Just me and a friend feeling kind of groovy, workin’ on a movie (yeah, right)

It’s a gray morning out there, and it’s chilly. I had to put on actual pants. Good morning my friends. I’m told it’s Monday. And today we’ll be heading out to SlightlyBiggerTown for some much needed supplies. Podrick is running around like a crazy person. He’s been a demon this morning. He jumped on Crystal’s face, so was ejected from the room.

We’re up now, and enjoying some coffee this morning. And I’m listening to the news talking about instagrams new feature: the live map, or whatever it’s called – and the user outrage over it.

The rain has started. Well, it’s been raining for a little while – I could tell, from the wet roads. I think it’s supposed to be rainy most of the day, and if it’s not raining, it’s just a flat gray. Maybe the heat and summer will come tomorrow. I’ll let you know.

But for now, I’m gonna wake up, focus the eyes, make The Beautiful One laugh at least once. When the time is right, we’ll make our pilgrimage to the next town over, on the other side of the tracks, and get some motherfucking food, weed, and a sub. And it’ll be a good day.

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.

Hey hit it! Nah, na na na nah, na na na nah na na nah, na na nah, na na na nah

It’s my Friday!

I didn’t even feel Crystal get out of bed this morning. It was just nice a quiet, and I was sleeping. I’m a little stuffed up this morning so that was present when I was trying to sleep. I wedged my arm under the side of my face in an effort to breathe. It mostly worked and I slept until The Beautiful One woke me up gently.

It looks like a somewhat sunny, but probably gonna be overcast all day. Thankfully I remember to bring my hoodie to work. But it’s freakin August, why am I still dressing in layers? It’s been a weird summer weather wise. It feels like it’s been an extended spring. I wonder if September is gonna be burning?

Work wasn’t too bad. Just the right pace to stay mostly busy for the evening. Hopefully it’s like at tonight as well. We’ll see. We kept the store together, and slung Red Bulls for whomever wanted them. It was good up until the very end. My mental math was 100%, but I must have hit the wrong button on the calculator, and I had to troubleshoot, which added some minutes. I ended up getting into the truck at 9:15. I still count that as a win.

Back at it for one final time this week. It’s gonna be a good quick day at work, and I’ll be home at my normal time. Maybe, if it’s chilly out, I’ll demand hot cocoa tonight. We’ll play that by ear.

Coffee first.

If I could get in, drop me a pin, hop in the whip and come over

I don’t know if Podrick let us (me) sleep, or if Crystal shooed him out of the bedroom before he could wake me up. But it was a glorious sleep this morning. It was a good sleep all around. But as always, the last two hours is the best sleep. And the bed was the perfect temperature.

Work wasn’t too bad last night. Quiet, but it was still a great night. We did some cleaning, and helped out the customers that came in. We got a new air compressor, so the public will be happy that they can once again use free air. I have to get used to the air compressor randomly turning on to maintain air pressure.

The rains came last night around 7, I believe. It was too bad, the step up from drizzle. But we got a mini light show with some lightning, and the thunder was pretty loud at some points. Since it was close to the end of the night, I didn’t have to go out into it too much. But I closed up the shop, and I was on my way home.

It looks like it’s gearing up to be a nice sunny day out there. Sure beats the gray days from last week. The sun makes me happy. However, according to my weather app, the sun is short-lived – the clouds will roll back in. Yay

When the lights go down in the city

The troubles started when I woke up early this morning. I had lost my mask, so I improvised. I go to the bathroom, and that’s when I woke up Podrick. I climb back into bed, and try to go back to sleep. I think I might have even for a minute or two. He was in full Podrick form this morning. He really was pissing off Crystal. The last straw was he got into a cabinet. Crystal flew out of bed. A few minutes later, after trying to get Pippin to snuggle, I figured it was time to start the day.

Day started.

I think Podrick and Pippin are actually sitting together on the table at the back door. I don’t want to get up to check, because that’ll remind Podrick that there’s other people in the Flat, so I’ll let him think that he’s the king here. The next time I’ll get up is after this, to refill my coffee.

Yesterday, was really nice. I didn’t do shit. I did a quick meal prep for today and tomorrow’s lunches. Other than that, we just played Nier Automata all day. We’re almost in the same spot, I’m just a couple of big fights behind the Beautiful One. Crystal made a gorgeous, and tasty curry last night. We feasted and watched NXT. After the wrestling, I put on a couple of National Geographic for the rest of the night.

And now here we are. I believe it’s Thursday my dudes. So yeah, it’s another day.

More coffee pls.
