Fuckin Amazon. Noticed a 90ish dollar balance on my Visa a few days ago - had no idea what it was cause I'm pretty vigilant about my spending. The charge finally showed up on my statement and it turns out it was for a fucking Amazon Prime membership I did NOT sign up for.

I guess when you "try it free for 30 days" on an order, it auto-enrolls you for the next year if you don't cancel before the 30 days is up. That's all well and good if you're actually aware that you somehow fucking agreed to it.

Anway, in the end not that big a deal because I didn't buy anything off Amazon after it enrolled me, so when I cancelled the membership I got a full refund.

But still. Fuckin Amazon.

An elderly writer friend of mine called me this morning. His brother died and left him two properties in Brazil - a mansion in Rio and a penthouse in Copacabana - that he needs to sell by the end of the year to avoid paying the exorbitant taxes that he nor his sister can afford. They've hired a lawyer there, but I guess neither has the time to go and stay there until they're both sold. And hiring a realtor is out of the question. Knowing my current way of life, he's asked me if I would fly down to show the properties, secure them and handle any other business. I was just about to book my plane ticket to Montreal this weekend, too. Now I'm kind of at a loss for words. He said he'd cut me a percentage of the selling price, too. He also mentioned it helps that I'm white, as it'll probably help sell the properties faster. Talk about news from left field. I don't know what to make of it, honestly.

When an opportunity slaps you in the face, you take it, dumbass. Montreal is still gonna be there in a week, a month, a year, etc.

So I'm browsing FB looking for a dance floor to get on tonight 'cause I'm feeling a bit restless.

Apparently AVB is in town.

Would never attend his shit show, but I found it amusing his ticket is nearly triple the price of what other big-name DJs like Hot Since 82 and Dixon have gone for in the last month.

Ludicrous, especially since it's fuckin' Mexico.

This little flyer was the cherry on top

My plan to split uber with people not with me failed. I have diarrhea again. It's going to have to wait till the restaurant
