I’m just bitching in this post. Nothing to see here. Move along. I’m tired. I don’t think I’m sleeping well at all. It’s also cold out there with high winds. So all the old people have to come in and have a pithy comment about how it’s not spring and…

My wife leaned over, and she whispered, “I love you”. I held her close, we danced

Shawshank, April 12, 2024

Fuck yeah, Friyay. It’s finally here. And all I would like to do is nap, which I might do. We’ll see. Work wasn’t too bad today, busier than the last couple of days, which was nice. I helped out BossLady by doing the last minute grocery order, which she then…
