I don’t care that you’re a stoner red wine supernova, fall right into me

Shawshank, August 15, 2024

I don’t even know what day it is today. That’s what happens when you work the weekend. Weekdays don’t seem to matter too much. Either way, the work day is complete. And it was a much better day today. We both didn’t sleep all that great last night. I was up around 12:30, because my…

When my mind is running wild, could you help me slow it down?

Shawshank, August 14, 2024

Finally home from work. It was a whole lotta nothing today. Unloaded two trucks. The second one, without help until second shift got in. Even so, at that point, I only had 9 boxes of freight to go. I called out, asking for help twice. Didn’t receive it. The last two days were great. We…

Who can blame a girl? Call me hot, not pretty

Shawshank, August 10, 2024

I got up 2 minutes before my alarm went off this morning. I fumbled to shut the alarm off, and stumbled into the bathroom. I was a little discombobulated this morning. More on that later. I turned on the coffee pot, waited, and poured myself a cuppa. I sat down, and told myself that it’s…
