Shocking Adventures of Futuristic Culinary Employee Spencer Truman

Hi My Name is Spencer Truman and I work as a culinary assistant to university chefs in the Hampton Roads Virginia area in the Year 2105 cooking for Old Dominion University in Norfolk Virginia, Tidewater Community College in Norfolk Virginia and sometimes assisting my brother Damion Truman at some of the events he is asked to set up for on the University of Maryland College Park campus. I reside in a completely paid for home that is a mile from the Norfolk Virginia naval base that cost 99000 American dollars in early 2000s money. I was born June 14 2070 and I have an older brother named Damion Truman born June 13 2060 who currently resides in a paid for home less than a block away from the College Park metro station in College Park Maryland. Damion Truman paid 100,000 dollars in early 2000s American money for his home. He works as a caterer on the University of Maryland College Park campus and he sometimes invites me to help set up events with him on a volunteer basis once or twice a week. I Spencer Truman am about purchase a car within the next two weeks. We are able to easily see each other at least weekly because of a high speed train station system that was built by the year 2065 that opened across various parts of the United States. This changed the U.S. economy a lot because a person living and residing in the Washington D.C. area could now go from taking a train from downtown Washington D.C., northern Virginia andor certain parts of Maryland and be in let’s say California in the span of just an hour andor even all the way across England andor Iceland in the same timeframe more on that in a future session.

I Spencer Truman have been asked if me and my brother are direct descendants of President Harry Truman and/or members of his family. To be honest, both my brother and I have yet to know because we were both adopted by the time we were 5 years old and by the time we both worked up the courage to ask both of our adoptive parents (by the year 2090) they both mysteriously died the same day as our biological mother who died a year before (in 2089). This is important because we both have been told by our adoptive family members that only our adoptive parents know the complete information on who could be our father because our late biological mother was a popular prostitute who mingled with men of various backgrounds and socio-economic classes by the time prostitution was legalized across the United States by the year 2060. Neither my brother or I judge her for her lifestyle, however we have yet to find out our full backgrounds on our full racial ancestries because we found out through a past boyfriend of our biological mother that she was still immersed in the field of prostitution before and after she gave birth to the both of us averaging at least 8 to 20 clients a month that netted her an income of at least 2000 dollars a month in early 2000s money. However, yesterday before this interview someone who says they were one of the coworkers and a relative of one of the regular clients of my late biological mother contacted me after seeing me and my brother featured on a popular newspaper article of high society in the Hampton Roads Virginia area and interviewed on a news channel. My brother and I were featured as part of a summer camp teaching other adults psychic abilities and cooking demonstrations at a week long summer camp that is available for men and women of ages 17 on up by the year 2080. We were both interviewed because of our side business that we were offering both as matchmakers to traditional couples and matchmakers to non-traditional couples for a fee to 500 dollars in early 2000s money. We grew in popularity because we had a high rate of success in matching people who were mutually attracted to each other after just one try (i.e. over 90 percent of our clients only had to invest 500 dollars). Over 80 percent of those pairings resulted in long term relationships andor partnerships andor long term love affairs spanning at least 10 to 15 years and at least 60 percent of them resulted in marriages. We both became millionaires in the span of just 5 years because of the high demand for our services particularly from people who controversially it would have been considered taboo for them to seek out such services, i.e. a high percentage of married women and men of various ages ranging from 21 to 120 of various incomes and backgrounds and men and women of various ages backgrounds and income looking to discreetly meet these women. Yes many of these successful pairings were at our Virginia Beach summer camp along with our traditional couple pairings and oddly enough in a positive way many people got along with each other. A coworker who is connected to my potential father noticed the physical similarities of my brother and I to one of his friends that he knew and at first he admitted to not wanting to contact us until the late friend’s sister insisted that he at least lets me and my older brother know for closure even though my rumored biological father already passed away (the sister is offering up her dna). Both I Spencer Truman and Damon Truman decided to stay working in our culinary fields for now for the enjoyment of it. Apparently the rumored biological father kept my late biological mother a secret from many of his friends and family members not because of her profession but because he was married and worked in a field that necessitated he keep relations with my late prostitute mother a secret (he was a high ranking navy intelligence officer). The sister offering up her dna to see if her married brother was our father has worked as a food publicist both across the Norfolk Virginia and Virginia Beach Virginia areas in addition to multiple parts of the metro Washington D.C. area (College Park Maryland, Arlington Virginia, Wheaton Maryland Mclean Virginia etc.)Anyhow, I Spencer Truman plan to speak with you more on the feature on this exciting summer camp that opened in Virginia Beach by the year 2080 and rumor has it that a similar camp is going to open in College Park Maryland by the year 2108. I Spencer Truman admit that both myself and my brother have been told that we resemble Sting from the Everything She Does is Magic era which helps in our side business as matchmakers. However, I must be on my way because one of my career psychic coaches just texted me and is letting me know that he thinks that we both won a 200 million dollar lottery that we both purchased and shared lottery tickets for.

