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

Will drin wohnen fröhlich Frommes Kind wie selig

Welp, I’m awake. Chaucer only dropped a short single last night, so we were able to fall asleep quickly. There was no dawn release, so we were able to sleep in to the normal wake up time.

Work wasn’t too bad yesterday evening. It’s was steady at points, but we had a little bit of down time as well it was a really good mix of people coming through and we were able to get out on time.

Work again tonight, but thankfully I’ll have tomorrow off, and then I’m working Sunday, and possibly Monday then I’m off for the Christmas week. W00t!

Plus, I have to figure out what to have for lunch today. My fat ass ate Crystal’s lunches and I feel bad about that. Shit.

To hear sleigh bells in the snow

Morning.

Chaucer dropped a double album last night and this morning.

But we’re awake and rip-roaring ready to start the day! Woohoo! It’s a brand new day! It’s a brand new day covered in snow. The app says we had just over 10inches of snow. But I haven’t been out there to see what actually fell.

It started about 4 hours before we closed last night. And still people came even though the snow was flying, you just needed that Fresca, didn’t you. 🤣but we survived the night and made it home. The wind was blowing or I think the snow would’ve accumulated more. But it still looks pretty high out there.

I’ll shovel and clean off the car a little later.

But for right now, kitties, and coffee, and the Beautiful One.

But maybe just a half a drink more

There’s an asshole on my lap this morning. Instead of just coming in the bedroom last night, Chaucer decided to drop a double live album between last night and this morning. I’m not even sure if he even came to bed. I’m thinking it was maybe because I opened for 4 days last week.

Who knows. All I know he’s sitting as proud and punch on my lap now. Little does he know, I need more coffee.

But anyways, work was work, but the time always goes pretty quickly on nights. It wasn’t bad weather wise at work, but as the night went on, the winds started to blow harder and harder.

Back to work again this afternoon. Apparently tonight is the start of snowmageddon. We’re expecting a good number of inches over the next three days.

Tonight
Tomorrow
Friday

It’s gonna be a wild couple of days if the predictions will be true. So we’ll see. Yay shovelling.

Have a holly jolly Christmas this year

Who has two thumbs and already has a cat on my lap?

I slept like the dead last night. But that was to be expected. Up at 4:30, work all day. Come home, and hang out with the beautiful one until bedtime. So yeah I was up for a few hours yesterday. But I slept, and once I can get my eyes to focus at the same time, I’ll be right as rain.

I’m closing for the rest of the week. Then I have Saturday off, work all day Sunday, then I’ll be on a bit of a winter holiday. After last year of working Christmas and New Year’s Eve, BossLady has given me a couple days off during both holiday weeks. So that’s a noice thing for sure.

But all that hinges on me actually getting up and getting some more coffee. I hate having to move a cat, especially Chaucer, but this will be service a dual purpose: bathroom, and coffee.
