But maybe someday when my ship comes in she’ll understand what kind of guy I’ve been

It’s dark, but the light is slowly filtering in through the clouds. I’m pretty sure I never moved last night. At least, I don’t feel like I did. I’m a little stiff and sore this morning, but that seems to be a pretty much normal start to each day now.

Good morning my friends. It’s a new day, and that new day means that it’s chore day here. As you know, I’ll be starting that in a couple of hours. Chaucer, the big boy, just laid down on my lap. I don’t think he was on the bed with us this morning. I think Pippin was all curled up in her nest.

Yesterday wasn’t too bad. I quickly ran to work to grab my meds and the rest of the mail that I totally forgot about in my rush to leave. I remembered it shortly after I got home. So I popped out and grabbed them. I also went to the gas station to pick up some snacks and a pack of gravy for dinner.

Later on in the late afternoon, I attempted to make Sheppards pie. It was pretty good. Not what I had envisioned in my mind, but it was still edible. So that’s a bonus in my mind, even if it didn’t look like an instagram photo of Sheppards pie.

We feasted.

So here we are. Crystal has been up since 5, and I’m groggy from sleeping. I feel terrible for her, I don’t know why she’s waking up so early. I know how it is, your eyes just open and there you are – awake. I’m still optimistic, and tomorrow (it’s always tomorrow), she’ll sleep in. It never happens, but I hope that it will.

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

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, and weed. Then, it was off to the restaurant for a late date night.

That breakfast platter was just what I ordered. Literally.

I have a Chaucer on my lap. He’s been waiting for this all morning, I’m sure. I slept pretty good last night. I didn’t wake up in the middle of the night, I got up about 10 minutes before the alarm went off, and I got to have an up close Pippin snuggles, right under my chin.

I wouldn’t say it was tense at work, there’s just a different dynamic in the store. You see, I gave my two weeks notice on Friday morning.

It did not go well.

Today is the last totally packed day. Chores in a few hours, and over to Shady Acres for dinner. Other than that, no plans for today. I have a couple of tasks on Monday, but that’ll take minutes.

Coffee is ready. If you want some, come on over. There’s more than enough. Happy Sunday!

And the beer I had for breakfast wasn’t bad so I had one more for dessert

*yawn*

Good morning my friends. If I said it was a bright and sunny day out there, I’d be lying. It’s gray, but the wind has died down a bit. It’s supposed to be windy and gusty tomorrow.

But we’ll deal with that tomorrow.

Today isn’t the day that we have to worry about. Today is the day that the chores get done. But what about yesterday, Shawshank? What did you do yesterday? You always recap the day before.

Fine, you silly people. Yesterday wasn’t too bad. It was a great relaxing day. But before the relaxing could start, there had to be some work. Around 11 my dad showed up to look at the Hot Mess Express. He determined that the alternator was still good and doing its job, so we removed the battery and drove it down the street and replaced it.

Within 10ish minutes, the Hot Mess lives again! Woohoo! A new tiny little batter is in the engine compartment. I was asked to let it run for a little bit, so I drove to the gas station, filled it up, grabbed a couple of items, and then it was off to the grocery store to get dinner.

With that grabbed, back home!

Crystal was already streaming Skyrim. So I hopped on to moderate (terribly, of course), and laugh at the foot people simply begging for “soles”. They’re so funny. As the young kids say they have no chill. It’s always amusing.

At the tail end of the stream, I was already making dinner, so when that was ready, Crystal shut off the stream and we feasted. We snuggled in the couch and watched The Haunting of Bly Manor on Netflix. It’s pretty good. VERY creepy. I like it so far.

And now, here we are. sunday Sunday SUNDAY. Yeppers, let’s get the day started. Happy chore day y’all 🙂

He lives on my block and he drives an IROC

It’s a gray morning this morning. I slept ok. I was today turny. Pippin at one point wanted to snuggle, but couldn’t commit to actually coming over to snuggle, so she walked away. I think it was around six, when I heard a weird sound coming from the bathroom. She was behind the door, playing with the lid from one of Crystal’s razors. I grabbed that and tossed it in the trash. Did my business, and crawled back into bed.

I just couldn’t get comfortable. I was too warm, then too chilly. I finally fell back to sleep, only to have the alarm go off, what felt like 30 seconds later. We’re both up now. When I got up, my mom had texted me fifteen minutes earlier, cancelling dinner for tonight, as she had in her words, a wicked migraine. I wished her well, and now my mind is trying to figure out something for dinner.

Thankfully, we’ll be headed out in a few hours for groceries over in SlightlyBiggerTown. I just checked the hours, and we’ll be heading out to arrive when they open at 11. That’ll give me sometime to write up a list for us.

But for right now, I have a snuggly Chaucer, Pippin is snacking. It’s going to be a nice day. Viva la Sunday!

I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild

Yep, it’s Sunday. And the weather has changed yet again. I’m all stuffed up, and when the alarm went off, I was in the middle of a nightmare. A tame nightmare, but a nightmare nonetheless.

I can’t remember too much of it. Me and Crystal, and my parents were in the halls of a court room, just waiting for the time to come to take me away. I was freaking out, but Crystal and my parents were eerily calm. It was storming out, and the last thing I remember before the alarm went off was saying that if they don’t come for me before 5pm, I could just leave, and they wouldn’t put me in the chair, or however they do death sentences. My parents said that we couldn’t leave because it was storming out, and the ferry wasn’t running in the storm. It was so strange. I didn’t know what was going on. So I was tosy turny, not because of the dream, but because I couldn’t really breathe through my nose.

Mouth breather all the way, I guess.

So I’m awake now. And have a Chaucer on my lap. Pippin tried to come into the bed this morning. I made room for her, and it seemed like she was gonna snuggle in, but then something else caught her attention, and she ran out of the room.

Yesterday was a nice and relaxing day. We got up and did our usual morning tasks and when those were done – we got dressed. After that, we made our way to SlightlyBiggerTown to grab a couple of items that we missed last week, hit up the drug store, and grabbed some lunch at Subway. They’ve gotten better. Well mostly better, it felt a little yesterday, like my bread was a little stale, but other than that, it was very good.

After lunch, we fired up the Switch, and I played No Man’s Sky for a little bit while Crystal did her nails. After a while, I turned on Skyrim and we set up the camera so Crystal could go live. And live we went. She got to kick some ass in the world, and chatted with some people that came in to chat. It was a fun afternoon.

Today is a new day, and it’s chore day! We’ll get them started in a while. Happy Sunday, have an extra large coffee.