I have eaten at Shake Shack in at least 3 different locations within the metro D.C. area since Shake Shack came to the metro D.C. area after the May 2011 timeframe. My favorite burger is the shack stack burger which comes with a hybrid of a cheeseburger and a fried mushroom burger stuffed with cheese. I am guessing that the new Shake Shack location in Virginia Beach is probably going to be popular for at least a while if their food is just as good as the locations I have been to in the metro D.C. area. I admit that I intend to eventually try the Virginia Beach location Shake Shack.

The Poketastic place seems pretty unique from the detailed description of the eating experience and sounds to have a combination of nourishing and tasty ingredients with the references to scallop salmon pineapple seaweed salad cilantro mixed greens salad etc . I pre-ordered the book Classic Restaurants of Coastal Virginia by Patrick Evans Hylton back in April 2019 and I wonder if there are any restaurants similar to Poketastic that are going to be referenced in the Classic Restaurants of Coastal Virginia book.

This article that showcases a multiple number of items that are available in the Barry Art Museum of Old Dominion University in Norfolk Virginia and from the collection of Richard Barry and Carolyn Barry is informative. However, the only caveat I feel is that I wish that at least a few pictures of the art available in the Barry Art museum were included with this Virginian Pilot article.

I do feel that it is both worthwhile and helpful to discuss broadening the increase of grocery stores in modest income neighborhoods across the country. I am fortunate in the sense that I have enough free time in my schedule to travel to certain grocery stores for necessary food items where I live. However, I have been in areas within the U.S. that Warner refers to that could benefit from more grocery stores with affordable foods.

This Washington Post article helps remind me to eventually check out the International Spy Museum sometime before the end of this year.

Each of the Events in this Washington Post article seem interesting in their own way. However, I admit to being curious to research more information on the By The People Festival referenced in this article.

The Washington Post features a good mix of concerts in this article. However, I respectfully disagree with the Something In The Water Festival being in the Washington D.C. Area not having a note listed of the transportation arrangements to make because it is actually in the Hampton Roads Virginia area with the festival taking place in Virginia Beach. Something In The Water Festival affiliated with the talented Pharrell Williams is actually connected with the Hampton Roads Virginia area. Both the Hampton Roads Virginia and the Washington D.C. area are fascinating places to live. However, the well meaning inclusion of the Something In The Water Festival must accompany a note that such a festival would most likely need to be accessed via taking an Amtrak train, airplane or greyhound bus even with the inclusion of a Delaware festival in the article for Washington D.C. readers who might have resided in the Washington D.C. area their whole life and might be led to believe that all of these festivals are public transportation accessible. I am adding that note with also admitting that I do intend to eventually attend the Something In The Water Festival in Virginia Beach in ideally 2020.Still, I am a proud Washington Post subscriber and I intend to be for years to come especially because a multiple number of the Washington Post articles are fascinating to look at andor read.

Obviously as an Amazon fanatic, I do believe that Amazon moving to Arlington Virginia is a good move both for the overall state of Virginia and for the metro Washington D.C. area. The Hampton Roads area of Virginia would have been the next best area for Amazon. However, I can understand why the Crystal City Arlington Virginia area was chosen because of the top notch public transportation in both Crystal City Arlington Virginia across the metro Washington D.C. area that helps even car-free male and female career professionals easily get around.

I feel lucky that I came across this honest/truthful Washington Post article. My husband and I both have a goal to own a completely paid for home ideally by the time we are in our 50s and this article helps me understand why I must try harder towards that goal. However, I hope that the seniors featured in this article go on to prosper andor find a place andor area/region within the U.S. that they both like to live and is affordable for the money that they have.

