So I keep chasing that same old devil down the same old dead-end highway

Posted on by Shawshank

It’s Friyay motherfuckers!

The Beautiful One, Crystal, let me sleep in until 8 this morning. Sleep daddy disappeared in the early morning and I was woke up to being chased through a corn field (iykyk) I hit the back button (I think), and then it it again to find sleep daddy again. I had to open one eye and unlock the phone to find what I was looking for.

I dozed for a while, then slipped back into actual sleep, after Crystal banished Podrick from the bedroom. I was out again, and Crystal probably said to herself, fuck it, might as well let him sleep. So we’re on the couch with some coffee. I looked up at the news and there was Kristi Noem. Great.

Work wasn’t too bad yesterday evening. I filled some propane, and listened to my co-worker bitch that people are coming into the store. How the turns have tabled. Before my meds, I would’ve been the one really annoyed. Now, it’s all good. It truly is what it is. The afternoon and evening moved pretty quickly.

One more 8 hour shift, and I have the weekend off. The Royal Rumble is on Saturday afternoon. Yesterday, I had a thought. Snacks for lunch as we watch. Hopefully, what I have pictured in my mind can translate to real life. I’m sure it won’t, but I’ll do my best to get it to look like what’s in my mind.

Been drinkin’ since a half past noon

Still dark out when we wake up. Podrick has been up for at least 2 hours. He’s been doing Podrick things. Mostly annoying (I think) Crystal. He clomped across me once or twice I think. He’s just been doing bored Podrick things. Can’t really be mad at him for that. Annoying, yes.

I don’t think I stayed awake too much after the introduction on Sleep Daddy’s sleep video last night. I think I might have heard a little bit of the talk down. But if I did, it wasn’t too much of it.

We actually did something yesterday! We drove to OtherSlightlyBiggerTown. We checked out the local second hand store, where I found a new pair of long underwear. So I’ll try those today when I’m getting dressed. You always can use more layers, when you live north of the wall. Crystal grabbed some tank tops, and other clothes that she saw that jumped out at her. After that, we headed to the local fast casual restaurant. Burgers and chicken fingers were ordered, and then consumed.

We drove back to TinyTown, stopping at work to grab some hamburger buns, and the creamer that I bought Monday, and I’ve been forgetting each night. We needed it this morning.

‘Twas a really good day yesterday.

Back to work this afternoon!

Had to tell the landlady I done lost my job she said that don’t befront me

Podrick was locked out of the bedroom this morning. He was 4x4ing across me, and digging in the shelves next to Crystal’s side of the bed. So she took him, and removed him. I have no idea what time that was.

The wind finally died down yesterday evening. I don’t know when it happened, but suddenly there was no wind, just the cold. I may be weird but I don’t notice the cold, if it’s windy out. I think it should start to warm up around Saturday or so. It’s been a cold month so far. Not a lot of snow. Just cold.

Work wasn’t too bad, yanno, just cold. But we survived, and thrived. We had a delivery, but for some reason it was a small one. It took longer to check it off. In fact, my co-worker was joking that I had most of it put away before he had finished checking it off.

I’m just that good.

At the end of the night, I get home with a bag of expired marshmallows for hot cocoa. We settled on to the couch and I put on Tuesday nights episode of NXT. It was ok. They’re trying to rebuild the roster, as RAW, and SmackDown! kinda took a couple of their big name guys. It was still a good show. I was sports entertained.

Day off today. Maybe I’ll drag Crystal to OtherSlightlyBiggerTown and take her to a second hand store. And it’s a bigger one. Then we’ll grab some lunch as well. And burger buns.

Oh, get down, turn around, go to town, boot scootin’ boogie

Podrick lumbered across my legs 3 or four times this morning. It’s like he’s 4x4ing across the bed. I know he doesn’t mean to hurt but, yo, he does. It’s like a shiatsu massage gone wild.

The mid shift wasn’t too bad yesterday. I’m a little sore, I spent the first 2.5 hours on my hands and knees cleaning the corners of the store. Where the mop can’t get to. I had a little scrubby brush, and I went to town. Course the floors are so terrible, you can’t tell the difference, but I had something to do for a solid couple hours. That’s a good thing.

I didn’t do too much when I got home. I had to soak my clothes in a mixture of vinegar, and water. I got covered in gas yesterday morning. We almost got all the gas smell out of the clothes. So I’ll wear them for the rest of the week. I should be able to work the smell out of them.

Back to work this afternoon. Back to the normal schedule again until the next change. I don’t mind randomly different shifts. It keeps you on your toes. So does coffee.

I’m gonna go and drink some. Happy checks date, Tuesday everyone!

Hoping it’ll take me just a little farther down the line

Back to work this morning. Mid shift today. So of course I’m up early because, I had an alarm set. My body loves to wake up hours before the alarm goes off, to fucking make sure I’m awake. Always hours before the alarm. This time, it started at 4am. Then I woke up at 5:40.

Fuck it. Time to get up.

I’m gonna write this post, and then get up, shower, and get dressed. Hopefully the 8-4 shift will go somewhat quickly.

Fingers crossed.

The New England Patriots are in the Superb Owl for the first time since, I believe they said, 2019. So yeah, it’s been a while. It’s been a heck of a rebuilding decade. It’ll be the patriots vs. The Seahawks. It should be a good game.

Coffee is brewing, but I already have a cup. Once I shower, I’ll see if Crystal would like to get up. Then, I’ll spend the last minutes of warmth on the couch before heading to work.

Happy Monday everyone!
