Thank god it’s Friyay. I’m tired, man. It’s been a long long ass week. I’ve spentnkosy of my days this week, working second shift. The closing shift. Today, I got to experience (again) the fun of closing, and then the next day opening. Spoiler alert, it wasn’t much fun at…

Two steppin’ on the table, she don’t need a dance floor Oh my, good Lord

Shawshank, May 5, 2024

It is bright out there. Very bright. And so far, warm out there. I opened the window for the kittens. Both kittens are sitting on the table looking out the window. The coffee has been brewed and we’re quietly consuming. Dateline is playing on TV. Soon, chores will start. I’ll…
