Out in the playground in the dark side of town

Shawshank, September 8, 2025

Good morning everyone. With Podrick locked out of the bedroom, and another sleepy time experience for The Beautiful One, we were knocked out until 8:47. That’s when I rolled over and exclaimed “what year is it?” that’s when I knew it was time to get up. The slumber was long, and the limbs were heavy when I heaved myself out of the bed.

We’re up. Coffee is flowing, and the kitties have been fed. I’ve opened the window on the back door, because it’s beautiful out there right now. The kitties are ignoring the laser that just started up. pippin is getting braver and braver. She’s cucks Podrick. He’ll just sit there and watch her eat his food. It’s hilarious to see.

Work wasn’t too bad yesterday. Considering it’s an open to close shift. I managed to have the store ready to open before Bing Bing knocked on the door. We opened at the opening time, and that started our day. It’s was steady, but not overwhelming. It was actually a pretty not too bad day. I only had to practice asking Bing Bing not to whistle – I told him that I could hear his single note across the store over the AC, and behind a closed door. To his credit, he did stop.

Sanity restored.

We’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown for supplies. I just didn’t feel like doing it after work on Saturday. So we’ll go out in a little while. Once we get back, I’ll start the laundry. It’ll be a good day. Plus RAW is on tonight. So let’s get some!

It’s looking a lot like Christmas out there. It’s lightly snowing again, and is supposed to snow for the rest of the day. But it’s not Christmas time, it’s Easter. How will the Easter bunny find my place and drop off chocolate for me? Spoiler alert: he didn’t find me. No chocolate for me today.…

Yep, I slept in. Another pretty good sleep. Out like a light. I moved around a couple of times. Every time I’d stretch out on to Crystal’s side, I’d kinda wake up and reset my myself and move back to my side of the bed. Sunday, Sunday. I’m up and I can’t believe that my…

Good morning! The birds are singing, and the grass is green. Coffee is brewing and I was wide awake before the alarm went off. I got up, and dressed. I stumbled out and turned the coffee on. I think opened the blinds and turned the tv on. While I was still trying to focus, I…
