Drove my Chevy to The Levee, but The Levee was dry

Posted on by Shawshank

Good Saturday morning my friends. It’s a dark start to the day, but here we are. It doesn’t feel that cold out, which is a good thing. It’s gonna be a busy day today. After work, we’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown to do some grocery shopping and a couple of other things. Since I had a work event last night, we’ll be having our date night tonight.

I’m thinking breakfast for dinner.

We’ll see.

But I’m thinking, yes breakfast.

Other than heading into town, we don’t have anything planned which is nice. I don’t plan on doing a whole lot of anything this weekend. Looking a head, I shouldn’t have too many plans for next weekend as well. It’s remembrance day next weekend.

Not too much to report from the last week. Just busy with the sale, and trying to get as much stuff in front of peoples face as possible. The sale is going pretty good.

Man, this coffee tastes good today. I think I made a damn fine cup of coffee. So I apologize that the post is short. I’ll make it up to y’all later, I promise.

But first coffee. And the thought of bacon later on.

You want a piece of my heart

Greetings from the day before the weekend. Is it still a Friyay if you’re working on Saturday? Ahh, the age old question. It’s a somewhat dark morning, but it doesn’t feel too bad out there.

It’s another late night tonight. It’s the second of three ladies night at work. Not a big of a crowd but still in the double digits. Hope like the last, these ladies will buy some furniture and furniture accessories.

My back is still angry with me, and my face is a little puffy. My left eye is looking rather nasty. I’m keeping an eye on it, and really trying to remember the feelings that I had when I had shingles last year. I really hope that it’s not shingles but maybe just something that’s not shingles.

I was tossy turny for most of the morning. I know I got up around three to use the bathroom. Then just mostly awake from about 6:30 on. I was expecting the alarm, but it still scared me.

But the faster the day starts, the faster it’ll be over, right? Right? Happy Friyay my friends, let’s raise our coffee cups for a Friyay salute.

Good morning my friends. I slept mostly through the night. I was up briefly around 6 am, and dozed until the alarm went off. I feel like I got in a fight last night. Sure enough, my left eye is a little swollen. Weird, huh?

Yesterday was too bad. Just hectic. BossLady can’t just tell you what she wants. There’s a whole process of her thought patterns. And it usually requires you watching her write down stuff. The stuff I need explained like I’m five, is usually glossed over, and the stuff that’s easy gets the through explanation.

The coffee has been brewed, and is currently being consumed. It’s a late night at work tonight. It should be a fun time. It’s a design night. BossLady likes them because she’s the centre of attention, and she does what she does best – talk about herself.

Oh and I get free desert, and drinky-poos. I believe she bought 2 cases of champagne. For the three nights that she’s having these design nights. This is the first night with over twenty people coming. The next two nights are a lot lighter on guests. S’ok, we’ll deal with it.

I need more coffee. Happy Wednesday.

Good morning! Who has two thumbs and is currently really really anixious. That’s right, me. Yay. I woke up about a half hour before the alarm, panicking. You see, NewNewGirls last shift was Saturday. There’s no buffer anymore. It’s just BossLady and me again. You see, she made the decision to close the store, mid September I think. And we’re one week into the closing sale.

I really don’t want to work today. But I have to, and now I have to convince my body and my mind to fucking relax. It’s not really working today. I’m trying deep breathing, but when you wake up in the middle of the night freaking out about going to work in the morning it’s not going to be a good day.

I’m gonna try to make it a good day, but it’s up in the air whether or not it’ll be a good day. I’m very hopeful.

I can always feel my mood changing around Sunday mid morning. The edge comes back. The humour is a little more forced. The mind is starting to race. Monday during the day isn’t too bad, but once it gets dark, my mind knows that Tuesday is coming freaking fast, and there’s nothing that I can do about it.

I need more coffee. It’s gonna be a long long day. And I’m not looking forward to it. Yay Tuesday.

Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide

morning y’all. It’s a grey darkish morning out there today. I was just outside, and it was starting to snow. The snow has only been here for like a week or so, and I’m already tired of it. But it’s gonna be with us for the next six months or so.

I’ll deal.

I slept ok last night. Weird dreams, which I can’t remember. All I can remember is having dreams, and being just totally comfortable under all the blankets. I got up it the total middle of the night to go to the bathroom. Everyone was asleep. I did what I had to do, and flew back into bed. The next time I opened my eyes it the clock said 6:33.

Last day off before heading into work. I’m going to do my best to not think about it. It’s going to be crazy there, and BossLady will be on edge. So I’m going to do the adult thing, and simply not think about it. It’s easier that way.

Nothing much planned for today. Quick trip into SlightlyBiggerTown for some essentials, and probably lunch. Nothing major.

So let’s get the day started, shall we? I need more coffee. I’m still a little groggy.
