Put on your brake lights, you’re in the city of wonder

Shawshank, November 4, 2025

Morning.

It’s gray, and surprisingly not too windy out there. Nice. I slept like shit last night. It took what felt like 45 minutes to get to sleep. Then I was up early, because, Podrick.

He’s definitely a morning person. I am totally not a morning person. I don’t even know how to explain it, so I won’t. He knows how to poke me to get a response from me. For right now, he’s motionless. he has so much energy first thing in the morning, it’s insane. He gets into everything, because, while he doesn’t look like a kitten anymore, he’s still most definitely is still a kitten.

Work wasn’t too bad last night. It’s that time of the year, as soon as you get back inside, and take off your coat, you have to go back out – coat back on, gloves back on – once more into the breach. It was, I would say, steady last night. Not balls to the wall busy, but just enough people coming in that it was difficult to get our check list completed. We managed to get out pretty much on time, with prodding from me (ie: don’t you think it’s time to count the cash?). My coworker was just all over the place, he was just a little scatter-brained.

Back at it again this afternoon. But we’re doing something different this morning: breakfast for lunch. And if there’s bacon left over, we’ll have burgers for lunch tomorrow.

But before we get to tomorrow, we’ll get through today first. I think work will be pretty good. Busy again I’m sure, which will be nice. Busy always helps the day go quicker. Let’s goooo.

They cut off my legs, now I’m an amputee, God damn you

November 5, 2023

Well, we’re into the meat of the weekend. It’s been a busy one so far. So I worked yesterday 10-3. I asked BossLady on Friday evening, hey we’re working 10-3 tomorrow, right? She answered in the affirmative. So that’s what I planned for. Work til 3, and the head over to SlightlyBiggerTown for some groceries,…

Oooh, look, a post coming at you in the morning! That only means one thing- I’m working a non opening shift this fine day. I think that the wind has finally wound down again. We’ll see if the day will be nicer than the previous days. I haven’t looked at the weather app yet. At…
