Jell-O 1-2-3. Jiffy Pop popcorn.

It's a great day to go to Home Depot.

If I were a provider, my dream client: John Cena. Bottoming for me.

Suggesting that one only sees “high class clients” is akin to the “luxury condominium” descriptor. Non sequiturs running wild.

Does any real estate developer sell “basic” properties? Nope.

Same with escorts. I’d fall over if an ad said “I see only basic clients.”

It’s just language garbage. Ignore it.

....when the people working at the Apple store address me as "Sir".

Live in the truth.

Feel sufficiently comfortable with your decision-making to make new choices regularly. Embrace change; do not fear it.

Opting to maintain the status quo is rarely the right choice.

Consider carefully how many people you allow to have a vote on your life's direction. (Note: in my case, it's zero.)

Step outside your comfort zone regularly. Consider activities that challenge your values rather than affirm them.

Read. Ask people what they're reading. And why.

Play offense. It's a hell of a lot more fun than playing defense.

Say "yes" as often as you can. Be generous with your time, your talent, your treasure.

Work to meet people of a different generation than your own. Cultivate these relationships.

Consider what you'd like your legacy on this planet to be. Pursue this.

What is the unserved/underserved market that your proposed project will target?

I set a wake-up alarm. Walk at least 5 miles each day. Read. Connect via phone (and not Zoom) with at least one friend each day. Keep my home clean and tidy. The NY Times crossword puzzle (yes, in ink.). Volunteer at least once/week to assemble food boxes at my local food pantry. Cook, helped by my weekly Hello Fresh box (which helps me with portion control, calorie count, and sodium intake). Excepting Hello Fresh, these were all my pre-COVID to-dos. Regimen great and small works for me.

My dentist knows that my professional career was in the investment business. Some time ago I was in his chair for a teeth cleaning when he started to ask me questions about equities.

I asked him if this cleaning was going to be free. That stopped the questions.

Why invite the provider to dinner to discuss real estate? If he wants your time, shouldn't he be the one doing the asking? (and the paying?) Value your time as he does his.

I met Eli 6 or so years ago. He was a lot of fun then. Most of his pics are unchanged since then. In fact, I took pic #37 of him in my bed (in either 2013 or 2014). Pics #17 and #19 are, I think, newer and therefore likely a better approximation of his look now. I recommend asking him for FaceTime and/or current pics.

I spend plenty of time in Mississippi for work. Close enough.

I’m interested as well.

1. Live in the truth.

2. Consider which people (if any) I allow to vote on my life.

3. Always feel free to call an audible and move in a new direction.

An escort who’s had a good time likely will volunteer a kiss at the door.

Not any worse than any other ill-advised adventure. (Kidding here, gents.)

It can happen. It does happen.

Communication, realistic expectations and having a healthy sense of personal worth are essential.

And a damn fine ass. Hell yes.

Mid 20's. Thinking it was gay porn model Tom Hartung, whom I believe advertised in The Advocate. Yum.

And a “dominate personality”.

I interviewed for a job in another city. While there, I met the man who was to be my boss. He had a comb-over that was beyond ridiculous. (Aren’t they all?)

When I returned home, I told the headhunter there was no way I would work for someone who came off to me as insecure in his own skin.

The headhunter knew exactly what I was referencing; she agreed with me.

Same concept as with a toupee.

A “good” one doesn’t exist.

Here's another favorite position: me standing at the door, holding it open while he collects his coat and shoes, and then he departs.

Ryan is my imaginary valet, but not a boyfriend. 6’2”, 185, Nordic blond, smooth. UCLA grad. 26. Looks great in his houseboy uniform of snug grey gym shorts.

I give him a list of daily tasks. He leaves when he’s done.

Yes, I am always at the top of his list. ?
