The meat carved was drawn from succulent juices

Shawshank, May 17, 2025

Good afternoon! I’ve been up since 5 this morning, when my alarm scared the shit out of me. I managed to shut it off, but accidentally turned on the second alarm, which went off around 6. At that point, Podrick had already been in the bedroom terrorizing Crystal while she tried to sleep. So she…

Birds and snakes, and aeroplanes and Lenny Bruce is not afraid

Shawshank, May 16, 2025

The baby let us sleep. Well, let me sleep. He sucked on crystals fingers for probably a few hours, while I slept blissfully unaware. Currently, Pippin is on the second highest shelf in the front window, and Podrick is on the shelf below, playing with a ribbon on a stick. Pippin has turned around to…

I had to put her six feet under and I can still hear her complain

There’s a party downtown near 5th Street

Shawshank, May 13, 2025

The Orange Baby strikes again. He was fully active around 4 this morning. For a brief second, he snuggled with me and sucked on my finger. Then he realized that I wasn’t Crystal, and left. He was a wild boy this morning. So much so, Crystal got out of bed around 6:30, so that I…

The amount of pills I’m taking counteracts the booze I’m drinking

Shawshank, May 12, 2025

Finally I get Jetpack to actually upload an image without throwing error messages at me. Jetpack is nice, until it stops working, and then it’s a little bitch. I remember a time before Jetpack, when Wordpress was actually good. Bastards. Once again the weekend is over. We went over to Shady Acres for dinner, and…
