The water’s getting warm so you might as well swim

Posted on by Shawshank

Good Friyay morning my friends. It’s almost the weekend. And honestly, I can’t wait. I just have today, and the short shift tomorrow, then it’s the weekend.

Which is good because I was up early with another coughing fit for a few minutes. I tried to stay in bed for as long as possible. But I had to get up and blow my nose, and to get something to drink. I fell back into bed, and eventually fell asleep.

And now here we are. It’s a gray morning, and I have both cats trying to fit on my legs. It’s about that time of the year. It’s chilly so they’re just trying to stay warm. Silly kittens.

I don’t have too much to talk about. So I’m going to leave it like this. So have a cup of coffee and snuggle your pets. It’s Friyay! So let’s party!

You could’ve been gettin’ down to this sick beat

I was up slightly before the alarm went off. Just slightly though. I think I tried to focus my eyes, and the clock said 6:37. I went back to sleep after that. It was a light sleep though. I was having a dream that Crystal and I were looking for a small pull behind camper. My mom had said since we were looking for one, they’d sell the big trailer to use for an excellent price. But I stopped her. I told her that The Hot Mess Express couldn’t pull it. She started to say that we could use her truck when lever we wanted, but again I stopped her – I used all the logic I could, including telling her that I can’t back up with a big trailer. That’s when the alarm went off.

Yesterday at work was pretty slow. I did talk to BossLady in the morning. She gave me a couple of things to do. I got them all sorted about 20-30 minutes later. I wrote up some invoices, and sent them to her to take a look. Today, I have to make a very large deposit on a clients appliances. I just have to double check and triple check before possibly charging over $10k to the company credit card.

After work, I trotted home. Crystal was already in the middle of preparing dinner. So I fed the kittens, and the kittens were then very happy. I did my thing with the pork chops, and put them and the Brussels sprouts in the oven. The chops were a little thicker than were used to, so I had to put them back in the oven for a few more minutes. After that, the food was plated, and consumed. I had the third chop as well, because I’m a fat ass. The dinner was excellent.

After dinner, and the dishes. It was a slothy evening. I fired up TotK. Like Crystal, I’m totally avoiding the main story line, by doing other things. I mostly have the Depths mapped out. And I’m just exploring. I’m not bored, but I have no interest in beating this game. I’ll give you two words to explain why: GLOOM HANDS. That’s right. As soon as I hear that wicked music, I bolt. Yep that’s right. The savior of Hyrule bolting and running as fast as he can to get away from them. I choose what I fight. I need to have the upper hand right from the beginning! Lol

And then I saw her face, now I’m a believer and not a trace, of doubt in my mind

Good morning my friends. The sun is bright, and the breeze is cold. We’re looking of a high of just over 70° this fine day. I awoke having strange dreams. We were looking for something, and like in the movies we had to form a super group. That’s all I can remember. It wasn’t a sad or depressing dream, it felt funny, and light. Strange!

Well we’re up and the coffee has been brewed, and Chaucer has thrown up. So it’s a pretty normal day here so far. I think that Pippin is on the table at the back door. She likes to get her morning sun.

Yesterday at work was kinda crazy. I told Crystal it felt like an 8 hour day was squished into a 3 hour morning. BossLady was feeling very stressed, and I tried to help as much as possible. I was happy when her consult came in. I could breathe a sigh of relief.

She had a mountain of papers on her desk. And had just today to clear them as much as she could. She’s off to Montreal this morning for a couple of days. So yeah she was a little crazy, but that’s to be expected.

I took off at lunch, and came home. We made liverwurst sandwiches. I remembered to grab a bag of chips to supplement the sandwiches. Lunch was wicked good. We packed up what Crystal sold, and dropped it off at the post office, and then popped over to the second hand store. Crystal found some fleece and very quickly put together a pair of pants. She says they’re very warm, and they look very snuggly.

I slept pretty good last night. Crystal on the other hand, didn’t really sleep that great. I think at the kittens were on the bed this morning. I have to remember to fix my alarm clock today. For some reason, it’s like 20 minutes slow. I don’t know why I set it like that, way back when. Now, it’s just annoying.

With this very unpleasin’, sneezin’ and wheezin’

Good sunny morning people. I slept pretty ok. It was just a rocky start. About 12ish, I woke up coughing. I tried rolling over, and that didn’t work. I was so afraid of waking up Crystal, I quietly slid out of bed, went to the bathroom, blew my nose, and got something to drink. Just before I climbed back into bed, I grabbed a cough drop. Got back into bed, and tried to get as close as possible to Crystal, and went back to sleep.

Then the alarm went off.

And here we are. Bright and early Tuesday morning. I woke up when the alarm went off, and I really hoped it was Monday morning. I can see by the gif that Crystal is posting, she didn’t sleep well at all. That’s my fault. No matter what she says, I’m pretty sure I kept her up.

Yesterday was pretty good. I was a little down because of the weather. But we had a kick ass brunch, and Crystal spent a good half hour to 45 minutes making an absolute pile of waffles. Normal sized ones. When I made them before yesterday, I only made the standard “order”. Yesterday I mixed up a double batch so Crystal can have normal sized waffles.

But yeah, we didn’t do too much yesterday at all. We took turns playing the Switch. That’s literally it. It was in my mind a great sloth day. I don’t know if I’ll be working the whole day or if I’m a half day jay. I’m sure we’ll figure that out pretty quick.

Moar coffee pls.

Hit me with the horns Tony

It’s like god, and the baby jeebus forgot to turn on the lights this morning. It’s a dim, cool, and wet morning here in TinyTown. It’s definitely sweater weather today.

Once again, the weekend flew by, and we’re on the last the day of the weekend. The weekend always goes a lot faster than the week days. So today is a sloth day with one exception – I have to run to the grocery store, because when we went shopping on Saturday, I mentioned that we can have burgers Monday evening, and then we completely forgot to get hamburger buns.

Since it’s so cool, Chaucer is already between us trying to stay warm. I try and tell him that you’re covered in fur, you should be somewhat warm. But he’s not. He has to get in between us to stay warm. On the other hand, Pippin is sitting I front of the open back door, just soaking up the cool morning air.

Other than the grocery run sometime today, there’s nothing really planned. Well that’s a lie, we quickly talked about me playing TotK, and having Crystal nap on the couch. After brunch, of course.

So yeah, it’s a vey crisp, cool day here so far. It’s not supposed to climb too far out of the 60s today. Brr!
