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

Don’t act like you ain’t help me pull that bottle off the shelf

I’m awake, groggy, and annoyed that I slept in so much. I mean, what a waste of a morning. Now I feel behind the 8-ball. Technically we should be leaving for SlightlyBiggerTown in about 40 minutes, but neither of us are dressed, and there’s still coffee to drink. And I have to be able to focus my eyes properly. I also have to finish my shopping list as well.

The storms came through last night. I was a little tossy turny for most of the night. I was having a little trouble staying asleep, as my nose was either totally stuffed up, or I was having to sniff so my nose wouldn’t drain itself. I refused to get up. I just wanted to sleep. I think I was up around midnight. I listened for a little bit, then fell back asleep for a bit.

So yeah, I’ve lost a couple of hours of daylight. So I need to suck back some more coffee and to get dressed. It’s gray and wind out there. Perfect day to drive and get groceries. It looks like it’ll be warm, and hopefully not too humid. Happy weekend off everyone.

I’ve tasted blood and I want more (more, more, more)

Well well well, hello there Friyay. Finally you’ve arrived. I’ve just woken up. The sun is shining, and I’m trying my hardest to focus my friggin eyes. It looks like it’ll be a nice day out there.

I just have one more shift, and it’s the weekend. I just have to live through it. It’s a closing shift. Last night wasn’t too bad. I wasn’t feeling even 25%, and it was a slow day, which was amazing. I’ll be ready for today.

Ima gonna kick Fridays ass.

Ben and Jen have broken up, yet again. I’m thinking it was the Dunkings commercial. Make way for the Boston massacre! I’d leave Jen for the game as well. Good riddance to Jen. Ben has Matt, once they realize that, shit’ll get better.

It’s almost the weekend. Thank the gods for that. It’s a big change from days to nights, I pretty much forgot about that. But I survived the night, and tonight and tomorrow, I’ll be the one in charge. Yay.

The air pressure has changed again, Crystal is coughing like a mad woman, and I’m stuffed up, but it’s moving a little bit. Hopefully I can drain my face.

It’s a little gray out there, but eventually that’s supposed to change, and be bright and sunny.

I’m going to have more coffee, so I can wake up. Yay for waking up. Bah.

Fire up that loud another round of shots turn down for what?

Ahhhhh. Crystal let me sleep in. But I feel bad, Crystal was probably up wicked early, and then she just laid in bed scrolling. I mean, she could’ve been up and mostly dressed sitting next to me on the couch, scrolling.

Ok, I see your point.

It’s bright and sunny out, with what looks like just a slight breeze. It looks like a beautiful day out there. Perfect day for a closing shift. That’s what I’ll be doing for the next three days.

Didn’t watch regular television last night, we watched day 2 of the Democratic National Convention. There were some really good speeches, and a couple of “meh” speeches. But all in all very good. The best speeches were of course the Obamas.

I’ll miss the speeches for the next three days. Crystal will have to fill me in. I’m sure we can get the gist of it when we scroll TikTok later.

More coffee, pls
