You got me misunderstood, but at least I look this good

A rare day off during the week appears!

Good morning everyone, it’s bright, it’s sunny, and more importantly- it’s not raining. I don’t think that there’s even a cloud in the sky. The cats are looking out the back door.

We went to bed a couple of minutes early last night. That was fine by me, I was starting to fall asleep watching TikToks. So we climbed into bed, where I immediately passed out. I did get up sometime in the night to go to the bathroom, but made it back into bed and fell right back asleep.

I was getting two schedules mixed up. I knew that today was a day off, but I was trying to figure out where an 8-4 shift factored into my schedule this week. It was stressing me out to the point that I almost got out of bed a handful of time to look at the schedule. But I didn’t. I swallowed the stress of not knowing, and looked this morning. The 8-4 shift is next week. Not this week.

Problem solved.

We only have a couple of things planned today. Crystal has an order of hair that should be here this afternoon. We’ll be heading to the second hand store. I have one or two items to drop off there, and we’ll pop over to Shady Acres to reset an old iPad.

And that’s the day. Would you like some more coffee? Yas Queen, I do want some more coffee.

Hey you, always on the run, gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun

Good morning, hap hap happy Monday. We’re all awake here, and there’s some pretty angry looking clouds out there this morning. There’s a chance that sometime today, there should possibly be some rain. I’ll believe it when I’m standing outside in the rain.

But for right now, it’s coffee time.

There weekend was really nice. We did the grocery thing, and the video game thing pretty much all weekend. I feel that the weekend was pretty good, but just a little too short.

Working the closing shift today. So I’ll be having lunch at the flat before going in. Which is ok, because I have the left over Chinese food from Saturday waiting for me to tuck into it.

I need to refill my coffee cup. I also need to get dressed. Mondays, am I right?!

Good sunny morning all you Sunday party people. The Flat is awake. Everyone knows where Pippin is – on the table at the back door. She’ll be in the same place for the next couple of months. I think Chaucer is sitting with her. He’s enjoying the bright and warms sun.

Yesterday was a pretty good day. At 10ish, my mom pulled up, and we were off to SlightlyBiggerTown for much needed supplies. We hit a couple of stores, and then we found ourselves in the grocery store. It was a little busier than normal. But we got in and out pretty quickly.

From there it was just a quick stop at the “pharmacy”. I grabbed the carts, and Crystal grabbed the flower. We looked around a little, and I jokingly asked if there was any 420 freebies. We got a patch, and a small rolling tray. Win-win if you ask me.

With one quick stop to go, we popped over to Subway, and I quickly hopped out and grabbed some lunch for us. They remodelled the restaurant, and then also added like 5 or 6 new sandwiches to the menu. I tried the new Nashville Hot sub, and I ordered Crystal her usual. I should’ve stuck with my usual. The Nashville Hot was too bad, but I don’t think that I’d order it again.

With that, we were on our way back to TinyTown. I helped unload the groceries, and Crystal suggested that I ride back with mom to help her unload her groceries. I managed to get almost all the groceries in at once. With the second trip finished, I walked back to the Flat.

After lunch, in an attempt to not fall asleep, I picked up the controller and turned on FireLight, Fleshlight, I can’t remember the name of the game, but it’s a very fun game. I’m trailing behind Crystal, but that’s ok. We’re both playing totally different characters – hers, an engineer, and me um, gangster? I dunno. I have two guns, and I’m really good at crowd control. However, Crystal has me beat hands down at DPS.

I’m having a blast. I have a companion Llama named Pancakes.

Not much on deck for today. I might open a window! We’ll see. I have some chores and stuff to do this morning, plus brunch! Woot brunch!

Happy Sunday if you made it this far!

Good morning from a bright and sunny TinyTown. Pippin begged for the table. Begged. So the table is set up at the back door. Even Chaucer climbed up there to enjoy the sunrise. It’s chilly out, but with the sun streaming in, it shouldn’t make the house cooler. And they’re happy, and not running around all crazy like.

I slept like the dead. And I got to sleep in. Oh lawd, it felt great to sleep past 4:30. We’re all awake now. The coffee has been brewed, and is currently being consumed. In a couple of hours, we’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown for supplies, and food, and all that happy horseshit. Mom had texted a couple of days ago asking if we wanted to go with her. Sure, why not. So in a couple of hours we’ll be off. Mom needs to get out of the house for a little while, and so do we.

It’s win-win, if you ask me.

Other than that, it’s gonna be a low key weekend. Chores, of course. But that’ll be tomorrow. My dad has started taking new meds, and if we’re feeling sick with the flu, cold, whatever – we’re to stay away, because these pills are going to lower his immune system, I think. We’re both pretty good here, so we might go tomorrow. It really depends on my parents. We’re not sick here, just allergies.
