I’ve been thinking about setting my house on fire

Shawshank, June 10, 2026

Yesterday afternoon we did day three of tornado watch. Last night we were only under an orange warning. It got a little windy, then no wind at all. Then it got dark. DARK. Then the wind started up again.

Then, really, nothing. We got some big fat drizzle for like 45 seconds. I didn’t even mind being out there, while it drizzled. It was somewhat slow last night. The grad class was doing their annual scavenger hunt. The gas station is a popular place for shenanigans. I watched the future of this country cheat at eating an onion. And a possible future Prime minister allowing my co-worker to sign his ass.

Finally it was time to leave.

To quote my co-worker; “let’s get the fuck out of here.”

Back to it again this afternoon.

But, coffee first.

I got to sleep in a little bit today! I got up sometime in the night, because my mask was missing. I quietly checked the floor, around the pillow and into the bed. I didn’t want to disturb Crystal, so I moved slowly, quietly, gently. But I couldn’t find the…
