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! Life almost springblogbloggercoffeejournalmorningssecond wintersnowTinyTown

Just a trick of the eyes, I think…. Read More

Finally I put him out of the bedroom, and listened to him throwing his shoulder against the door like a Terminator, and I was John Conner. Eventually, he… Read More
Life Har har July 7, 2020July 11, 2020 My wife asked me to stop singing “Wonderwall” to her. I said maybe – So I managed to drag myself out of bed this morning. I'll say that it was warm. I started to sweat as I was getting my running gear on. I was swearing to myself that I… Read More
