Workin’ all day. Gotta bring home the bacon. So it’s a full day. It’s all good. I’m working with a good guy today. He’s learning how to be a key-holder. Not today, son. We want to get home and Sundays are not training days.

It wasn’t bad at work yesterday. Just bloody cold out there. And in the store. Someone turned the heat down, and since the wind was blowing and it was so cold, it did take a couple of hours to warm back up again.

But it’s gonna be a good day. A good but a long day. We’ll make it through, and then I’ll come home and make beans and wieners. Yum!

So I’ma love you every night like it’s the last night

Good morning party people! I actually slept until the alarm went off. It was crazy, and I even had a dream in a dream! I dreamed that I overslept, and it was like 11am and I was supposed to be at work for 8. I figured out that it was probably a dreams when I get up at 11, and expect to have a message or calls from my boss, and there was nothing.

So in my dream, if figured out that I was in a dream, and then the dream didn’t really change, and I didn’t get to fly or anything like that. Pretty closer to right after I figured I was in a dream, I woke up, and looked at the time. So was that my first foray into lucid dreaming?

Hmm. Interesting.

Coffee?

I can’t do pictures, I’m too busy, I don’t deal with the press

I’ve been up since 5 this morning. I wanted to sleep until my alarm went off, but alas, earwax – it never happened. I rolled out of bed and started my day.

It’s cold out. This morning was -28°C out there with the wind. I’m still dressed in layers and am shivering. It’s a nasty, but nicely sunny out. Sadly, the sun isn’t warming much of anything out there.

I don’t know what I’m gonna do this afternoon. I’ll probably play some Persona later, after Crystal’s YouTube show is over.

Back to work all day tomorrow. Hopefully it’ll go quickly, and without any major problems. Sundays are always long 8.5 hour days, and you have to do the opening and closing paperwork. But, yeah, it’ll be a day for sure.

But for today, thankfully nothing that needs to get done. I’ll do laundry on Wednesday when I’m off.

I’m crossing my fingers, and counting every kiss

Good afternoon everyone. How’s 2025 treating y’all so far? Me? Up at the ass crack of dawn, 15 minutes before the alarm went off. I didn’t want to over sleep, so I rolled out of bed and started the day.

I was warned last night. Lemme back that up. I got a text from BossLady asking if I’d change my closing shift to an opening shift, as the opener called out sick. I said no problem. Immediately, the guy that closed on New Year’s Eve texted, and warned me the store was a complete mess as groceries came as they were starting to close the store.

The back room was unkempt.

But we had everything cleaned up shortly after the store was opened. The morning was really slow, but started to pick up as we were getting ready for the next shift to take over.

Now I’m finishing this post and we’re gonna head out to the second hand store to see if anything is tickling our fancy.

Nachos for dinner.

Yum!

But I only liked the upper part (ooh-ooh) I did not like the tail

So it’s been a day.

I get to work and start the opening procedures, and then try to do the “dips” shits all frozen. Then I notice that there’s three minutes until we open, and my coworker hasn’t arrived yet.

Long story short.

BossLady had to come in for a few hours because when she texted the group chat at 7am, she was upset because no one answered her. Yeah because school is out, and everyone that works for her is pretty much nocturnal.

Mind you, it was a quiet morning and otherwise went without incident.

After work, we drove to SlightlyBiggerTown for groceries and dinner/brunch, which was really good. Now we’re just relaxing on the couch. Chaucer has climbed up on me and is very happy.

It’s a good day.
