Today marks a new day at a newer coffee shop. The past cafe has been recategorized to a social infirmary: a place where I can go with a mismatched outfit and some unexplained bruises, bedhead too. But this new place that I'm at, it's the fancier, more judgmental of the two. It runs on the very thin line between aesthetic and toxic, something that I think I might need right now in order to get any work done.

Before the coffee s-h-o-p-p-e, I pit stopped at a cafe run by a man with more hair on his head than he had on his head and then after that I spent some time on the 8th floor of a luxury hotel. I’m getting more familiar with the coffee s-h-o-p-p-e. The manager there wears a lot of corduroy.

I stopped at a convenience store to get some cinnamon candies and a seltzer then ran into someone who I sort of knew. Also, I’ve been to the coffee s-h-o-p-p-e 8 times over the past couple weeks now… shouldn’t the man with the mule tail goatee know what my order is? Why can’t he let me be a regular yet?

A wet figure appeared and stirred things up a bit. I feel a bit foolish for not anticipating being lonely throughout this process. I also matched with someone on Tinder who has a tattoo of a rattlesnake on their stomach.

A boy walked in with his mom and ordered a vegan sugar cookie today. I don’t think he knew it was vegan. The man with the mule tail goatee said something very cringe, I had to leave the s-h-o-p-p-e it was so bad. I went on a Tinder date with girl who had the tattoo of a rattlesnake on her stomach.

I start my job hunt by getting stood up for a work interview. Later, I tuck into a Hot Topic, a Lids, and a massage therapy studio before walking into an H&M.

I share space with a couple of people while waiting for a job interview. One of them was heads-down playing some sort of video game, the other couldn’t open their locker. I wore khaki slacks to the interview.

Before I got the job at “the place of possible, the place to be”, I worked at a company that let it’s employees bring their dogs into the office.

I had my first shift at H&M. The girl with the tattoo of the rattlesnake on her stomach sent me a picture.

I struggled to ring up a pair of pants. Then, right at the end of an important closing shift, some customers tore through each and every fedora, bomber jacket, cargo pant, and v-neck t-shirt that the men’s department held.

An episode about an Elkwood election, an orange velour jumpsuit, and a man named Declan. PODCAST UPDATE: I’m going to take a break from uploading podcast episodes until 2021 (I’m thinking February/March). I’ve been working on another project for the past year and I want to give it my full attention for the next two months, and in doing so let the podcast recalibrate for a little bit - that’s the word I’m using recalibrate. And yes this means it may not come back in the same format, nothing is set in stone just yet, still brainstorming. I’ll be updating via https://www.instagram.com/heresmything_/ and my personal account https://www.instagram.com/johnroussosss/
I so appreciate your support!!!!
Hollywood might say that a cigarette after sex is the closest one can get to nirvana on earth. That when a metal bed frame, linen sheets, and rolled tobacco come together in a unique harmony, we are to use words like glamour, spelling it the o-u-r way.

The complex that is the buzz cut. How a neglect to shave and this type of hairstyle work so well together, I still don’t know. For this episode, I think out loud about it and shed light on the worst haircut I've ever gotten. In other news, the podcast got its 100th rating on Apple Podcasts last week - thank you for the love and support!!!

They’ll tell you that not having sex is the best form of birth control, to which I disagree. Unequivocally, the best form of birth control is getting barbed wire tattooed around your arm (not in the cool way though, this one refers to the less tasteful way - the way that comes with permanent farmers tans and road rage). A story about a relationship, drug dealing, cheating, and a class. Enjoy!!

A story about an unusual couple. You might say the chances of Mariah Carey marrying a single pistachio are greater than these two working out.

Doing some reading from my diary this week. One of the entries isn’t actually an entry from my diary, but part of a satire piece I wrote titled, “A Vulnerable Diary Entry by Tucker Carlson”. These entries are from the past 9-months. Themes include, but aren't limited to pandemic dating, spilling beans on my bed, and springtime.

Qualified Immunity seems to be a lot like that streaming service Quibi in that a lot of people are aware of it, but not many know what it is. I talk about its background, a Reuter’s study, and reference Eric McCormick (co-star of Will & Grace).

To those new to Elkwood, welcome! The Elkwood Forum had something for everyone. The keyword: had. This story is about a mall before and after the boom of online shopping and a college graduate coming home in a less than optimistic economy. Please excuse my terrible southern accent.
