Life Don’t let ’em pick guitars or drive them old trucks let ’em be doctors and lawyers and such Shawshank, May 18, 2024 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… Continue Reading
Life You are my fire the one desire Shawshank, May 17, 2024 Awake. Finally I wake up, and it’s Friyay! It’s bright and sunny currently, but Crystal said “considerable clouds” for the afternoon.

Life This is my bohème, so drink it up, my friend Shawshank, May 16, 2024 I’m awake, but I’m not liking it. I didn’t sleep great. My shoulder was bothering me. But I couldn’t breathe on one side.

It was a little chilly this morning, and I am guilty of stealing probably most of the blankets this morning. I guess I was wicked cold. I already have a kitten on me. Pippin really wanted up. Chaucer just jumped up… Continue Reading
Life Well I called my congressman and he said quote “I’d like to help you son, but you’re too young to vote” Shawshank, May 13, 2024 I’m tired, man. I was up every couple of hours, after about 2am. My mind was thinking that I didn’t set the alarm. Spoiler alert: I did. But I couldn’t get a restful sleep at all. I woke up cranky, and tired. I made it through 8 hours of work,… Continue Reading
