So you think my singing’s out of time? It makes me money

Posted on by Shawshank

It’s nice and sunny outside, but the wind is making it feel a lot colder. I actually had to wear my jacket every time I had to go outside. And the lined gloves as well.

If I’m typing this, and you’re reading this, that means that I’m home from work. Yep the donuts have been made for the day, so to speak. It felt a lot longer than it actually was today.

Very slow.

I slept ok last night, but with the day being as slow as it was, I’m even more tired because of that. I was also up about a half hour before the alarm, but went back to sleep. It’s rough when that happens. But it’s still not stopping me from planning a movie marathon for the weekend.

I had to look and make sure that the movies are on Netflix, which they are! Crystal doesn’t know it yet but I’m gonna look in my Twilight cook book, and I’m gonna see if I can make a dish out of the book for the weekend.

Other than that, nothing else has really been going on. I did place an order on Temu, and it’s shipped, I’m just waiting for the next update to see when it’s actually going to arrive. There’s t-shirts in it for me for work. They’re funny ones. I’m gonna be that guy – the funny shirt guy I guess. I’m ok with that.

And it’s Taco-Thursday!

Also, I want to wish my Chaucer boy a happy 18th birthday. He’s a good boy for sure, and probably get a piece of taco meat, some cheese, and maybe even some sour cream as a birthday snack when we eat.

You see that? Motherfucking iconic.

Iconic.

Give ’em a show that’s so splendiferous

Jesus Christ, the alarm goes off earlier and earlier, I think. 4:30 smacked me in the face today. I rolled/fell out of bed, and started the day. I was all out of my routine. I was mostly dressed before I put on the coffee pot.

It was all because of Chaucer this morning. The boy has a fetish for licking plastic, and the elastic that Crystal bough,,t, and her dreads are in plastic, and he was rubbing on them like it was last call at a dive bar. I tried quietly to shoo him away, and the little bastard (but but, he’s cute), swung at me.

He’s my best friend now though, because I have a lap, and for the moment, I’m not moving. So he’s my snuggle monster right now. He’s a good boy, except when it comes to plastic. But that’s ok.

He got back at me, by throwing up somewhere under the bed. Little bastard.

Work was too bad. A coworkers parent came in and basically said under no uncertain terms, that if the coworker had to pay the fine that he got, we’d also be closed on Saturdays, because the parent would make the coworker quit. So that coworker, when I left, was talking to the district manager and BossLady.

Good times.

I’m home now, and I think we might be having grilled cheese sandwiches, and tomato soup. It’s the perfect weather for it. It’s drizzling, and wicked gray outside. I might even nap whilst Crystal plays a video game.

We headin’ to the dive bar we always thought was nice

Everyone that lives in this house is still here, we haven’t been raptured. So that’s a good thing. I watched the solar eclipse at work yesterday. It was pretty neat, if you ask me. And it killed a couple of minutes during a dead time. I took a few pictures of it. But like concert videos, I’ll probably never look at them again.

Up again at 4:30. It was a little easier today, but still a chore to roll out of bed and start the day. Chaucer got up with me. Pippin was asleep on the couch, but got up shortly after I started to turn the lights on.

It’s starting to get warmer outside. While the sun was out it was great. I didn’t have to wear a jacket or toque to go outside, but as the morning turned to afternoon, the clouds crept in. Thus, it started to cool off again. That’s one of the reasons that spring isn’t my favorite season; you never know how to dress.

And just think, I get to do it all over again tomorrow.

And, I can’t even nap. My mom is supposed to be around sometime this afternoon to pick up some mail, that I offered to walk up to her. Other than that, I think we’re pretty much all caught up.

You say you need a little of my ooh-la-la

Oh Rexy, you’re so sexy!

Welcome to Rex Manning Day 2024!

4:30 am sure came early this morning, but I got up and started the day. With the day started, and coffee consumed, I went off to work.

Work was a little busier than normal. Probably because we were closed yesterday. But we managed to get a lot done, cleaning wise.

Course I’m tired from the weekend, so I don’t have a lot to report on today. So I’ll just leave it at this.

Happy Rex Manning Day!

Oh yeah, also there was an eclipse today. Pictures tomorrow.

(Always leave em wanting more!)

Knocking me out with those American thighs

Good Sunday morning, my friends. It’s a bright, warmish day out in the real world. The coffee has been brewed, and is being consumed as I type this. So far, no cats are around us, but I’m sure that will change in a few moments.

Again, I slept like the dead. I slept on my left side most of the night, so my shoulder is hurting this morning. That’s ok, it’ll start to feel better as I prep for laundry day in a little while.

It’s that point in the spring time weather, that it’s slightly chilly at night, but warm in the morning. I may have to take a blanket off the bed, but I’ll talk to the executive, and see what we can do.

Chaucer just jumped up on the pirate chest. He’s looking for a lap to relax on. Mine. But I just want to get this post out, and go to the bathroom. At least, I want to finish a sentence before going.

Nothing much planned for today. Just the usual; chores, brunch, and Shady Acres for dinner. Nothing major, as the work week is just about to start. Happy Sunday y’all!
