I’m just a 40-something bearded guy trying to get a fresh start.

Ich mag deine Freundin nicht

Ow. I slept way wrong last night and I hurt this morning. I’m sure it’ll go away as I start moving today. But for right now it hurts. I don’t think I moved too much in the night. I was mentally exhausted. It was a long day at work, yet the day seemed to move mostly quickly.

It looks like it rained a little before we woke up this morning. I think it’s supposed to be a rainy day for most of the day today. It’s fall, and we’re getting all the rain that we should’ve got in the spring.

After a long day, I struggled to find something mindless to enjoy. I tried Dark, but I was having trouble concentrating on it. Finally, I found a tried and true movie – Hackers. While the technology doesn’t really hold up, it’s still a great movie.

Back to work with the whole office today. That should be interesting. I have a feeling a lot will be started, and not a lot will be completed. Thems the breaks. We’ll get through the day.

But before all that can happen: coffee.

Give me the coffee.

You are my fire the one desire

Good morning my friends. Everyone in The Flat is awake, and Chaucer has all ready tossed his breakfast. So it’s pretty much another day here in TinyTown. Fun huh?

I think I got up in the night. The clock either said 12:47, or 2:47. I didn’t dwell on the clock when I got up to go to the bathroom. Knowing my bladder, and the highness, I’d be betting it was 12:47. But I climbed back into bed, and I fell back asleep pretty quickly. Only because when I climbed back into bed, I shut the heat off to my side. It was warm lemme tell you.

But I fell back to sleep. It was that weird temperature – I was either cold or too warm. Thems the breaks I guess. I think the next time I got up was just a few minutes before the alarm went off.

Crystal got some Halloween costumes at the second hand store yesterday. Including one that I just told her just get it. You’re coming up with all these funny ideas, so just get it! Spoiler alert: she got it.

So it’s a grey day here. It’s ok. I have to be back at work for a full day today. Let’s get the day started, so the day will be over!

But first: coffee.

I’m in a position where people that’s older than me look at me as a leader

Awake. I can’t remember if I got up in the night. I don’t think I did, but you never know. Course, I probably did. It’s a bright and sunny day out there so far, and I can hear the garbage truck toodling around. The coffee has been brewed, and like I said a little earlier, it’s a very nice fall day so far. I’ll have to look at the weather app in a little bit.

Lemme tell you, yesterday was a nice relaxing day. We took turns playing some Skyrim, and TotK. We just lazed around not really doing too much of anything. We had brunch, which was very good, and for dinner, Crystal was very excited about having some leftover pizza, while I had some chicken wings.

Back to work again this morning. I don’t want to dwell on that, just dwelling on thought that I’ll just be there until noon. Shouldn’t be too bad of a day. Then we can go to the second hand store, and slightly extend the weekend.

But I need to do a couple of morning chores, happy Tuesday my friends. Let’s kick some ass

Lips as sweet as candy

Here we go again. Another Monday. A new week is on our doorstep. But wait, did y’all see the score of the Dolphins game from yesterday?

That’s insane, huh? Miami must have done the Annexation of Cuba. It’s the only way they could’ve won by that high of a score. So yeah, that came from out of nowhere for sure.

Yesterday was pretty nice. I did the chores through out the morning, and the beautiful one played some Skyrim. She was kicking some ass, killing some random people so she could be cool and fit in with her new friends that she’s making. I’m happy that she’s fitting in. Usually, overachievers don’t get to fit in with the others, but she’s doing very well.

After Skyrim, we went over to Shady Acres for dinner. It’s always quiet over there. Mom talked to one of the cats as she just randomly made a pie for desert. A couple weeks ago we helped to pick the apples from the tree in the back. She’s been drying apples, and all that. She has a ton of apples to still process.

Short story long, the pie was very good. I enjoyed it. The whole dinner was really good.

I can’t talk for Crystal, but I slept like the dead. I did get up in the night, I’m still refusing to look at the clock. I did my thing, and as I’m walking back, I step on a giant carrot cat toy, which made some noise, but not enough to wake up Crystal, or the kittens.

And now here we are. It’s brunch day. That’ll start in a few hours. Who knows what’s on the deck for today. So far, I can’t think of anything that I have to do today. so let’s just play it by ear.
