On a train back to Boston and we’re jumping the gun

Shawshank, September 5, 2026

It’s bright, hot, sunny, and Gord is mowing the lawn. I’ve been up since around 4:30, with the alarm set for 5. I woke up and yelled at Podrick for doing Podrick things. After that, I dozed.

I got up when the alarm went off, and got the coffee going. Then, I locked both cats out of the bedroom to let Crystal sleep a little bit longer. I don’t know if it worked, but from what she told me, he didn’t make too much noise after I left.

Work was wicked slow.

Tomorrow before we make dinner, my mom is coming over – we’re trying to get her out of the house more, we’ll be making some bread in the Dutch oven. It’s been a long time since we baked bread. Really she leaves the house to go grocery shopping, and to visit my dad in the hospital.

I forgot to go yesterday. By the time I remembered, we already had our groceries, and the frozen food was starting to thaw. I feel terrible about it.

But for the rest of the day I’m not doing anything until I cook burgers for dinner. Off tomorrow, working Labour Day <- that’s a little ironic, don’t you think?

Good morning! It’s Friday! You made it! Of course, I totes knew you’d make it. You’re very skillful at making it through the week. Why is it always the last 20 minutes before the alarm goes off, that the bed is the most comfortable and the your sleep is the…
