Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms

Posted on by Shawshank

It’s cold out. Wicked cold. I think when I pay a visit to the local notary, I’ll drive. Again, it’s cold out.

I really like the picture above, Mal met Lexi for the first time. They were unimpressed.

I think I had a good sleep last night. A little tossy turny, and I tried to burrito again. Even with the bed on 4/5, I think I was still cold.

Coffee is brewing and I’m fully dressed. I’m already cold. It’s not nice, but soon coffee will be really to warm the cockles of my heart.

Big congrats to Tom Brady – 7 rings, and 5th Super Bowl MVPs. At 43. He really is the GOAT.

You’re lovely baby, this war is crazy, I won’t let you down oh

Good morning! It’s still chilly freakin cold outside – -39c with the wind, and it’s not supposed to get warmer. I’m pretty sure that he’ll has frozen over, or it’s the day after tomorrow.

So I don’t think that I’ll be leaving the house today. I don’t have any plans that involve being outside, which is a nice thing. I just have to clean, then relight it.

Last night our planned date night had to change a little. Crystal sold the TV, so it was a scramble (in my mind), to figure out what to do. So I upgraded our Netflix, and we found a movie and settled down to watch.

We watched The Trial of the Chicago 7. What. A. Great. Movie. If you haven’t seen it, you should go and watch it. It’s available on US, and Canadian Netflix.

I should be able to take some time to do some reading. If you missed my last (I’ve been slacking) Book Club post, I’m currently reading Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth – multiple story lines, multiple timelines, and footnotes, I’m in!

But for now, some coffee, and contemplation before Shady Acres starts to wake up. I love you. Happy Superb Owl Sunday. Go Tampa Bay!

And her memory is all that is left for you now

I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. It was so warm and snuggly, and the outside world is cold and mean. I could’ve slept in at least anoint hour or two I believe.

If it was my choice I wouldn’t go into work today. I’m really hopeful that it’ll be busy, but it’s always a crapshoot. Last week was wicked busy, and when I worked the week before, dead. It’s weird.

It’s not pretty out there. I think I’ll just pour the coffee on me. I’m gonna freeze to death walking to work today.

RIP in peace, Shawshank.

Happy Saturday 🙂

In the darkness, there’s so much I want to do

I’m awake. The alarm didn’t scare me this morning. It was more like someone slowly turned up the volume, until it woke me up. I think I was asleep before my head hit the pillow. I also don’t think I moved all night.

But it’s Friyay. I hope today and tomorrow go quickly. I just kinda wanna hunker down and just be warm. It’s hard when outside it’s almost -30 with the wind.

I’m ready for spring.

And a cup of coffee.

Yesterday was pretty good. BossLady wasn’t there so it was a little more relaxed. We worked out on the floor for a good part of the day, worked in the office, and then the last hour or so, we just did busy work.

According to the big board (giant calendar) in the office, I’ll probably be by myself for a couple of hours today. BossLady has to take one of her kids to MostlyBiggerCity to take a drivers test, and NewGirl has a doctors appointment or something.

I can’t wait for today to be over. It’s been a long week. Course it always is.

Happy Friyay! It’s sweet potato fry-day!!!

Just an invitation would have been just fine

Woke up very briefly at 5:48 – made sure my alarm was set correctly, and then it was just a light sleep, with weird dreams that faded so quickly when I woke up.

Nevertheless, I’m up, and I’m patiently waiting for the coffee to finish brewing. It’s a really old pot, if I wanted a cup now, I’d have to put my cup under the pot because doesn’t stop spitting out coffee. There’s no pause switch.

It’s cold here again. It’s like -30 out there with the wind chill. At this point, I really wish it was late spring. I’m really tired of the snow and cold.

I really dislike being cold. And I’m rarely cold. Until I got here.

I hope y’all enjoy your Thursday. Hopefully it’ll get warmer here soon. I’d rather just smoke some weed and curl up and binge something on Netflix.
