The things, you say your purple prose just gives you away the things, you say you’re unbelievable

Let’s see if my featured image actually shows up on the post. The WordPress/Jetpack app has seriously dropped in quality over the last couple of years. Half the time I get connection errors every day. Then it’ll say it’s uploaded a picture, but show a broken image in its place. I know I could use the web interface, but I find that so clunky.

It’ll sort itself out.

I’m sore today. Not in pain sore, just stiff. It was a busy afternoon at work. Two trucks to put away. I think me and Bing Bing did pretty good. I’d say I got both truck about 97% complete. Not too shabby for an old grumpy guy, and a kid that can’t concentrate on anything for longer than a couple of minutes.

Day off here, and I’m gonna be doing some laundry this morning, as I was loading up the energy drinks, I dropped a can, and it bounced and decided to spray its essence on my stomach and thigh. That was really the only mishap that I encountered whilst moving a lot of soda in a small space.

I really need more coffee. It’s a day, and a gray day at that. Oh, we were under a tornado warning for most of the night. No tornados though.

On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?

Good humid morning you fucking rock stars. It’s gray and foggy out there, and that means a wicked hot day is coming. Crystal says a high of 91°. It’s gonna be a scorcher for sure. Yesterday was wicked warm, and I think it only hit like 80.

Yesterday at work wasn’t too bad. We only had one truck, so that means we’ll probably get one or two tonight. And I have Bing Bing working with me tonight. The last time we worked together he spent 5-6 hours of eating candy, and then proceeded to act like a serial killer and stand behind me as I was trying to work.

So, needless to say, work tonight will be interesting. I’ll have to bring my A-game tonight.

I’m ready.

But I’ll need more coffee.

So let’s get ready to greet the day! Good morning world! Are you ready for me? I sure hope so!

We’ll be singin’ when we’re winnin’

It’s a gray foggy morning here. It kinda looks like Silent Hill out there. But it’s not really. Just foggy. Nothing paranormal here. It actually feels pretty quiet. But the heat is coming. We’re under a heat warning for the next couple of days. It was a little warm in the bed this morning, and I was stuffed up a little so it was difficult to breathe.

It was a really nice day here yesterday. My dad had good news about his hip and how it’s healing. I found out (they told me where they’d be a couple of weeks back, but I don’t have an appointment calendar like they do, so I forgot) where they were and asked them to pick up two things for us: allergy pills for me, and a big ol box of medical gloves for Crystal, so he can dye her hair without using the medical examination gloves I grabbed from the vet clinic.

As you can see from the picture above, there’s pretty much nowhere that’s safe from the orange tornado. He was a pretty good boy all day yesterday. He jumped on my head this morning. From, I think, the foot of the bed.

We didn’t do a whole lot of really anything yesterday. I cont remember how it started, but I put on AAA Triplemania, the pay per view from Saturday. I have to say I was pretty sports entertained for the afternoon. For the rest of the afternoon, we played Balatro. I’m just screwing around in the checkered deck, just playing around with different joker combinations, when all of a sudden the You Win! screen. I don’t really pay attention to rounds or antes, because after you skip one or two, I don’t have the brainpower to do the mental math. Needless to say, I was surprised.

All right, stop whatcha doin’ ’cause I’m about to ruin the image and the style that ya used to

Good morning. Up early on a day off is never a good thing, but at least I have lots of coffee. Podrick, wasn’t being an asshole this morning. He was just vocal. He was proudly standing on the dresser, and loudly proclaiming that it was morning, and it was time to get up.

So up we got.

I did my bathroom stuff, and then I headed out to the kitchen, and fed them both. A simple bowl of kitten chow, for the orange, and a bowl of soft food for the princess. She ate 90% of it, so the scraps were left to Podrick, which devoured. I think Pippin is on the table at the back door, Podrick on the other hand, was just looking out the front window.

It’s a very gray day out there. Last night when I looked at the weather app, it’s supposed to be sunny, and hot today. So far, it doesn’t look too hot and sunny out there. Ok, according to the weather app, the sun is supposed to come around two. We’ll see. Either way, we’ll figure out something to do, even if it’s just sloth, like last night – we just sat on the couch, and played Balatro all night. Literally, all night.

Ok, my cup needs to be refilled. It’s another day here in TinyTown. What’re your plans for the day?

Now it’s ’95 and they clock me and watch me diamonds shining, looking like I robbed Liberace

Good morning everyone! It’s a gray, and cool, and windy day out there, perfect for going to work today. Yep, instead of chores, I’ll be slinging gas, propane, and propane accessories all day. Come on down, you’ll be glad you did!

Knowing that I had to work today, I did the laundry yesterday. I also washed the kitties beds that go in the shelf in front of the big window. so they were both up there sniffy sniffing at the clean cat bed. Podrick is currently in time out in the bedroom.

See that picture above? Yep, my tired brain just played the white stakes on my favourite deck of cards. I’ve been just trying all the jokers that I’d normally just ignore. I’m trying new combinations, and just seeing what does and doesn’t work. I’m having fun. So yeah, while the win doesn’t really count, since I have unlocked any new decks or anything, I’m still learning.

So let’s get this day started. Coffee has been brewed, and the kittens are somewhat nice to each other. At this exact moment. So let’s call that a win. Happy Sunday y’all!
