I WON THE LOTTERY: I got 4 free large pizzas!
Note: that was clickbait and a good hook to create interest for the rest of the update.
It is true, there was major typos in the last update. Please have patience with my editor, he is new and needs a second set of eyes.
New section? White boy of the week: anyone deserving recognition. Did your boss bring you lunch? White boy of the week! Did LeBron hit the over on his rebounds and clutch the 10th leg of your 10-leg parlay? White boy of the week! Or do we call it real men of genius? Need feedback
This week’s white boy of the week: mop guy on the basketball court that wipes where the players fall to keep the court dry and with no wet spots. This week, we salute you, mop guy.
🗓️ Weekly Rundown🗓️
As discussed in white boy of the week, I went to an OSU basketball game with Run Club, shout out OSauer. The large group of 10+ Mexican children behind us was very entertaining. Mis amigos were very into the game, and they, much like me, loved when OSU drained a 3, bringing their 64 points to 67 points. 6 7!!! 6 7!!! 6 7!!! The night ended passing Sensky while waiting for his Uber on the walk back to our car.
Went to Jackie O’s on 4th for a networking event with the most esteemed group OU has to offer, OUSEMG. It was great seeing the group and recent alumni. I loved hearing about all the newest achievements from the individual members and the group as a whole, plus the newest office bits #YoGurt. Wrapped it all up by hosting a gaggle of them at the Hood house.
#Gang
Will take more photos to add.
Have eaten 4 large pizzas this week, as I was gifted the extras from the alumni event. It was a total score. The food bill will be coming in below expectations.
Work’s been thumbs down as I’m no longer in schools but now ripping the phone on cold calls #Yikes. Except Tuesday, Tuesday was good. But I do possess the power to put anyone who requests on the Do Not Call list!
Kendama and house music are for when you OD on Teams, but for an OD on cold calls, well, that calls for playing rummy with pickled beets and beer, and lacrosse/wrestling on the TV.
I just learned of Penn State’s dominance in wrestling. That’s got to be the most dominating performance year after year in sports. They have been national champions in wrestling 12 times in the last 14 years.
Watched F1 with Brad Pitt — TBH: the main guy was a risky F1 driver with hecka aura and was fun to watch. Rate: 8
Got a haircut from Ms. Howard-Stevens — and to pre-answer Grandpa Jim and the uncles, no, I didn’t get A hair cut, I got them all cut.
Mailed my pen pals for the first time. I hope these first graders think I’m cool. I told them my favorite movie is Cars. I was scared to put Fight Club or Step Brothers, fearing Ms. Godwin asking me why her kids are threatening to put their balls on each other’s drum sets or showing up to class with various injuries and not talking about Fight Club.
Reading Leviticus and it’s got me wondering how many animals had to be sacrificed. Short answer: a lot.
After lots of thought, I plan on putting some irons in the fire. I have a specific iron I’m excited to put in the fire, but outside of that, what irons to put in the fire are still up in the air, but big ideas flow around.
Did I give up my favorite job where listen to audiobooks while I cut grass and can take any day off I need to travel and see friends, so I can work really hard for 40 years, save up money, so then I can finally take time off to cut grass, listen to audiobooks, travel, and play with friends, (if we’re still in good health)? It loks like I did accept that trade. But at least I'd be a productive member of society.
Foot still hurts

High:
Overall, the week was great — from having one less day of cold calling, and I got to do fun stuff with fun people.
Low:
Max got into an altercation with Emma and is now in exile in the basement.
Buffalo:
Before Jesus died, forget about mixing fibers like wool and linen, that’s a no-no. If you had a rash that turned your hair white or made your changed sizes, you're so cooked.
