TOPIC: One Tough Cookie...Never Break Character, Flawless Integrity since the Year I was Born

Remembering the quote from my biological father, Mr. Manley Rochelle Nolen, "It does not matter where you are in the world." and my 2021 thought rebuttal, "You made a difference already the day you were born, life wants to see you do it."

I tried to get my money back regarding Lyft's CitiBike, but only was able to get a partial refund.  I learn the new rules regarding credit and debit cards are put in place regarding 90 days or less to get refund and the responsibility is to work with the merchant first and second tries, then the bank or credit card company for the third try.  There are most likely no refunds after sixty (60) days.

It was tax time again to file my Internal Revenue Service (IRS).  I always file it paper because it does something to and overrides the another party that files as well.

I explored WeWork office location at 200 Berkeley St. I got the full tour plus they do mail and printing, too.  They lacked storage lockers for the lower memberships.  They did offer plenty for office space and open workspace.  I explored based on the reason of potentially having another office job or desk job.  I was ready, but the job offers never panned out.

I researched and purchased Warner Bros. Mortal Kombat 11 for my PC and smartphones, and watched the movie.

I saw a new book and skimmed through named, "The Power of Habit." Charles Duhigg (he went to Yale and Harvard).  I never purchased the book because if you read through my blogs and see how I tried to be apart of them, the ivy leagues did not let me in so I began  disconnecting and stop supporting or throwing my money at the ivy leagues ecosystem.  I cannot stop all of it, but the ones I can read or see the credentials.

Boston Housing Authority Zero Income Statement validity.

I met with Crunch Fitness Regional GX Manager to possibly teaching there and the new locations.  The Regional GX Manager gave the encouragement to get NASM AFAA Group Fitness Instructor certification.  I renewed my membership with Planet Fitness, but added Crunch Fitness because of the ability to bodybuild or powerlift with higher weights and group fitness classes.  The Regional GX Manager stated Crunch did not accept IFTA certificates.

I took advantage of the Planet Fitness's Rockbot.  The staff and I had fun liking and disliking each other's song played.  I went through almost the entire catalog of songs, especially holiday themed stuff and Sunday/Saturday had the gospel. Every Massachusetts Planet Fitness knew I was in the building when I came in with Kelis 'Milkshake', Megan Thee Stallion 'Body', Justin Bieber 'Yummy', Drake 'Sticky', Shakira 'Waka Waka', or Martin Solveig '+1', 'Do It Right' and 'Places'

When Walmart is unavailable, of course, I go to the local Target in Boston or Cambridge.  CVS Pharmacy always get me with the coupons in email and on the app.

I had to temporarily serve as a process server for Defendants in lawsuits.  Cook County Sheriff's office plus ProofServe helped served the Chicago area of Defendants. I did like the electronic automation system.  ProofServe also helped served the Boston area of Defendants.  ProofServe was darn sure cheaper than ABC Legal, which tried have you make a mortgage or car payment to have someone served, thus maxing out my DiscoverCard.

I had a dental appointment with Trinity Dental, but from the dental exam I could not get my teeth cleaning because of long-term infections, but had really good tooth pulled (extracted) for one infection and still not teeth cleaned.  I was referred to a specialist for dental work I did not want to examine how get the other long-term infection (root canal).

MGH Psychiatrist Thoughts:

Do I have any thoughts on running for Mayor or President of the United States?

Obama, Kamala, and African-American/minority leaders are paving the way and making it more realistic.  I know I have the skills and talent to do the position, but to make it real for me - for Mayor, I need one (1) million solid supports and voters or 70% of the entire voting rolls, plus 1 million dollars to run so that is $1.00 per person.  For Governor, I need 70% of the entire voting rolls and $10.00 per voter.  For President, I need solid 100 million voters to assure the win and $100 million dollars to start fundraising, which is $1.00 per person.  This would make it realistic for me in The United States of America.  I need my education debt paid for because I cannot or plan to go to Harvard University in getting more debt.

Otherwise, my realistic plans is my reality to do France and rise through the ranks to the Elyees Palace with family and all. I am not dumb, but only try once. France is my current focus.  I can let go my rage and anger against America or the emotions created from life experiences.

After seeing candidates go into debt for position, I will never do.

Other Topics from Summer and Fall of 2021:

With the current set of lawsuits, I started requesting audits of the cases.

My University of Phoenix commencement card came in the United States Postal Service mail.  When I got to Atlanta and saw the jumbotron, the card indicates how to introduce me on stage.  It was impressive. I went to the Sanctuary nightclub at 3209 Paces Ferry Place NW, Atlanta, GA. I did not make it to MJQ Concourse club.  I went to Atlanta Public Library and use their computers. I had a new Atlanta hairstylist who did my hair. My commencement was livestream via YouTube...so impressive.  Check my photoblogs for the actual pictures.  I did celebrate with my Rho Kappa Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity brothers during commencement weekend.

MGH Psychiatrist starts suggesting trying for third time in obtaining Social Security.

New blogging sites, such as Reddit, Medium, and Mastodon, but they did not like repeat or already published information.  They are expecting blogs or writing with a twist, creative writing, or alternative truth.

I earned Busuu McGraw Hill French level certificates.

I researched for The Hartford Small Business Insurance again for group fitness and personal training insurance, and Small Business coverage too.

UberEats and DoorDash increases deliveries because students were returning and peaked because I hibernate during the winter. During the winter, there are no deliveries.

I began my research in VISAs to the European Union and how to make the most of 90 days to make it a one-way trip.

Apple impressed me with AppleCare program for repairing the front glass of the iPhone.  Belkin Invisiglass was very good, but was taking on a lot of beating. Belkin replaced one out of four registered purchases.  It was not cheap protecting the Apple iPhone.

I participated with Snow Companies and Gilead Advisory Board.

I did order Walmart using DoorDash.

I used UberEats to deliver my meals.

I signed up for a Cannabis Delivery Driver, but they did not allow footwalkers or bike so you had to have a vehicle with insurance.

I had to renew my Massachusetts SNAP or Food Stamps with Massachusetts Department of Transition Assistance.

I had to renew my MassHealth (BMC Community Health Plan) with Massachusetts Department of Transition Assistance.

I donated to Massachusetts General Hospital, St. Francis House, and Pine Street Inn.

I did not win the Massachusetts VaxMillions giveaway, but registered.

I had my second Federal Express Fitness for Duty Evaluation.

I participated with Centers for Disease Control VAERS and vaccine safety programs in giving feedback on the COVID-19 vaccination process.

Other organizations, such as St. Francis House, Pine Street Inn, Crunch Fitness, and Planet Fitness, tried to continue the assaults or touching after Federal Express and BPHC Southampton.  Stay on lookout for 2022 posts on how I am handling those organizations (South Carolina, Georgia, and Washington, DC know what I do).
