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

Don’t be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, woo, huh (woo)

The alarm went off at 4:30. I got up, and went to the bathroom. As I sat, I realized that I didn’t have my pile of clothes ready to get dressed. Then I remembered that it’s now Saturday, and I didn’t have to be up at 4:30, so I went back to sleep. Thankfully, Crystal didn’t hear the alarm go off. At one point before it was actually time to get up, I went to find Crystal so I could snuggle her.

I’m pretty sure that I was pretty much on the edge of the bed. So it felt like she was miles away from me. I made the trek across the bed to snuggle a little bit. The journey was difficult. But after days of travel, I finally made it to her side. I believe that she was cold, and it’s my mission to keep her as warm as possible. So that’s what I did, until I woke up.

Pippin started to cry right away for the table. So she got the table at the back door, where the sun is coming up. She’ll be there for about an hour or so. Maybe more. Chaucer is happy about that, because he’s very snuggled on my lap.

Nothing much planned for today. It’s Saturday, so we’ll be heading out to SlightlyBiggerTown for groceries, and probably some weed. I did grab some of the staples last night. I also got gas. So the staples purchase was a little more expensive. I had to get some gas, as we had about 20 miles to empty. And the fuel was going up. It went from $1.489 to $1.529. So it was a purchase. Lol

So that’s the day. But before all of that, it’s coffee time. Poor Chaucer will have to get up in a second.

Happy Saturday!

TGI motherfucking F.

Finally, Friyay has graced us with her presence. And finally work is over for the week. It’s been a long week today. But we made it through the whole week. For me, there was only one schedule change.

The alarm scared the shit out of me this morning. 4:30 came wicked early. But I got out of bed, and started the day. It’s nice to look out the kitchen window, and to see the sun slowly starting to rise.

As I left, I remembered that I forgot about getting his dog buns, but that wasn’t really my fault, as the bread delivery hadn’t arrived. So I stopped at the small grocery store. From there I hit up the post office, and then delivered mail to Shady Acres, as my dad had a parcel.

Home now. I unloaded what groceries I could buy at work, I can get a few items on discount at work – the majority of the groceries will be purchased tomorrow when we go to SlightlyBiggerTown.

I’m gonna play a video game for a little while. I may or may not need a nap. I’m sleepy AF. Deadass. No Cap.

Awake. The bed did not want to release its hold on me this morning. It was a chore to roll out of bed. But I made it. Here I am.

Coffee is being consumed. And the cats are either stalking around, or looking out the window. Chaucer is waiting to get into my lap. So I have to keep typing! He’s getting snuggled in.

I slept like the dead again last night while it’s great that I’m doing that, I wake up really groggy. Soon, after posting this, I’ll go and get dressed and start the morning stuff.

So I’m going to post this, and drink some more coffee. I hope y’all have a good Thursday, the week is just about at an end. That’s a good thing, it’s been a long week!

Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah

Ahh who doesn’t like Gregorian Throat singing? Right?

Hello party people, it is I, the Shank of Shaw. I’m home from another glorious day of work. And it was a slow one today. But we got what was needed done, plus defrosted two freezers.

So the store changed its hours and is now closed on Sundays. Wow, I never thought that people would be pissed off at this. But Yeppers, according to the towns bulletin board on Facebook, there’s two or three people really upset about this.

Oh well. It is what it is. We just don’t have the people to keep the shift.
