So, work till it kills you, but don’t actually die – liars, and tigers, and bears, oh my

Shawshank, March 18, 2026

We’re all awake in The Flat this morning. Podrick is in the window, watching a chickadee. For the last couple of days, it’s been pretty warm outside. People don’t seem to remember that there’s a good chance, a very good chance that there is an assload of snow on its way. I hope that I’m wrong, but just about every year, I get excited for the nicer weather.

Tomorrow is supposed to be a lot nicer. Like 56° nicer. The parking lot at work, is just a mud pit. Hopefully by today, or tomorrow it’ll be a lot dryer out there. I didn’t even wear a jacket most of the evening last night. It was so nice. Just a little too windy out.

I was out pretty quickly last night. Sometime in the night, I got up to use the bathroom. Podrick didn’t wander in, so I think that he was actually asleep somewhere. I’m happy that he sleeps somewhere. He was up and being Podrick pretty much before 5. I feel bad for Crystal, she’s already awake, and has to deal with him while desperately try to doze. I managed to lightly sleep. At one point I felt Pod flop next to my butt, but sadly he got up and ran away.

But, Pippin has finished her breakfast, so I’ll let her out of the bedroom. I guess it’s official. It’s time to start to wake up. More coffee? Lemme top that off for ya.

Good morning afternoon everyone. Yep, I’m home from work. I’m tired. Not as tired as Crystal, mind you. But tired nonetheless. I think I got up around 2 or 3, to go to the bathroom. I navigate at night using my spidey sense, and not my eyes. After I was…

Here I am stuck in the middle with you

So it snowed. And snowed yesterday. At one point there was no visibility at all out there. It snowed for hours, and when it finally stopped – I was left alone on the store. We were closed, but it let me get a lot of things done. More than if…

The meat carved was drawn from succulent juices

May 17, 2025

Good afternoon! I’ve been up since 5 this morning, when my alarm scared the shit out of me. I managed to shut it off, but accidentally turned on the second alarm, which went off around 6. At that point, Podrick had already been in the bedroom terrorizing Crystal while she…
