This is my bohème, so drink it up, my friend

Shawshank, May 16, 2024

I’m awake, but I’m not liking it. I didn’t sleep great. My shoulder was bothering me. But I couldn’t breathe on one side. So I rolled over on to the bad shoulder. I usually sleep good on that side. I roll over, and then my shoulder just screams. So I…

Don’t tell us you need us ’cause we’re the ship of fools

Shawshank, May 15, 2024

Good morning. The rain/mist has seemed to have stopped for the time being. Just a slight breeze outside. Pippin is on the table looking outside. Chaucer really wants in my lap. Crystal is still asleep in the bedroom. I’m trying to be quiet for her. Work was bananas yesterday. We…

Shawshank, May 12, 2024

Good morning everyone. I struggled to stay asleep and in bed until 7:30. I guess that’s as late as I can sleep in now. But it’s not too bad. I get to sleep in, but now lose a lot of time by being unconscious. It’s almost a win-win. The lose-lose…

We’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there

Shawshank, May 11, 2024

Well hello there. I was a rebel, and last night I shut off the alarm in hopes of sleeping in a little bit. I figured that I’d sleep until 8 at the latest. I was up at 6:30. I fell back asleep and made it to wait for it, 7:30….
