It’s Christmas time in Hollis, Queens Mom’s cookin’ chicken and collard greens

Shawshank, December 19, 2025

Good Friyay morning my friends. It’s the end of the week. All that separates me and the weekend, is a simple 8 hour shift. It’s cold and blowing outside, and we’re seeing snow fall. However with a twist. The wind is blowing so hard, the snow is falling sideways.

Good times.

It’s forecasted to be windy all day.

Work wasn’t bad yesterday. It was slow at the beginning, but we managed to get through just over 100 customers. We’d have a couple, then nothing. Then a burst of 3 or 4. Then quiet again. It was a nice day. My co-worker said what we were thinking: it gets quiet, and we wish for customers, then they’d come, and we’d be like””OMG, why do they have to come?!”

Tomorrow, we don’t plan on leaving the house. For me, I don’t plan on leaving the property. Since it snowed yesterday, and today. I’ll have to deal with the snow drifts, and shovel out to the road. I don’t mind shovelling, but it’s not my favourite thing to do.

Least I get paid to do it at work. At The Flat, I just do what I’m contractually obligated to do. But that’s a problem for future Shawshank. Future me, most of the time hates past me.

Ich hätte gern noch etwas Kaffee.

You know I’m in love with an uptown girl, my uptown girl

July 27, 2025

Before I even knew what I was doing, I kicked Podrick out of the bedroom this morning. He was chasing his tail in between us on the before probably around 4:30-5am. So out her went, and I was back asleep pretty quickly. The rest of the Flat didn’t look too bad this morning. I guess…

Time on my hands could be time spent with you

February 22, 2023

Good cold morning! With the wind, right now it’s -38. We’re under a extreme cold warning until just after 8 tonight. Yep, we’re still in the middle of winter. I can’t speak for Crystal, but I slept like the dead. Neither of us heard Pippin climbing into the book case. When we got up there…