Congratulations to Manuel Franco for his lottery won and his newfound millionaire status. I believe that this was the same person referenced in another article who bravely/courageously admitted that he was just trying to save up at least 1000 dollars or more when he unexpectedly won the lottery.

Youtube Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum

I am fortunate to have had the chance to visit the National Air and Space Museum in the metropolitan Washington D.C. area multiple times within the past few years. One of the visits that influenced me to check out the National Air and Space Museum multiple times was when my husband and I visited around the November 2014 timeframe for my birthday. We also have had a chance to recently visit less than 2 to 3 months ago.

I admit that the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington D.C. is another museum that I have been to with my husband multiple times. There are good mixes of a variety of exhibits there. However one of the few caveats is that on each visit I have yet to find anything related to the Menominee Indian Tribe. I was naturally a little curious to see if there was anything about the Menominee Indian Tribe because my late biological mother, my late maternal biological grandmother and multiple members of my biological mother’s family have Menominee Indian ancestry.

youtube link of National Museum of the American Indian via Cspan One of the multiple beneficial/positive things to living in the metro Washington D.C. area are easy proximity to public transportation and places to go to including the malls. I happen to find out that the Tysons Corner Center mall (in Mclean Virginia) is easy to get to after a friend told me about where Tysons Corner Center mall is at by the 2014 timeframe. Despite this mall being a distance from where my husband and I live this mall has a great mix of places inside it. Youtube link The New Tysons Corner Center via the youtube channel the Tysons Corner Center My husband and I are both at least somewhat familiar with Arlington Virginia because since around the 2010/2011 timeframe we have at times went to the Pentagon City mall in Arlington Virginia plus some of his college classes that he attended between the 2010 to 2012 timeframe were in Arlington Virginia. However, I still found this youtube video of Arlington Virginia Exploring Memorials Events Dining and Neighborhoods Near Washington DC (via the Visit the USA channel) very informative. I am glad to have spotted this video on youtube featuring the Westfield Wheaton mall in Wheaton Maryland. There are a strong variety of grocery shopping places to go to with the inclusion of Costo, Giants and Safeway plus multiple options of places to eat and shop at. Youtube channel of Wheaton Mall Lara Findeisen This youtube video is pretty brief though it does capture a good view from above the University of Maryland College Park campus. I feel fortunate that I have been a University of Maryland College Park staff employee for 2 years and 9 months. Maryland From Above via UMD youtube channel

OH MY GOSH, THANK YOU FOR THE TAG!

(It’s nice to see someone acknowledge my existence... :P)

Anyway, I don’t exactly know how this works, so I’ll just answer all the questions my tagger did and maybe a couple more at the end. (wow this is exciting :D)

Okay then.

Name: I’m Konrad, and my gamertag/username is Fluffybombs on most sites.

Height: I’m 6′ 2″ (yeh I’m tall :L)

Hogwarts House: Slytherin. But I’m the Slytherin that always hangs out with the Griffindor kids and doesn’t care about the Dark Side of the Force or whatever. (sorry to all the geeks that just cringed at the cross-fandom reference there, but I stand by the metaphor)

Go-to SSBB character: I played a Kirby main in Brawl, so I’ll always feel comfortable with him, although I probably use Toon Link more often in competitive matches, but since Smash 4 came out, Pikachu is my main, so I’d feel okay playing Brawl with Pikachu too.

Fictional character I’d date: I don’t know, honestly. Dating is weird. I feel like there a lot of characters I’d get along with from all kinds of fandoms, but I’m not sure if there’s any I’d want to date. When I figure out how dating works I might have an idea. :L

Favorite band or artist: I like all kinds of music, and as an artist and budding music producer myself, I have a lot of respect for a lot of different artists, but a few honorable mentions (I suppose) would have to go to Owl City (with his amazing and inspiring music), Tally Hall (the only actual band I listen to), Daft Punk (just because), and Pentatonix (for being amazing singers that inspire me to push my range every day :D)

When did I make this blog: Close to four years ago I guess? Pretty soon after I got my laptop, my sister told me I should set up a Tumblr, so I guess that was around 3.5-ish years ago.

