And when you’re gone, we want you all to know

Shawshank, October 24, 2024

Yep, here I am. Awake. Not liking it at all. Up this morning at 4:30am. Yep, the one opening shift in the last 2-3 weeks. I much prefer the closing shift. Just a little more relaxed without the manager there. So it goes. But I’m at home, and I have a Chaucer on my lap.…

Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains

Shawshank, October 23, 2024

Good morning everyone. It’s bright and sunny out there this morning. We’ll be heading out in a few hours – to other SlightlyBiggerTown to look for something for my mom’s birthday, and we’ll check out the second hand store, and the discount store. We’ll grab Subway for lunch. Yum! Work wasn’t too bad last night.…

But there’s no man as terrified as the man who stands to lose you

I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest

Shawshank, October 20, 2024

I’m awake. The bed was so snuggly, I didn’t want to leave. But I had to. I got shit to do. But currently I have Chaucer holding me down. He’s snuggled right in. I slept like the dead. Today, we don’t have too much on our table. I have laundry to do. Brunch to cook,…

We were flung into dance as the train jigged and reeled

Shawshank, October 19, 2024

I made it to work on time, and proceeded to do all the opening stuff related to opening a retail establishment. I got that done, and one or two bonus tasks, and then we were open. It was slow at the beginning, but slowly, it picked up. Thankfully, the opening shift is only 7 hours.…
