I’ve been thinking about setting my house on fire

Shawshank, August 8, 2026

The alarm went off so very early this morning.

The sun hadn’t even risen yet. It was still in the process. And it was a red sun this morning. But, I got up, and turned on the coffee pot. Half way through my first cup, I realized that I could’ve slept in just a little more.

Well, shit.

But eventually I made it to work, and one of the kids did all the opening paperwork. We’re severely understaffed, so BossLady is teaching the kids to open and close, which is great, until they go back to school, and can only work 15hours a week.

We’ll see what’s going to happen. They go back to school on like the 2nd. But for now, it’s mostly working.

We just got back from SlightlyBiggerTown, for some supplies. And now I have the balance of the days and tomorrow to try and get some energy back. Tomorrow, we’ll head to Shady Acres, so I can build a bed for my mom, and she’ll cook dinner for us.

But right now, I’m going to do my best not to fall asleep. Happy whatever day it is. Does it really matter what day it is?

I woke up slightly cold, having a hard time breathing, but Pippin was snuggled in the bed with us. Podrick, locked out of the bedroom, because, like his beautiful mother, is a chaos gremlin. He is chaos personified. And he’s rotund. But he’s cute, so we’ll keep him. I have…

Well, here we are again. This will be the harder of all the shifts. I work until close tonight, and then I don’t get to sleep in tomorrow, I’ll be up at 4:30 for first shift on Friyay. In fact, I have to go and change my alarm clock right…
