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

Me and my friends understand the future I see the strings that control the system

Good Friyay morning my friends. I have The Beautiful One sitting next to me, Chaucer in between us, and the tiny Pippin lounging on top of me. It doesn’t look to windy out there yet.

It’s supposed to start to snow sometime today. The forecast has been changing a little every time I open the app. So I’ll open it after this, and that’s what I’ll believe for the rest of the day.

We actually have things to do today. We’re heading to SlightlyBiggerTown for some much needed supplies and just to get out of the house for a little bit. It’ll be a nice day so we’ll have a good fun clean time.

Now I just need to be able to focus my eyes, and to do that I just need to consume more coffee.

Chore day yesterday was a success yesterday. Laundry and brunch went off without a hitch. All the clothes are fresh and clean. And everything put away before our future selves ahead to take care of it. A little new years present for us.

It’s warmer out there, but is supposed to be pretty windy for the whole day. That’s ok, I can deal with wind, we do here every day especially in the winter time. It always seems to be a slight breeze out side in the winter time.

We ate like kings yesterday. For brunch, it was the usual. Bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns for me. For Crystal it was a blueberry bagel, and a couple slices of bacon. Dinner was extraordinary – scalloped potatoes, peas, and pork chops. Mmm good!

Happy Thursday y’all!

Midnight, and I’m a-waitin’ on the twelve-oh-five

The Beautiful One let me sleep in. I was able to ignore Chaucer in full asshole mode this morning. Repeatedly. For a cat that never makes a sound sure loves to scream just as we go to sleep, and again when he thinks we should get up.

Good times.

Work was a little crazier than the last couple of days. It seems like suddenly everyone remembered that they haven’t been out the house for like 4 days and they knew the exact place they wanted to go. My store. We also had two deliveries arrive within a half hour of each other. So yeah it was a crazy afternoon.

But since I didn’t have Sunday off, I’ll be doing all Sundays tasks today. So here I come laundry! I’ve run out of my thicker socks. So it’ll be nice to get them back again.

So yeah relaxing day. Maybe I’ll try and fight the big boss in Persona 5. We’ll see. Let’s get chore day started!

And some more coffee please.

I really can’t stay baby, it’s cold outside

It was a tossy turny night last night. I just couldn’t really find a comfortable position. Then there was Chaucer singing as we were falling asleep. I’d like to hope that he eventually made it up on the bed. I don’t think it was up when I got up around 1ish to use the bathroom.

Work wasn’t too bad last night. It was a quiet night. We were expecting the Pepsi truck last night, but it never showed up. I’m sure that it’ll show up tonight either before or after the other truck that we’re expecting. Fun times.

I have Pippin snuggled up on my legs this morning. Chaucer has mountain climbed on to Crystal’s lap, so each kitty is very happy now. Pippin won’t be too happy when I get up in a couple minutes.

So yeah that’s the updates from north of the wall. Hopefully your Tuesday will be a great day, and time will move quickly.
