Hot Men in a box

Interesting title, huh?  It was time to order calendars and no ordinary plain calendar will do for me.  I have to have hot naked or nearly naked men.  One for my office in the basement.  One for my bedroom and one on the fridge in the kitchen.  One thing is for sure if there is ever any kind of an emergency and I need help from fire or police when they come in they will be shocked by all of the naked men in pictures.  I’m gay this is my house and it’s my choice.  I guess it might shock a guy if I ever do get serious into dating.  But I’ll worry about that when it happens.  Sort of like winning the lottery but hopefully with much better odds.

I woke up this morning and had a decent nights sleep but lacked motivation to go in.  I used the one more day won’t hurt.  Christ was I wrong.  It was a busy damn day the phone was driving me nuts and I did take a break from it.  I have a lot of knowledge and certain duties were entrusted to me along with my former co-worker who left.  Since then I have been cross training and it’s not going terribly well.  The new guy on our team is dumb as stone, not sure where they found him but he’s a total fraud and doesn’t know anything about IT Security.  It’s obvious but I believe he was a diversity hire and because of that were stuck with him until he t-totally fucks up royally.  I thought we had him last week when we had to take 4 machines off the network but nope just a slap on the wrist and were back to normal.  Our boss asks him to do things and he doesn’t follow through or if he does it’s half-ass.  I don’t trust him and I don’t like him but since I have to work with him I just muster along.  I have given up complaining because it does no good, I am just letting him hang himself and with enough time he will.  I don’t like to see anyone lose their job but this guy is clearly in over his head, he lacks common sense so I don’t know how he manages to make it to the office but he does.  Thankfully we don’t work in the same office or I probably would have gone off on him already.  It takes a lot of restraint seeing how he is a senior level person and is supposed to know more than me, who is the junior level person – I literally run circles around him and have been carrying our whole team.  Now I think my taking 2 days off will make a little more sense.  It won’t change a thing but it did give me a slight break.

Thank you for the comments, it’s nice to know that I have regular readers.  Mr. Dot I remember you and have thought about you, kind of figured that you were gone, glad that is not the case.  My long time friend Jude, glad your still along for the ride.  You both made my day!

I opted to renew my Grindr subscription for 1 more month, then I will go back to my swearing it off.  I’ve been on Tindr for quite sometime.  I got a match with a hot young guy over a month ago but neither of us has made a move and that is not likely to happen.  The electronic era has made dating more convenient but it’s also made it awkward, I mean what do you say?  People crave attention but you send them a message and never hear from them.  You can clearly see they got the message but chose not to respond.  I don’t beg, I block if you don’t respond with in a few hours of getting a message from me your blocked and I move on.  I don’t want to hit up a bunch of guys at once, with my luck I would start chatting with a bunch of them and get things mixed up.  I am not a player I just need 1 genuine good guy and that will be enough for me.  Maybe someday that will happen, be it from a dating app or from real life.  Either way I wish it would hurry up, because being alone is fun but it gets old and is depressing. 

As you well know from prior post I am an Amazon a holic.  I get my monies worth of free shipping from my Prime Membership.  I ordered some shampoo & conditioner by Sebastian, I was doing too many things at once and screwed up.  I got a different product than I wanted.  Sure I could return it but it’s just easier to order the right thing.  So I did that and spent $18 more the right stuff arrives on Friday.  Supposed to make my hair shine – I am all about shine, just wish my hair were a little darker like it was when I was younger.  Everything changes with age. Some good and some not so good.

Fall TV is back.  Saw The Middle, Axl looks pretty hot, too bad the network blurred him when he was nude, I wouldn’t mind looking at his buns or anything else he has to display.  I’ve got lots of crushes and look forward to seeing new episodes.  I do get the occasional laugh out of a show as well as subtle reminders about life, so that makes it worth while. 

Before I go scampering off to take in some of that Fall TV.  October is Cyber Security Awareness Month.  How relevant given the Equifax breach.  Attacks are getting more sophisticated and breaches are becoming more common place.  You have to operate with caution just as you would when driving a car.  You never know what is going to happen.  It’s important to prepare ahead of time so that your data is backed up, your passwords are change in regular intervals and you use a password safe, preferably one with a cloud presence like 1Password or LastPass, so that if you do fall victim it’s easy to recover.  Never, ever pay ransom there is no assurance you will get your data back.  I heard the other day where a police department paid ransom they got their files back and 1 month later they were infected again and had to pay all over again.  Their IT people told them it’s best to pay.  I don’t know who they hired but clearly they didn’t know what they were doing.  We all like to think nothing will ever happen to us, but it does.  It’s best to operate with caution and be prepared so that your not operating in total chaos. 

Now upstairs to take in some fall TV, eat a chocolate muffin wash it down with a glass of milk and enjoy time with the cats before it’s time to medicate them and myself, preparing for Thursday.  Not so bad 1 day back, followed by 1 more and then it’s the weekend.  Next week the boss is on vacation so we should all be able to make some progress and maybe I will be able to dig out from all of the crap that is bogging me down.  Here’s hoping. 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope your day was awesome.
