Everybody knows that smokin’ ain’t allowed in school

Shawshank, January 6, 2024

Here we are again. It’s dark, and the coffee has been brewed. Welcome to another day in the life living in TinyTown. We’re both awake, and it’s dark out. I got up sometime in the night to go to the bathroom. I refused to look at the clock, telling myself…