How many blogs do I follow: 896 (Is that a lot? I feel like that’s a lot. :/ ) And that’s with 15,097 likes, as of first making this post, so I don’t know if that a normal ratio or whatever, but there you go.

Do I get asks on a regular basis: Nope! I never get anything! I’ve only ever even been mentioned twice, which is why I was so excited to get this! :D Thanks again! (My followers are good to me, though. :L When I’m regularly posting I get about 15-20 notes a week, so thanks again, guys!)

Aesthetic: Bright artsy stuff, weapons, dragons (woo dragons!), anything with that “valor” type glory, nerdy tech stuff, cute stuff, unironic glitter, really ironic glitter, super dark and legitimately edgy stuff... but with one really lighthearted thing thrown in, super bizarre and random junk, and all of these things together, especially the cute-but-also-hardcore feel, also, tiny birbs peeking out from places. (idk, it’s a thing)

BONUS QUESTIONS So, I’m just gonna add these because I’m legitimately curious and I’m not sure how, officially, this is supposed to work. Answer these if you want, but I guess since all the questions are optional... idk, just... here they are. Favorite emoticon/emoji: I don’t really use emoji that often, and when I can I use emoticons instead, so my favorite emoticon is :L because no one else really uses it, and it pretty much exactly expresses my feelings about everything in existence always. (on another note, it’s weird that text emoji are called emoticons when they actually have the word “icon“ in the name, which implies a picture... but I guess emoji is Japanese... or...? idk I’m not gonna try to understand it, but if someone feels like telling me, feel free) Favorite food: Well, this is kind of a trick question from me, because I don’t really have a favorite food, but I would like to know what your favorite foods are, and I’d also like to say that even though there are lots of foods I like, food is the best when it actually feels healthy to eat. I’m not sure if that makes sense to anyone else, but that’s what I like. Social Label - Are you a geek? Nerd? Jock? What?: Not that this is important, but again, I’m curious. I’m mostly a geek, but I’m enough of a nerd that I’m a nerd to my geek friends and welcome amongst the nerds. I don’t know how strongly established amongst the Internet and Tumblr these labels are, so I don’t expect thems to be definitive. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Pet peeve: I’m kinda surprised this isn’t on here, so I thought I’d add it. So mostly my peeves are related to using poor grammar, or when companies spell something wrong on purpose (Krazy Glue, etc), but the paramount of all of those is when people call LEGO bricks legos (idk why but I can’t let it go). It’s also irritating when people who claim to be serious fans can’t pronounce Pokémon (poh-kay-mon, btw) and other stuff like that, but I feel like maybe that’s different. Allergies: (I have lots so I want to hear about yours. :D) I’m going to list all my dietary modifications, but technically not all of them are due to my allergies. So, I’m allergic to most preservatives, and hydrogenated oils, and basically everything artificial or synthetic, as well as peanuts (but only a little), and raspberry products (pretty much anything made of or with raspberries, but not raspberries themselves). I also don’t drink milk, because my sister is lactose intolerant (even though she’s the only one in the house who drinks milk now), and I have a hypersensitivity to mold/maybe other things, so I have an allergic reaction sometimes when I eat melon that isn’t super fresh. Also, I don’t eat beef or pork, which is just a diet I grew up on because that is how my mother chooses to eat. There’s no term for it, that I’m aware of, other than pseudovegetarian or something, and my friends frequently think I’m vegetarian even though I’m not. Also, I’m hypoglycemic, but I won’t get into that.

Why did I join Tumblr: Like I said before, my sister encouraged me to start my account, but I had already planned to, it was just a matter of waiting for the appropriate time. I joined Tumblr partly as a consumer, looking for art blogs to inspire me, and people to meet and befriend, but mostly I came here to start my art blog and get my art out there. Welp, I guess that’s it for questions. Feel free to add you own when you answer, you have my seal of approval! :L Tag 10 followers you want to know better! Ah ha! And now the moment of truth! I tag @slushguppyofficial @artsyrobo @poketastic @everybodylovespokemon @justanotherloserwithoutfriends @sphorus @dalvexs and @ginger-bacca

Obviously, all my followers are welcome to participate, and to those that were tagged, don’t feel obligated to answer all the questions if you don’t want. Thanks again for the tag! It was great fun to be part of this! :D

#I'm so excited that I don't even know what to tag this #um #idec #yay #:L #tagged
