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

I don’t walk through metal detectors it’s ’cause I’m always rockin’ Chrome

Well, I couldn’t find Jock Jams 17. But I did pick up cake mix, frosting, and another special gift for The Beautiful One. It will not be wrapped because it’s meant to be used right away.

I passed right out when we went to bed last night. So much so, I don’t think I moved once I fell asleep. So my back is a little twitchy but it’s not too bad. I’ll take something next time I get up. in fact the next time I get up I think I might have to take some bacon out of the freezer

Work was wicked cold out last night. Mom had texted saying that I could use her truck if the Hot Mess wouldn’t start. Well, long story short, I walked up and grabbed it right before work, and it’s parked out beside our place.

It’s chore day today. Just like if it was Sunday. I’ll start the laundry in a little while. Other than that I will try to resist giving Crystal her present today.

It’s wrapped and everything.

Must remember her card that’s been in the cupboard for a year now.

It’s bright, and motherfuckin cold out there. Currently it’s sitting at -20°f out there. That’s not very respectful of the individual today. But we’ll deal with the cold. I close tonight, then I have the next couple of days off.

So for the next couple of days, I need to get:

  • Cake mix
  • Frosting
  • Dill pickle pistachios
  • Jock Jams 17

You see in order to make sure the Beautiful One has an amazing birthday on Wednesday. The birthday present has been in the closet here for about a week, and it’s already wrapped. I had to improvise, adapt, and overcome the fact that I didn’t have wrapping paper. I’m sure she’ll be impressed with what I did.

But that’s all I have going on. I just got a text from my mom telling me if the Hot Mess won’t start to give her a call, and I can use her truck. Let’s hope that the Hot Mess will actually start. I have faith, playa!

I hope all y’all have a great day. Stay warm, and keep your stick on the ice. Happy Monday!

Well, hello there. Are you here for the listening party for Chaucer’s new album? I’m so sorry, but the listening party, and launch have come to a close. Sales have been good on the new album. But now he’s sitting in between us smug.

Anyways, welcome to a dark Sunday. The sun hasn’t come up so it’s peaceful and dark out there. Soon, the sun will rise, and the day will start. Work today. It’s a 10-6 shift, and they usually go pretty quickly. So yeah, in a little bit, I’ll get dressed and have something to eat, and then I’ll be off.

I hear the Superb Owl will be playing today. I don’t really care about the teams playing but maybe Crystal will maybe be able to find a livestream of the halftime show. When I get home tonight I’ll try to find a compilation of the commercials.

But before all that is possible, I’m going to need some coffee in me. Happy Sunday. Happy National Pizza Day!

I recommend walking around naked in your living room yeah

Hey hey. It’s tired Shawshank. I was up at the ass crack of dawn today, and got ready for work. Before I knew it, I was at work and on top of the fuel storage to measure how much gas and diesel we have on hand.

Literally 100s of litres.

Work actually went pretty quickly. With the sun rising earlier, people in town are awake and moving a little early, so they come to us to get gas and snacks first thing.

After work I texted Crystal, who slept like a bag of shiz all night and we made the half hourish trip to SlightlyBiggerTown for some much needed supplies. With supplies in hand, we quickly stopped at Subway for lunch/dinner and came home.

We’ve eaten and now Crystal is playing Slay the Spire. I asked her to do whatever she wanted as she had a terrible sleep last night. I might even skip a shower, and let her take a bath tonight. To help her relax a little more.

Happy Saturday y’all. Back working again tomorrow.
