Late breaking story on the CBC

Shawshank, April 22, 2025

As Crystal put it in a text message to her mother: IT WAS ALL MELTED. SPRING WAS HERE.

Ahh yes, but welcome to second winter. Although if you were counting, this is technically, like fourth winter. But yep, it’s snowing. And should pretty much be snowing for the foreseeable future, and into the evening as well.

Yesterday was a mix of laziness, and cleaning. Li did the chores, and in late morning, I cooked brunch. Other than that, I played Balatro for pretty much the whole afternoon, frustrating myself in the process. But I actually managed to beat another deck. It kind of snuck up on me, and then BOOM! I get the you won message.

Yeah, I was surprised. I showed the screen to Crystal, and said oh shit, I won! After the win, I had a couple of hours of pure shit being dealt to me. It was wicked frustrating, but I powered through it, and played more. I didn’t win on another deck, but I did manage to get my first ever Royal Flush!

That surprised me!

Back to work this afternoon. And, I think probably by the end of the week, this white shit will be gone again soon.

Merry Christmas!

I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. I slept mostly through the night. Only sat up twice to clear nasal passages, and to cool off a little bit. The alarm played for a while before I even heard it. Usually, I’ll hear it right at the beginning….

When I wake up in my makeup, it’s too early for that dress

October 20, 2020

Hap hap happy Tuesday. I barely heard my alarm this morning. It had been going off for a minute when I thought I heard something, and rolled over. It’s gray out there, and like I said the snow is starting to stick. At least on the trucks in the driveway….
