May your days be merry and bright

The day started with a bang.

Literally.

I’m warm, comfy, and snuggled up to The Beautiful One, when it happened. Mind you, I don’t know what time it is because, Podrick was in the bedroom earlier, and flipped my clock over. So I’m clueless on what time it is (as opposed to just being clueless).

I took my time getting dressed. I got up and padded into the kitchen, turning on the coffee pot. I opened the curtains, and turned on the TV. Then I turned my attention to getting dressed. As Crystal cleaned up what Podrick got into.

I have to remember to get zip ties tonight.

We’re all up now, and ready to greet the day. the coffee has been brewed, and the news is on. It’s freakin cold out there today. And it doesn’t look like it’s gonna warm up too much. Podrick, since all his humans are awake, is lounging on the shelf, just looking around.

I have to work this afternoon, but that’s what’s not important. When I get home, I’ll watch SmackDown. John Cena’s last match is tomorrow. I never watched him wrestle in his prime, but strangely enough, the WWE is very good at pulling at your heart strings. I’m excited, but know I’m an emotional bitch. I’ll probably tear up tomorrow night.

More coffee, please.

Yay, Friyay!

I just want you for my own more than you could ever know

Jetpack has updated, and doesn’t crash when I select a featured image. Woohoo! The tags though, are in alphabetical order. Boo! For the second time in over 1900 days, I haven’t used all the tags I usually do, because, I can’t remember my most used tags. Oh well. I’ll manage.

I’m up early this morning. Not because, Podrick is being Podrick. No. I was warm this morning. I couldn’t breathe through my nose. And, I had an upset tummy. I spent like 5 or 10 minutes in the bathroom, and didn’t want to climb back into bed, because of Podrick.

So, we’re up. Well, Crystal has been up for probably a few hours at this point. Add to the fact that I was mostly awake from the tummy pain. So here we are. Coffee has been brewed, and the curtains are open. I don’t want to greet the new day. I wish I was still sleeping. But, here we are.

So let’s get up, and greet the day. Hoist that coffee cup into a salute, and let’s get this day started! Let’s get the day started, in 5 minutes. I’m not ready to actually greet the day. Happy Thursday y’all.

Decorate the house with lights at night snow’s on the ground, snow white so bright

After the last update of Jetpack, things are a little wonky. My tags aren’t in the right order, so I’ve either missed some, or I don’t know. I don’t have a featured image, because every time I tried to put one up, it would crash the app. Come on Jetpack, be better.

Oh well.

Close enough.

I crashed hard last night. I know I was listening to a new video last night. He said where we were going but I can’t remember. All I remember is thinking to myself, “wow it’s taking a while to fall asleep ….”

And I was out.

It felt like it was taking forever.

We didn’t do a whole lot of anything yesterday. We did make it to the second hand store. I bought Crystal a set of blue Christmas lights. I’m sure she’ll use them when she goes to work this afternoon. Oh, I found a new whisk to replace the one I broke, when I was baking Monday.

Dinner was a journey. The first jar of spaghetti sauce just was not good. So out I went into the winter wonderland. I grabbed another jar of sauce, or if you’re from the east coast, and Italian, a jar of gravy, and some stinky cheese. How come stinky cheese is so freakin’ expensive?

After that, dinner was amazing.

The rest of the night was nice and relaxing. I watched NXT, while Crystal played Factorio. I really enjoyed the last two days off.

Back to work this afternoon! Let’s gooo!

Baby, it’s bad out there say, what’s in this drink?

I slowly, woke up. I heard a bit of a noise, and internally panicked. I didn’t recognize the sound, so my mind went into slight freak out mode. I breathed my way through it for about 1 or 2 minutes. I slowly took off the mask, cracked open my eye. Just one, you don’t want to waste all the sleep magic, and peeped the clock.

I slowly sat up, and swung my legs off the bed. I found my clothes and stepped into the pants. Once dressed, I padded out and turned the coffee in, and did the bathroom stuff. So now we’re up, and mostly mobile.

The weather app says freezing rain right now, turning to snow for the rest of the day. Fuck the snow! We’re gonna go to the thrift store today. It’s been way too long. Even though it’s the same stuff as the last time, it gets us out of the house for a little while.

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels

I slept twice last night. We get into bed, and do our bed things. I give The Beautiful One kisses, and we slowly start getting ready to go to sleep.

I’m out.

About a half hour later, Podrick did something, and woke me up. I repositioned, and pulled my mask down. I didn’t even have the mask or the YouTube going. So I got that going, and got the volume set correctly. I don’t remember putting the phone in my dresser drawer, and I was out again.

I remember the guy saying to concentrate on the dome of my head, and how there’s a light warming it. That’s all I remember before falling asleep.

Work wasn’t too bad yesterday. At one point I come back in from outside and said, “co-worker, it’s snowing outside, and it’s 1:30. Do you know what that means?”

Blank look in my direction.

“That means for the next five and a half hours, we listen to” … (pause for dramatic effect) …

“Christmas music!”

I’m pretty sure he humoured me.
