Today I did something that I've been too afraid to do in the past; I posted to Facebook that I was searching for a job. When I job hunted in the past, I always wanted to keep my employment status private. I was ashamed to appear unemployed. Today, however, I woke up with the understanding that if I am going to get a job that I enjoy, I'm going to need my friends' help. It wouldn't be enough to send out just a few emails, I needed a whole lot of support. So, I posted a comedic, yet sincere status and lo and behold, I was overwhelmed with the likes, comments, and messages offering ideas and help. People from high school who I haven't spoken to in years were telling me about podcasting opportunities. Ex-girlfriends and hook-ups were offering to connect me with their comedy industry contacts. I put myself in a vulnerable position and I was awash in loving support. For that, I'm very grateful. I also recognize that I probably wouldn't have the guts to post the status in the first place if it weren't for this blog/podcast. By opening myself up to the public through STWMM, I've grown more comfortable with showing my weaknesses to the public. Very good. 

The masturbation session went well. However, my balls are as hard as rocks from all this buildup. I'm praying for a nocturnal emission tonight. Also, I'm curious to know how tantric practitioners claim to experience orgasms without ejaculating. I will research and report back.

As always, leave a comment on this post or on our forum! Would love to hear from you.
