In tbe Daily Press article about my show, the critic mentioned uh, this:

I think she was great and gorgeous too. Too bad we have be feeling it to get so uninhibited, right? She’s a miraculous beauty to me. No joke. It was awkward but really one of the hi lights of the show for the old fish 🧑‍✈️ captain. Bless his old heart 😉

I can’t believe I’m posting this but a lot if people have asked me about the duets with the young lady lass. lol. Very impromptu and I do not know the lovely young lady. Scout’s honor🤞 😇 It was my miracle and I’m claiming it.

Better live footage of me that night performing is here:

So I say to myself, DameYin!, “Do nothing” until Tue night. That’s an order, foot soldier. Summer well done, time to rest now boy/man.

I’m engaged. Jk.
Me. Summer 2024

We have issues in the here and now that cannot be solved, at least, not for 48 hours. We also have an opportunity for you to be rested, tight, and chipper through the doctor’s orders of a short staycation in your charming and blessed home. Your wellbeing is more valuable to us than any would-be solution we could offer now. Stay open to a universe of possibilities. Have you geard my newest album I released Summer 2024?

How can you enjoy a solution when your mind is foggy, headache grey, and spilling all over your floor. You need to connect with yourself again.

-so

I’m taking myself off the clock and out of commission for mental repair until Tuesday around say 6pm?

Guardian angel’s prescription!

I hope you do this for yourself sometimes. No one else can truly rest for you. No workaholic comments pleeze! They live in a fantasy land. They hurt all those they come in contact with. God damn their foolish bravado. They act worthy of their status. Hypocrites the lot of them.

After taking the bus mother ways to my first day back teaching, I need the healing forest and sone incense burning in my apt.

Besides my need for relaxation in solitude, My new group are Sophomores but the most attentive and kind group of kids I’ve ever sheltered at Silverado.

You may see me around, as I care fir my little head.

Yes, it’s now official. Summer is closing and I got through alive, thriving in fact.

Thanks for your support, you know who you are the group if you I should say, It helped me through a terrifying event, immensely.

Back to Teacher Mode Tomorrow

The time has almost come for me to be myself again as if for the first time with a new class if College freshmen. You adapt every new class as a Professor of English, keeping what connects and works to foster and chucking what doesn’t work anymore. I swear I’m always surprised in this profession. Can’t predict what the best approach will be. Check back here tomorrow, I’ll tell you how it went.

Likely how my ancestors presented in those days. They are in my DNA. I’m a college English Professor and I go back tomorrow after what people must label a marvelous Summer for Professor Riley. As it is, be with that.
