And Betty when you call me, you can call me Al

Happy Friday everyone. I think I pretty much slept like a log last night. But like Crystal, I don’t feel rested. Maybe it’s just because I just woke up, and I’m waiting for the coffee to brew.

The junk guys visited Crystal this morning and from what she says the kitties are not taking it well, and she saved some couch cushions to sleep on. My mom ordered her to sleep on something.

I’m a head of we’re I need to be for the book club, so contrary to what I told Crystal, I grabbed Sharp Objects to read after our video call. I’m pretty sure I’ve read Gone Girl before, but Gillian Flynn can paint a picture with words.

I don’t think there’s any plans for today. We did everything yesterday. Last night I was shown how to light the pellet stove. Which is good, because it feels like -12c out there.

Be safe everyone.

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

It’s cold. It’s cold, and I didn’t want to get out of a perfectly heated bed. According to my weather app, from now until the 24th, there’s 3 days that will be above freezing. 3 DAYS THAT WILL BE ABOVE FREEZING.

I’m not ready for this type of weather.

My jeans are too tight to fit long johns under them. I’m gonna freeze, and break into a million little pieces.

I think I’m actually going to have to close my window tonight. I was cold last night. About 5 thins morning, I had to climb under all the blankets.

I got a nice solid hour of reading The Historian. It’s starting to roll along at a faster pace now. I’m really enjoying it. Two separate stories going at once. After Ship of Theseus, this is easy to follow!

The one weird dream that I can remember from last night was a little strange. I was back at the cadet camp that went to from 13-19. I think I was my normal age, but I was a staff cadet, just arrived for duty so to speak. The camp had changed, as it does over time. I was in one of the staff tents getting my uniform ready for the next day. All my old friends were there. I guess Crystal had shipped up all the stuff she didn’t want to bring with her – there were books, and random boxes of stuff. I got hungry, went out the back of the tent, found Crystal, and we hopped on a motorcycle, and went for pizza.

Then a quick random dream of me going into a second hand store, finding two original gameboys, and a couple games – and letters back and forth between the previous owners and tech support trying to get them to work properly.

Then my alarm went off.

Candle light and soul forever, a dream of you and me together

I almost slept through the night! I mostly slept through the night. Mostly because I dosed myself with an extra 5mg melatonin. Whenever I woke up (even when I spilled my water – and had to clean it up), I went right back to sleep.

With the extra melatonin, I think that kind of muted my dreams. They were there, but not right out in from so, they’re all really forgettable.

I don’t know what’s going on today. We might be going into SlightlyBiggerTown. Then again, we might not be. Anyways, I’m up showered, and currently pouring coffee in my face, so I’ll be ready either way.

I’m pretty sure I heard the news say we might get some snow sometime today, but it’ll melt. Cow-town got some either yesterday or Thanksgiving. So it’s coming.

Winter is coming.

And we’re all sweet summer children.

Baby, it’s the thistle in the kiss

Another day, another night of weird dreams. Batman, living above a mall which was also a university. Strange, I say, strange. I was still tossy turny, and stuffed up, but I think it’s getting better. If not, I’m told I’ll be going to the doctor.

Coffee is brewing.

It was an ok thanksgiving yesterday. Lots of food. I ate my feeling yesterday. But you know what? Today is a new day! Grab it by the pussy, and take what’s yours!

Or don’t, if you’re an actual human. You do you. Happy Tuesday!

I only hope I won’t disappoint you when I’m here down on my knees

Good morning. Last night I forgot to take the trash out, because even though it’s thanksgiving, they still pick up the trash – on the holiday. Weird! So I dragged it out first thing.

Before coffee. Lol

I had more weird dreams all night, but none that I can remember this time. I did wake up a couple of times thinking that would should try to remember them. The only one I remember was the last one. My gramma got COVID, who gave it to my mom, who gave it to me, who gave it to My dad. I then had to go over to Crystal and tell her through the door, that she may have COVID as well. She opened the door and we made out with grabbing and pulling and all the stuff you shouldn’t do on the front step.

Since today is thanksgiving, I’ll be making green bean casserole, and homemade noodles for dinner. Lemme tell you, I’d rather be having turkey meatballs with Crystal. If it meant I could be with her, I’d eat yams, and cranberry sauce. I’d have a plate just of those items.
