‘Cause all week long, I’ve been waitin’ for you and me girl

It’s really nice, when you wake up, and the sun is out. Good morning, my friends. Welcome to Saturday! It’s bright and sunny, but I believe that it’s once again, below freezing, and Crystal says that there’s a snow flake next to the day in her weather app.

Remember what I’ve told you;

Winter is coming.

But, yeah. It’s like, totally the weekend! And even better, we have no plans, and a huge bag of commas, so we’ll be having a whole lot of fun, just throwing commas everywhere.

Like I said, we have no plans for today. Well, we do have a bit of a plan – we’re probably not going to get dressed. I do have to go out and grab milk, because I forgot to get the milk that’s in the fridge at work. I remembered once I got home last night. So yeah, I’ll pop out later to get some.

I need more coffee, but I have a Chaucer laying on my lap. I gave him some pets and he got up. But he’s eyeing my lap again.

So yeah, the day is ours.

Good morning motherfuckers! It’s time to get up and greet the day! Pippin begged, so she’s on the table looking out the back door. It’s warmish out there, but it’s windy. I’ll take it. It’s warmish out.

Went to bed at the time that would indicate that I’d be getting up at 4:30. I was just too tired to stay awake. Of course for the first minute or two, I was wide awake. Then I shifted just a little bit, and I was out like a light. I think I got up in the night, and I know I was up just a little bit early. But here we are, the sun is just about up, and yeah, the day has started.

Last night we went back to the restaurant, and had a plate of fries with a burger. It was pretty yummy. And filling. It’s been a while. Afterwards, we just came home. I played a little bit of NMS, and Crystal took a bath.

And now here we are. I’ll be working late tonight, and for the rest of next week as well. It’s ok, hopefully, the day will move a little quicker than yesterday morning. We’ll see.

Happy Friyay everyone!

Do ya see the deer in the featured image? I took that picture a couple of days ago. Before the snow came back. It was back with a vengeance this morning. Huge flakes. Thankfully, we’re above freezing, so there was no accumulation. But Jesus Christ, can this fucking snow stop anytime soon?

5 days until spring.

Winter is coming.

I think I actually slept through the night last night. I tried drinking less water before bed, and I think maybe that helped. It was nice to be surprised by the alarm this morning.

It still doesn’t make it easier to roll out of bed at 4:30. I’m closing tomorrow, so I can “sleep in” until 7. That’ll feel nice. But the trade off is, I have to work until 9. That’s not cool in my books.

I’d prefer to stay on first shift, but other people need the hours too.

The newest hire, one I didn’t even have a chance to add to the cast of characters here, it’s her last day at the store. She doesn’t know this yet, but tomorrow morning, she’s gonna be fired. Everyone was complaining about working with her.

You got me stuck on the thought of you

Good morning afternoon everyone. Yep, I’m home from work. I’m tired. Not as tired as Crystal, mind you. But tired nonetheless. I think I got up around 2 or 3, to go to the bathroom.

I navigate at night using my spidey sense, and not my eyes.

After I was done, I crawled back into bed, and I think fell asleep. But it wasn’t a deep restful sleep or anything. Just sleep. So we’re all a little tired.

I don’t really have a lot to report in. My dad is still sick, and will probably get worse. I don’t want to talk about it, because I will cry, and it’ll ruin the whole day. So yeah, we’ll leave it at that.
