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

Oh yes, I have to post today. I got home from work this afternoon, and went right to bed to nap. As a surprise, Crystal came and napped with me. It was the world’s greatest nap, because of that. I know for a fact that I didn’t move. I’m a little stiff and sore for not moving in an hour and a half.

Work wasn’t too bad. Not busy whatsoever. We did some stocking and cleaning. I let NewGuy do all the running for the outside customers. He has energy, let him burn it off.

Having the day off yesterday, has really screwed me up day- wise this week. I’ll probably be a day behind until sometime next week. it’s all good. It’ll even itself out by the end of the week, as I’m working Saturday.

Woke up drunk at 10 am, we gon’ do this shit again

Good morning. I believe it’s gonna be hard to set the alarm to 4:30am. It’s been two weeks of getting up at a normal time. We’re up, and ready to greet the day. With coffee of course.

Happy Monday everyone!

It looks like it’ll be a somewhat nice day out there. The sun is up, and there doesn’t seem to be a lot of wind out there. It rained in the night. The roads and grass are damp. It looks good for the rest of the day, according to the weather app.

It’s been a nice weekend. All the chores have been completed m, and like I said, this is a bonus day. There’s no plans on my end. Crystal says she’s going to reinstall her hair. So I’ll figure out which show we’ll watch for the day. Either a rewatch of Bridgerton, or a rewatch of Outer Tange, since both have dropped new seasons. So we’ll figure out what to binge for the day.

Wings for dinner tonight. That’s the most planning that I’ve done for the day. Wings for me, and nuggets for the great one.

Ugh, work tomorrow.

But at least we have today.!

Break me off a piece of that KitKat bar

It’s bright and sunny. The birds are singing outside, and both cats are on the little table, looking outside. Staring directly into the sunrise. They are totally happy. It’s Sunday, and there’s no wind out there, just sun.

I slept like the dead. I think if I didn’t have the alarm set, I think I’d still be sleeping right now. I had some strange dreams. Nothing too crazy( but I think all the shows that we watched yesterday totally contributed to my dreams. I don’t remember them, I just feel that they were strange.

The shows we watched yesterday included: a couple of episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, then a couple of episodes of The X-Files, and then during dinner, it was an episode of Last Week Tonight.

It was the perfect storm of strangeness.

Dinner was two giant plates of nachos. The restaurant wasn’t open, due to some scheduling problems. And the nachos were huge. We ate our fill, and were couch locked for the rest of the night.

Rewinding a little, we drove to SlightlyBiggerTown in the morning. It was a little drizzly, and windy. But we made it and grabbed the food that we need for the next couple of weeks, hit up the pharmacy, and eventually made it to the local dispensary.

Crystal’s vape battery died less than a week after we bought it. So we were going to replace it, when Crystal asked if she could get me the vape box battery mod thing that I’d been looking at for a couple of weeks for an early birthday present. So that’s what we did.

I think that it was a pretty good Saturday. We made it home around the usual time, and then we feasted on our Subway sandwiches. It was a good day. a very good day. Def in the top ten of Saturdays w/ chores that I’ve had in a while. Of course now it’s Sunday, and the real chores are waiting to happen. That’ll be in a few hours. But first coffee.

I woke up one minute before the alarm. I think Sir Chaucer was getting sick in my vicinity. Either way, the alarm went off, and I found myself alone in the bed. Crystal had a bit of a coughing fit, she told me. I didn’t hear anything.

It took a few extra minutes to fall asleep. At one point I thought, I don’t think I’ll fall asleep. I was too warm, I couldn’t breathe through my nose, and then suddenly, I was out. No fade to black, or anything like that. I think I was just out.

I got up once in the night. It was either 1am or 3am. I don’t know. I don’t think my eyes focused too fast, and my brain just filled in what I wanted to see. I got up, did my thang, and quietly climbed back into bed to snuggle the queen.

Once I got comfortable, I don’t think I moved until the untz untz wub wub was over. Now I have a Chaucer by my feet, and the tiny Pippin all stretched out on my lap.

It’s the start of a long weekend. It’s a good start if you ask me. Anytime I have Crystal next to me, and the cats close by, it’s a good day. The coffee is just an added bonus.

As usual, nothing is really on the table this morning. Later on, we’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown for groceries, and some more weed. Crystal’s vape battery shit the bed, and only works whilst plugged in, so we’ll grab another one for her. And a couple of carts. But that’s about it. I have to make a shopping list.

But first coffee. Happy Saturday motherbitches. I hope y’all have a good long weekend. If you don’t have a long weekend this week, I’m sorry son, maybe next time.
