Life Pretend you’re not a mess, be the happy family in the front pew Shawshank, March 2, 2026 Podrick got me up a little early this morning. He had the straw out of one of Crystal’s water jugs.

Life She’s on the highest dose of Prozac a woman can take Shawshank, February 22, 2026 The forces of the morning (and Podrick) tire me from my slumber early this morning. I tried ignoring him.
