Getting lonely as the days get dark if you’re bored and your mind starts changing

Posted on by Shawshank

Good afternoon my friends. It’s me. I’ve been up on and off since about 4 this morning. I ended up at around 4:11am, pleading with my mind that my alarm would go off and looked at the clock to prove to myself that the alarm was actually on.

I fell back asleep, and the alarm scared the shit out of me when it went off. I rolled out of bed, turned the coffee pot on, and then did my bathroom stuff.

I came out, and fed Chaucer, and he was happy. He eventually snuggled on my legs for a little while then moved to the cushion next to me. When it was time to go, I got up and trudged out to the truck ready to start my day.

But now I’m home, and I’m ready to relax. Just a shift at work tomorrow stands before me then a day off. I’ll do my chores and stuff on Monday. But today. Relaxation. Possibly watching an Oscar nominated movie tonight.

Appetizers for dinner tonight! Whoop whoop!

These so-called vacations will soon be my death. I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest

Good morning y’all. It’s a little warmer today than it was yesterday. But I think it supposed to get just a little colder until the end of next week, and then it’ll hit freezing I think – before the wind, of course!

I woke up early. It was shortly after 4, and again I said to myself, if I was up a 4:45, I’ll leap out of bed happy. Then my alarm scared me when it went off at 5. I get up and out of bed and do the bathroom stuff m, then I turned on the coffee pot and fed the animals.

Chaucer, got up and went to sleep beside me in the little bed I made for him the night before. He stayed there until I got up and left. He’s currently laying on my lap, as happy as can be. Pippin is in the window, enjoying some of the sunbeams filtering in.

Tomorrow will be chore day. And the fun part. Yesterday my mom texted me, saying that they’ve moved the trucks around at Shady Acres, and to jump my car and park it up there. I guess we’re gonna be driving my mom’s truck now. So tomorrow, whilst doing my chores, I’ll jump the Hot Mess, and drive it up there.

Not too much happens in TinyTown. And that’s just the way I likes it.

I recommend walking around naked in your living room yeah

Hey hey. It’s tired Shawshank. I was up at the ass crack of dawn today, and got ready for work. Before I knew it, I was at work and on top of the fuel storage to measure how much gas and diesel we have on hand.

Literally 100s of litres.

Work actually went pretty quickly. With the sun rising earlier, people in town are awake and moving a little early, so they come to us to get gas and snacks first thing.

After work I texted Crystal, who slept like a bag of shiz all night and we made the half hourish trip to SlightlyBiggerTown for some much needed supplies. With supplies in hand, we quickly stopped at Subway for lunch/dinner and came home.

We’ve eaten and now Crystal is playing Slay the Spire. I asked her to do whatever she wanted as she had a terrible sleep last night. I might even skip a shower, and let her take a bath tonight. To help her relax a little more.

Happy Saturday y’all. Back working again tomorrow.

I simply must go baby, it’s cold outside

So I wake up at 3am. I think to myself if I can sleep until 4:15, I’ll get up and get ready for work. The next thing I know the alarm is going off. For the first time in months, the alarm has woken me up.

It’s cold outside.

And very windy.

BossLady changed the schedule for today. Anticipating the bad weather, and said she’d probably be in after the sun rose. she changed me from 8-4 to 5:30-1:30. So that’s the reason why I was up so early. But now I’m done for the day, and have a day and a half off.

Yesterday was a nice day of sloth. I play a little bit of Persona 5 Royal, and then popped over to the post office to pick up my package. Crystal started to play Persona, so I watched her beat the game. And I finally got to watch the whole ending. It’s a good ending, but as far as I’ve read, not the true ending. I’m working towards that ending now.

I don’t plan on doing too much for the rest of the day. Maybe we’ll go to SlightlyBiggerTown tomorrow, or maybe after work Saturday afternoon. The weather and the roads will dictate that.

Good morning everyone. My eyes are still trying to focus, so this’ll be a pretty quick post this morning.

I slept like a rock until 5am. Now I feel like Crystal in the morning. Even though she was probably up a couple of hours before me. I was a little tossy turny this morning, trying to get back to sleep until my alarm went off.

Spoiler alert: I was up and out of bed two minute before the alarm went off. Good times.

Yesterday was a nice relaxing day of sloth. Sure, we went to the second hand store, and other than that, I just sat on the couch playing Persona 5 Royal all afternoon until it was time to season the wings and put them in the oven.

Back to work this morning for a rare 8-4 shift. I think it’ll be a pretty good day. Happy Friday everyone!
