Jeffery Fab at 50...a Quest for Fabulousity at a Half Century and Beyond

  Greetings! It is great to be back here...a-ranting and a-raving like the good old days. Ah the good old days...when we could walk the streets without facial coverings, interact with friends and family with a hug and/or a kiss, and enjoy some "adult time" with a close friend...new or old.  But  those days seem to be far back in our rear view mirror.  Please, if you haven't done so already, GET VACCINATED ! It doesn't only protect you from the COVID-19 virus, it helps you to protect others as well. Be the example to those you care about who are apprehensive. I can tell you, the virus is a much better alternative to what this virus can do to you.  And as always, my sincerest thanks for checking back in with us. You can look forward to more consistent postings, and some other options to get the word from me as I continue my journey being Fabat50 and beyond.  So let us begin... First, a thank you.

Before I dive in, a brief disclaimer; the info I am sharing with you is taken directly from a popular gay social media site. It has in no way been altered, or modified, other than to fit the confines of the illustration used to direct attention to what is the heart of this issue. To define “who is who” within the conversation, my responses are in orange, the messages of the other individual involved are in white: just as they appeared in the original message stream. With that said......

Hello all! Well, it is day four if this new lifestyle shift, and I have to say I am LOVING it! I feel great, the eating part is not nearly as tough as I had anticipated, and in short it has been great! Now granted, I realize it’s been only four days, and the next 10 will be the true test. I’ve been told if I can get to the halfway mark without losing my mind, I am home free… Some of the best times of my life I owe to the people in this pic... I even passed one of those big hurdle test; dining out with friends. Last night, I met some of my besties at a nearby place known for the quality of their pizza pie, Wyman’s. The smell when you enter the place is an assault to begin with, and when you start to see the food being delivered to the other patrons, it’s enough to make you crazy! But I held fast. Even when my buddy Shane ordered “cheesy bacon tater tots” my resolve didn’t crumble. I ate my chicken breast and green salad happily, and didn’t even let the thought of those del...
