Shawshank, March 2, 2025

I’m awake. I think I had a good sleep, but I’m not sure. I really think I did. But my grogginess suggests otherwise. But here I am! Yesterday at work wasn’t too bad. I got there and opened as per normal for a Saturday. I did the measuring that we do every Saturday. It wasn’t…

Getting lonely as the days get dark if you’re bored and your mind starts changing

Shawshank, March 1, 2025

Good afternoon my friends. It’s me. I’ve been up on and off since about 4 this morning. I ended up at around 4:11am, pleading with my mind that my alarm would go off and looked at the clock to prove to myself that the alarm was actually on. I fell back asleep, and the alarm…

What “friends” alum starred in films with Bruce Willis?*

Shawshank, February 25, 2025

Hey y’all. Good morning. I was up a little early, and dozed for about an hour and a half. I think the bed was a little too warm, but I found a pocket of comfort, and slept while Chaucer wandered around and screamed. I was a little tossy turny, probably in the night, which caused…
