People say, “You look like M.C. Hammer on crack, Humpty”

I slept in just a little compared to days previous. It was a little too warm for me to be under covers. I only meant to get up and go to the bathroom and come back, but then Podrick figured it was time for everyone to be up. You see, it was locked out of the bedroom for probably being a bit of a bastard.

And I’m sure The Beautiful One has been awake for at least 2 hours at this point. I feel guilty that I’m the only one that gets to sleep in. I wish that I could get up really early, and let her sleep. But we’ve tried that when I get the random opening shift. She’s already awake, and can’t sleep past a certain hour.

We didn’t do a whole bunch of anything yesterday when I came home from work. I was beat. I basically sat on the couch staring at the television. It took a little while, but I got up and made some lunch, and really times my hardest to stay awake. I managed to stay awake, but it was touch and go for a little while.

We had a gorgeous meal, and retired to the sitting room to relax for the rest of the night. We watched some shows on castles and really big homes in England, and what the families are doing to keep these giant houses running. It’s amazing the size of these “houses”.

Also started Mr. McMahon. What a sick man. But also so very interesting. We watched a couple of episodes. And now, here we are – chore day, AND Clash in Paris. That’s starting at noon, so I should get everything going, because I have no idea how long it’ll be. I’m sure we’ll get back from Shady Acres, and end up watching the main event. But let’s gooo!

Girl, I don’t need no lifted truck revving loud to pick you up

It’s bright and sunny outside.

A certain orange cat ate part of his favourite toy sometime in the night. It’s missing a bell.

We’re all up? And Crystal has fed the kitties. Pippin didn’t want to eat, so it’s sitting in the cupboard, and we’ll see if she wants to eat before I start to cook brunch.

I had a really good sleep this morning, which means that Crystal stole out of bed without waking me up, kicked Podrick out, and brought Pippin in to snuggle sometime this morning. the bed was the perfect temperature to snuggle. And snuggle I did.

Yesterday was a nice day, although a little chilly out. We got up and dressed and made our way over to the next town over for some grocery shopping, and to hit a couple of other stores. We got into town, and hit up the grocery store first. I actually planned ahead this time- I was wearing a hoodie, because it seems like the new grocery store is always so very cold in it.

We finished up the groceries, I packed them in the truck, and we walked to the dollar store. I don’t think we got anything there. Then it was over to the general store, and then to the pharmacy. After the pharmacy, we hit up the pharmacy for a couple of carts. Then on our final stop, I bought Subway for lunch, and then we were back in the highway pointed in the general direction of our tiny little town.

After quickly running out to grab a frozen pizza for dinner, because we forgot to plan ahead (in our defence we looled at the sushi, and it just wasn’t great last week, so we walked past it. And completely forgot to pick something up. After dinner, I put on a movie: K-Pop Demon Hunters. It was pretty good. The songs were catchy, and it had a pretty good story. I considered myself entertained.

Da da da da dada da daaaa I’m lovin’ it!

It’s a little earlier than normal. My head is pound pound pounding, and I think Podrick went to sleep. We’re up? And the kitties are fed. Well, Pippin is, Podrick will keep going back to his bowl every couple of minutes until the gross dry kibble is all eaten. He’s back eating. I first woke up sometime this morning, to a kitten under the covers. I don’t know which one it was, because both kittens like to go under the covers. I’m guessing it was Pod. I didn’t pet or anything, if it was Pod, I didn’t want to excite him.

Today will be a busy one. Chores, which I’ll start in a few, brunch. Because, I want brunch, and it’s yummy. Then we’re off to Shady Acres, to be personable and normal, because some family came to visit. I’ll do my best to be talkative, but I can’t promise anything. My cousin is here, probably with his kids, and his new girlfriend. My mom’s been freaking out because she’s Indian, and a vegetarian. But mom says she still eats chicken, so for a couple of days mom had asked us to find Indian vegetarian recipes. So I have no idea what kind of food we’ll be walking into today!

The sun is a bright orange this morning – still. A lot of wildfires in the northern part of the province. It’s been weird, fall like weather. For the last couple of days, it starts out nice and sunny, slowly clouds over, and then for a few minutes to about a half hour, it lightly rains or at the most drizzles. Then it starts all over again. Weird weather.

Let’s spend the night together from now until forever

After I pulled Podrick away from the blind cords, it sounded like he was throwing himself against the door like a little police officer trying to serve a warrant. He was so relentless, that the squad from Law & Order should be calling him to arrange an interview. Eventually he was let back in, and within minutes, The Beautiful One had to get up and out of the room to feed them, so I could sleep for another couple of minutes.

It was a big day here in TinyTown. It’s the annual Heritage Day. It’s a day of parades, food trucks, petting zoos, orbs, and of course, country music, and beer. We didn’t end up going. It’s gotten a little expensive with the cabaret being added onto the ticket. So we did our own thing. We watched the parade, and then managed to get some ground bison, and a block of Velveeta. for the rest of the afternoon, we were lazy. Crystal played Neir: Automata, and I tried to play Civ 7, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on my phone. Civ has way too much information, and GTA is playable but difficult. I’ll probably uninstall them.

Then it was time for SummerSlam. I had a couple seconds of trouble trying to get it up and running, but a quick reboot of the Roku, and we were off to the races. We followed along with the WWE subreddit for a while, until it was time to start to cook, so I paused it, and The Beautiful One and I started to make our Nachos. I think we enjoyed the matches that they put on for night one. As we got our plates of nachos, I hit play, and we ignored the subreddit.

I thought that matches were pretty good. Some a little slower than others. Some were funnier than others. But finally it was time for the main event. CM Punk vs Gunther. It was a very slow, technical match. I enjoyed it as much as you can for a slow technical match.

SPOILER ALERT:

Two more years and you’ll be done with school, and I’ll be making history like I do

Good morning party people. We’re up and sitting in the couch, on this gray, chilly, rainy morning. The Beautiful One, kicked out Podrick, and shut the door on him. I was out like a light again, and slept until her alarm went off. She, of course, was wide awake. Probably from about 4:30-5am. I don’t know how to help her stay asleep after that time. I really wish I could help her with that problem. It must be so tiring for her.

Work wasn’t too bad yesterday. At one point my coworker asked if it was gonna be busy or not, due to a rodeo the next town over. I had totally forgotten about the rodeo. I said it’ll probably be quiet. And it pretty much was. After 6, business dropped off. We still had people coming in, but it was just a handful of people instead of more coming through before we closed. We did have a couple of barrel racers come through with their mom to get diesel, and to get a propane tank filled up. That was the last large bill that came through. After that it was just the usual locals coming to get cigarettes and snacks before we closed.

Today is chore day, so I’ll be starting that in a bit. It’s too quiet, I think Podrick is planning something. But he’ll be helping me get the laundry sorted. He loves to dive through the clothes piles as they sit and wait for their turn in the washer. It’s cute. He’s like a clothes pile shark. Then we’ll head over to Shady Acres this afternoon for dinner. Work tomorrow afternoon. Coffee now, thankfully. Also, in a few hours, brunch.
