up for the blood drive but I was one of 3 people there to donate blood at 2:10pm behind 8 other people that had gone to this blood drive beforehand this day. 2 others came in after me. I did my health screening and they said that I wasn't a high enough weight to have me donating red blood cells (150lbs) but I could still donate whole blood as I had usually done before. Anyways here's the measurements they took of me:
>Weight: 142.9lbs
>Blood pressure: 102/63
>Temperature: 98.8°F
>Pulse: 87
>Hemoglobin: 15.2

After filling out the questionnaire and sitting on the chair, they asked me about any allergies to iodine or shellfish, I answered no and asked why the shellfish question (I knew the iodine was for disinfecting the spot where I would be drained) and she said it was an additive. I then got the iodine applied and was set up to go when they injected me with the needle as I waited for a few minutes until it finished. After sitting around in the seat for a while, I was then asked by the lady who was assisting me throughout the whole blood drive:
"What would you like to drink?"
I asked her:
"What is there to drink?"
She then said:
"Water, Sprite, Coca-Cola, cranberry juice, apple juice."
"Of the cranberry juice and the apple juice, which one has more iron in it?"
"Neither of them have any iron in them."
I was honestly perplexed at this, why would they not provide any drinks which contained iron for someone participating in a blood drive, I mean there was water but you couldn't always be sure. I then got up and walked over to the snack table and closely inspected the snacks they gave us, I saw they had some trail mix, both the normal and tropical kind to eat and each of those had the same amount of iron, 8% of the daily value according to the nutrition label. So I decided to eat a packet of the tropical trail mix and then snag one of those small drink mixes to go. I walked back home in the cold and put my backpack down. I then sent the priest a text asking if there was a written guide that I could review before the Archbishop would come to the mass and he texted me:
<I can put some notes together
I then walked over to a pharmacy to buy a bottle of iron supplements. I ended up settling on either one of two choices, they were the same size, same amount of pills in each bottle, same daily iron value, but one was $13.99 and the other one was $17.99, neither of them appeared to be name brand at all so I purchased the cheaper one. I went up to the counter and it turned out that the cheaper one was $17.99 despite the price tag saying otherwise. But I still bought it and then walked back home and took a pill to boost my iron. For dinner before my final art class of the day. I just had a packet of chicken flavored ramen. I then walked over to my art class where we learned about our next project as I continued with the color wheel exercise. I could hear Keleche talking about his OCs (original characters) to another student and the oldest guy in the class said that one of his daughters was a freshman at the college we attend which I found to be a neat piece of trivia. I fucked up on the opposite color progression thing for the orange to blue and the teacher told me to just redo that part and praised Ginger girl's color scale and that I should look to her as a guide. I didn't but I ended up getting a call from the Red Cross asking about donating blood (the blood donation drive earlier today was run by a different company.) Eventually class got let out and I went back home. At home I decided to go through her Instagram account and found some interesting things like how she knew Asherah longer than me (August 30th, 2022 vs sometime on or before July 28th, 2022) and that she had attended both a Hindu temple thing and mentioned All Saints Day for 2022 in a story with Asherah. Also there is a possibility that she had met my mom before (or at the least, there is one degree of separation between her and my mom without going through me via a politician (multiple politicians could fill this role)) and she started college a semester before me despite being younger than me. I then ate some more snacks, finishing off the ranch flavored takis I had bought and throwing them away. I completed more German homework due tomorrow and started on this machine learning assignment that was due at 1:00pm on Wednesday, April 9th and then took a shower, I browsed Twitter some more until it was time to go to bed but I just couldn't go to sleep sadly, 45% because I felt like shit mentally, 45% because I shouldn't have been on my phone so late at night, and 10% me worrying about serving as an acolyte on Tuesday.

