And thank you so much for joining us once again. It is the Nightly Pleasures podcast number 303. We've got a heck of an episode for you today. So let's get right on into it.

First thing that I do want to plug is a thank you to all of my patrons. If you were a patron for the month of January for at least $5, there is a two-hour audio up for you as a thank you.

It's called The Pro. It's a first-time fantasy. It's very good.

A woman hires a man to lose her virginity. He just happens to be a sex worker that's a lot like me.

Maybe you'll enjoy it. The early reviews are pretty freaking good.

Thank you again to everybody who subscribed,

everybody who rated the podcast, everybody who told a friend or just helped me out on social media.

You keep the podcast going and I appreciate you very much.

What's going on with me? Well, this is the last podcast for the month and I feel like it's a pretty good time to give an update that I feel like I did pretty freaking great in January.

My budget, my cooking, my working out, all of it. Really pretty solid. I feel very good.

At this point, I'm only 24 beers deep for the whole month and the whole year.

I'm only 24 beers.

Now, the BoJack finale is coming out, so that's going to change because I'm going to drink during that.

But I'm just really happy, like less than one beer per day.

That's a pretty good rate. I'm working out. I'm feeling really, really like less than one beer per day. That's a pretty good rate.

I'm working out.

I'm feeling really, really good about my physicality and my physical shape.

I'm feeling so good about my physical shape.

I was planning on having maybe a little bit of a hookup in December.

I was planning on maybe if it worked out, meeting up with a fan, and that didn't. That's kind

of disappointing. But I said maybe it's just for the best at the time. And I got to say,

from where I'm sitting right now, maybe I've rationalized it, but I'm so kind of glad that it did,
