But if I smell like smoke, it’s only ’cause I’ve been through hell

What the shit is this?

It’s goddamn May 17, in the year of our lord, 2026.

Why for the love of pop tarts, is it snowing in May? Yesterday, was haha it’s funny that it snowed in the night. Now, it’s still coming down with huge flakes. And, according to the weather app, it’s supposed to snow all fucking day. Nothing is supposed to stick, but still. It’s like 2 weeks until my birthday. I’ve only had snow on my birthday once, and that was just because of a really long winter, in Yellowknife.

After work yesterday, we drove to SlightlyBiggerTown to pick up some much needed drugs and food. It was actually a really nice drive. Not too bright, or windy either. We were in and out of town in a couple of hours.

Back to work all day today. But awesomely, it’s me and another keyholder, so it should be (knocks on wood) a really nice day. Me and the co-worker get a long pretty good, and actually worked together for most the week.

So let’s get this day started.

Well the start of my sleep was amazing. Then I woke up. I refused to look at the time, figuring I would just fall asleep.

Not really.

Until I heard the pet feeder go off at 5:30, then I could fall back asleep. For a half hour. Yep, it’s my once monthly up early during the week. I’m working the mid-shift today. And, I believe, opening tomorrow.

We didn’t do too much of anything yesterday, other than listen to then high winds. We’ve been in orange level winds all day yesterday. Gusts up to 110kph. They’ve slowed today. I believe the gusts are going to be up to around 50kph.

We also popped over to the second hand store, but left with nothing. We just didn’t see anything that jumped out at us. Sometimes that’s the case.

Injecting coffee into my veins this morning. But at least it’s bright and sunny out there. Happy Friyay!

God, guns, country bumper sticker on the back

Good morning my friends. Podrick was a gentleman this morning, and while it sounded like he was ripping the place down, he was actually pretty good. He pulled the towels down in the bathroom, but I think Pippin was the one to open the cabinet door.

We’re under a wind warning today. Winds up to 90kph, gusting to 110kph. Everyone is freaking out, and I’m thinking that sounds like it’s strong, until I converted to 🦅. 110kph is like 68mph. So it’s not that bad. So yeah it’s supposed to be windy, but right now it’s just a little breezy.

I’m on a day off today, with absolutely nothing planned. Wait, no. I have something planned. Later, when it opens, we’ll head over to the second hand store to see what treasures they have waiting for us today. Other than that, nothing. I’m only putting my shoes on once today.

I thought that I had another paragraph in me, but alas, earwax. Nothing else is in my mostly empty mind. So yeah, happy Thursday. Have another cup of coffee. You deserve it.

Also, I think this is my 2100th post. If it is, I’ll update it, after I get the notification.

I’m drunk and I’m ready to leave and you look like you love me

Good morning my friends. We had a snuggling bed this morning. Miss Pippin snuggled behind my knees. I rolled over after a while, and she came up and under the blankets to snuggle a little more, while Podrick ran around playing with a catnip stick, and a soda cap.

It’s another bright and sunny day out there. The back door is already open, and the kitties are sitting together to enjoy the sun, and the morning smells.

One more shift, and I get the day off. The trade off is that I’m working all weekend. I can’t complain though, it’s only one full weekend a month. And I don’t mind working Saturday mornings. I much prefer Saturday mornings vs. Saturday afternoons.

So let’s get the day started, and refill our coffee cups. It’s Wednesday my dudes.

Ahhhhh!