April 8th, 2025: Archbishop visit today. I woke up at 7:30am in the cold, when I got out of bed I tried to get off it to put my socks on, I felt the cold stone floor at my feet and was absolutely chilled. I reached around for my flip flops and put them on before I ended up grabbing my robe and then putting on some pants. I walked to the kitchen and finished off the grits that I had been eating. I waited for it to go in the microwave as I then started on preparing the coffee. I started working on the Biblejak for the day when the microwave went off, I ate my bowl of grits and drank my coffee while finishing up my Biblejak and posting it. I then completed my German assignments before my class. While I was browsing Twitter, I noticed this funny thing by my Twitter mutual. There was this insufferable transgender woman who had the handle @Liv_Agar who tweeted:
<Catching up on like a months worth of discourse but I broadly do not care what you have to say about feminism if you can't agree that most men hate women
So my Twitter mutual @BillTheKid1603 replied with a screenshotted tweet from @evildarkempath of them saying:
<Nothing super against mtf misandrists but at times it feels like the zeal of the convert
And watching the sheer amount of rage coming out of it made me laugh. Even Liv saw the tweet and it commented:
<I bet this goes hard as fuck if you’re stupid
I saw some other funny quote tweets like this one from princess marcy ⚢ (@gaylilrat):
<"no offense to mtf misandrists but ur not real women and ur anger at the patriarchy is unjustified and a laughable attempt to try to be one" dude, die
Another one by sam (@femalehabermas) which went
<some guys on here love to post incontrovertible proof that they’ve laid hands on a woman before
To which @BillTheKid1603 replied:
<Were you trying to call me a virgin or a domestic abuser because they are basically mutually exclusive
Of course there were voices of reason in the comment section like from Sr Comics Luchador (@Mr__Comics):
<How can you have once been a man and still think all men hate women, I'm sorry but did transitioning make you not sexist???
After a bit I then finally went to German class and we learned more on nominative vs accusative. We then watched this music video by Helene Fischer, the teacher remarked:
"You can use this video to find Germans because they can't resist breaking out into song and dance with this!"
It felt pretty generic and was just normieslop from the Obama era (even though Angela Merkel was Chancellor of Germany when that song released.) After class was let out I posted on my Instagram story about the mass and then walked to my second class for the discussion. Along my walk, I ended up seeing Lizzo but I was much higher up compared to her so she didn't see me. I got in and Chappelle was there along with the nerdy girl and the South Korean. Our discussion task for the day was to talk about hacking and if it was wrong or not, including instances about Wikileaks getting financial aid cut off, Ken Thompson talking about how hacking should be treated like home invasion, and if stores which take credit cards should use a PIN or a signature to prevent credit card fraud (I think PINs are useful and if you can't remember your PIN, you're too stupid to remember what year you were born (2003 for me), signatures aren't checked at purchase time so no) I got out early so I then had this text conversation with Joseph:

