And she said, “mom, I got a note here from the Harper Valley PTA”

We were woken up to the dulcet sounds of a kitty rave. Yep, Chaucer got sick this morning on the floor on Crystal’s side. So yeah, good morning everyone.

Well, it’s Thursday I believe. It’s gray and cool outside. The coffee has been brewed, and I have Chaucer curled up on my lap. I think he’s trying to apologize for what he did this morning.

Work has been busy. We’re gearing up for a giant sale. The giant sale that we had going on is over, and all the prices are being reset and a new pricing subsystem is in place. We’re moving a whole bunch of stuff all over the place. More of the same today.

I got home last night and some amazing fajitas were almost ready to eat. They were really good, I had a second helping. I did manage not to be a fat ass and saved some for lunch today. And maybe tomorrow if I’m lucky.

So I think it’s going to be more of the same m, so hopefully the day will go quickly again. I’m excited for the long weekend. I had asked Crystal if she wanted her corn bread stuffing, and she said yes. We’ll be making some Saturday evening. And we’ll bring some over for Thanksgiving.

I need more coffee, so I’ll be signing off now. The weekend is getting so close I can taste it.

Here I am, awake. It’s Wednesday morning and contrary to what the weather app said yesterday, it’s actually sunny out there, until about 9, then it’ll cloud over and then later on in the day, it’s supposed to rain. Yay.

Yesterday wasn’t too great of a day. And that’s pretty much all I’m going to say about it. The day for the most part went pretty quickly, but it wasn’t too great of a day.

But today is a new day, and I’ll make the best of it today. It’s hump day, so we’re almost to the weekend. A long weekend. That’s right, Monday is Thanksgiving day. So we have that going for us.

Other than that, it’s just another day here. This weekend, we’ll be popping over to SlightlyBiggerTown for some groceries. But other than that, we don’t have anything really on the books.

The only plan: more coffee. Come on weekend, get your ass over here!

And what better way to say “I love you.” than with the gift of a spatula?

Good morning my friends. It’s gonna be a long week, weather-wise. It’s supposed to rain all day. Ugh. And it supposed to be gray and overcast for the rest of the week. Good times.

I slept like the dead last night. I don’t think I moved, or got up to go to the bathroom at all in the night. It was a pretty good sleep. I believe I spider-monkied on Crystal for most of the night.

Yesterday was a good do nothing day. I cooked up some pretty good brunch, and then after the dishes were done, I grabbed the Hot Mess and drove up to the little grocery store. I picked up some grapes, cereal, and milk. That pretty much was the only time I left the property for the rest of the day.

For the rest of the day, I moderated the chat room in Crystal’s TikTok live. That was fun. At one point we had 100 people watch her play Skyrim. As she was doing that, I was reading interesting articles on Reddit.

That’s about it. It’s Tuesday. I need more coffee. Happy Tuesday y’all. We’re getting closer to the weekend everyone. Only a couple more days to go!

I’m awake, and I’m not liking it. I passed out last night. The bed was the perfect temperature. I think I might have gotten up in the middle of the night, but I’m not too sure. Chaucer is on top of me right now.

It’s gray and rainy out there. It’s supposed to be like this all week. Great. Depressing weather all week til about Friday. It’s all good. Of course, it is what it is. We’re pretty sure that Chaucer was snuggled up to Pippin on her bed, at my feet this morning.

Yesterday was a nice day. We did a whole lot of really, nothing. Crystal played some Skyrim on stream. I was running the stream as she played. There was a lot of people in there. I think we did pretty well. Matter that, we popped over to my parents for dinner. We were put to work peeling apples and getting them in the slow cooker for apple butter.

After dinner, we came home and Crystal bleached her roots while I played TotK. I got another shrine, and pretty much just wondered around. I’m trying to clear up some older quests and such. I didn’t get too far in the older quests. I really need to get the last sage.

But today is brunch day. That’ll get started in a couple of hours. But for now, we’ll watch the breaking news of Trump heading into court in New York. Maybe it’ll all be televised. If it is, I’m sure that’s what we’ll watch today.

Good froggy morning. Yep, again it’s a little froggy out there. And it feels unusually warm out there for how it looks. It’s another Sunday here in TinyTown. The quick short shift passed by as quickly as it could’ve. I did some cleaning, and a little organizing. I passed on what I did to BossLady, and started my weekend.

When I got home, Crystal was playing Hades. I had some grapes for lunch, and I watched her play as I scrolled through YouTube shorts. It was a really nice afternoon. Eventually, I was passed the controller, and I could wander around Hyrule for a couple of hours. It was really nice.

Crystal made an awesome dinner of rice and chicken fajitas. Oh it was very good. I really enjoyed it very much. I think this was the first time at least in the house, put rice in my fajitas. So freakin good!!

I went full on nerd for an hour and a half after dinner. I went and put on Star Trek: First Contact. I did notice that everyone looked a little young. I thought the movie was released in the early 2000s. But no, it was released in the late 1900s. Wow, do I feel old.

Chore day today. But I need more coffee before that happens. Let’s get caffeinated!
