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

Good morning to all my adoring fans out there. I hope you can see me waving through the snow that’s falling. Yep. Snow. Falling.

But Shawshank, it’s just about April. Yes, yes it is.

You were saying that the snow was just about gone?! Yep. But on a good note, it’s supposed to be above freezing for the next weekish, so the snow that’s falling right now, will hopefully be gone either when we wake up tomorrow or gone by the end of the weekend.

Hopefully.

Yesterday wasn’t too bad at work. It was busier than the day before. Maybe because of the snow coming, but I didn’t hear too many people talking about it. I’m sure they’ll be talking about it today.

And we have absolutely nothing to do this weekend. It’s nice to not have anything planned. Of course, there’s chores, and dinner at Shady Acres. But that’s completely it.

On a scale of chairman mao to hacksaw Jim Duggan, how free are you this weekend? Well, my friends, I’m pretty much Bobcat Goldthwait this weekend.

It’s my Friyay today, and it’s a good Friyay! I’m home from work, and I’m (right now) not sleepy. It was a pretty good day. A lot busier than yesterday that’s for sure.

And, it’s mothafuckin date night!

With date night, comes bathtub night for Crystal. I’m sure she’s excited about that.

Our usual restaurant is closed, so we’ll be heading over to the other restaurant a block over. I don’t know what I’ll have tonight, but I’m sure it will be good with a side of salad bar, so I have that going for me.

Other than that, there’s not a lot to update y’all on. Since I have a long weekend, there’s a helluva good chance that I’ll probably do my chores tomorrow, then I can relax for the next couple of days.

Hey hey. This will probably short and sweet as I’m freakin tired. I was up about 15 minutes before my alarm, and I couldn’t get back to sleep. As a result, I’ve been dragging ass all day.

But I checked off the grocery order all by myself today. I’m a real boy! It was a slightly larger order, because head office is closed on good Friyay. So we had to make sure that we had enough for the people to last us until next Wednesday.

Tomorrow will be the same, but without the grocery order. Then I actually have Friyay off. Yay! I can sleep in!

Like I said, short and sweet. Happy Wednesday y’all!

But everything looks better when the sun goes down

Another day, another dollar. Before taxes. I’m tired. How hard would it be to just have one restful night a week? A month? I’m not greedy. I slept well I guess last night. The alarm didn’t scare me. But I just don’t feel rested, or myself.

I’ll live.

Work wasn’t too bad today. It was busier than Monday. Which is freakin great. It made the time go by quicker than normal. I’m just happy I was able to leave.

We have some turkeys at work, so I bought the cheaper, unstuffed one and snuck it into my parents freezer. It’ll be a surprise for mom.

I fell asleep on the couch yesterday afternoon. I’m going to try and not fall asleep today. But no promises.