>When are we meeting to go to the memorial?
<I can pick u up 12 30
>I have class until 2:15pm.
<Ok does 3 00 work
>Yes!
I then worked on writing down my blog entry for the day. I got done with it at 2:57pm and walked out to wait for Joseph. I then get in his car and we drive out to the museum. On the walk to the entrance he points out the statue of Douglas MacArthur and how he was his hero. We walked in and the first thing we saw was the exhibit on POWs, he started talking about the Hanoi Hilton and Senator John McCain being a famous prisoner there, I then asked him:
"Did you get sent there?"
He answered:
"Oh heavens no, never got captured!"
"Wait where did you serve?"
"Well my last 6 months of my duty were spent in Berlin, Germany. West Berlin to be exact, this was before the wall fell."
We then went up to the exhibit on all the metal of honor winners and looked at the TV, I remarked on the fact that they even had people recorded from our state for the Boxer Rebellion. We then walked outside past the eternal flame and went up to another part of the museum and walked around the hall and looked at all the war bonds posters. We saw the wall of African-American soldiers and eventually made our way into this office where we talked with this guy about this project he was doing, Joseph knew him from the setting up of roughly 27,000 mini American flags volunteer work. He even offered me an internship over the summer so I got his business card. After that Joseph walked me back to the car and he talked about how this major road would flood because of a lake a lot and they eventually solved that. He drived me to the Catholic Center but when he got there he said:
"Oh, I'm gonna go home now, I won't be able to attend the mass!"
I went into the chapel and saw that there was already a good amount of people here and preparing. I then walked upstairs and prayed a decade of the rosary before I saw that Elizabeth was having trouble with putting 2 fallen polaroids, putting them up lower than they should be. So I put them up higher to match the pattern that was present. The Archbishop walked in and we shook hands. I ended up locating the acolyte who would be serving as crucifer (crucifix bearer) and we then started looking around for the other acolytes, the next person to come was thurifer (incense bearer) acolyte and then finally Mercurius arrived, he and I would be the candle bearers, I was first tasked with checking and replacing all the candles at the 15 stations of the cross to make sure the candles were ok and then replacing them if needed. Next I got dressed and then I was told to light all the candles for the stations of the cross and then I would go outside the room with the lit candle and walk in behind the crucifer and thurifer. Before we went in, the Archbishop thanked us for being acolytes for the mass. We proceeded in and then put our candles back in place and varied between sitting and standing at our seats. I saw Rose, the Honduran, Gabriel, Kaitlin, Henry, Elizabeth, and others in the crowd. The Honduran did the first reading. It came time for the gospel reading where Mercurius and I stood facing each other in front of the ambo, I he was just looking straight at me without blinking. We sat down for the homily and then went in front to kneel with the candles for the preparation of the eucharist. I ended up kneeling kind of weirdly which resulted in me feeling unstable and kind of wobbly and my robe was messing me up, plus the heat and smoke from the candle made me feel woozy. I noticed that Mercurius had went to being on both knees so I shortly followed his actions after that. We then received the eucharist and finally proceeded out once the mass was done. We then did the stuff for after mass like blowing out the candles and getting redressed before I went upstairs and got some tacos for dinner. While waiting in line for dinner the Honduran told me that he used to go to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign for one year and the Catholic center there took credit card, so he would usually donate $25 each time he went and wouldn't spent much on anything else, which resulted in his dad questioning him about it, I noticed the engaged girl looking at me so I decided to glare at her. I sat with Henry, his girlfriend, and the Honduran and watched the Honduran draw his friend who him and a few others joked was a Shia Muslim. The engaged girl was looking at me again so I glared at her again and she got that weird look, I started to laugh to kind of difuse the situation We were able to fill out this paper slip asking the Archbishop some questions and I asked:

>What was it like the first time you served as an acolyte?
and
>Who was your baptismal saint and who was your confirmation saint?
[SPLIT TO BYPASS CHARACTER LIMIT]
 
April 8th, 2025 (Continued): At 7:00pm, the Archbishop started answering questions, which included him talking about having 81 Brown Jersey cows on his farm growing up with him giving his parents nickel wafers as communion wafers, his habit of when he was young of constantly practicing to play pretend mass with the animals at his farm, his baptismal and confirmation saint being Saint Joseph, his opinions on dancing, how he thought the Catholic church would deal with creating new diocese when we go into space (by the way, the usual protocol for this is for it to be under the diocese of whoever first landed on it, which means that the Moon is under the Diocese of Orlando ever since 1969), and his craziest moments serving at mass being whenever someone has a health emergency. Pen Guy had arrived a bit later and was eating this weird burrito with onions, rice, and cheese, he said it was because he was pre-diabetic two years ago. Mercurius and Pen Guy talked about exchanging messages relating to books or something. Punk walked in a bit later and sat in the dining room to eat alone so I took a chair and sat there because all the other seats were filled, they had a nearly empty pitcher of pink lemonade so I poured myself some of it and then silently motioned to ask if they wanted the rest, they nodded and I poured the rest in. Punk seemed to be feeling half depressed half disgusted with me, when they was done with their food I asked if I could take their plate up and they refused, they started to leave so I waved to them goodbye and they saluted me back so my wave turned into a salute. After the questions were done, I got a few pictures with the Archbishop and then walked home, I completed some more of my homework that was due tomorrow and then went to sleep
