‘Cause I’m fantasizing about riding my Chevy off into the sun

Shawshank, May 1, 2026

I was up a little early. Nothing to really do with Podrick. One of the cats – probably Pippin, made it into the cabinet, and knocked over a jar of elastics. Hopefully, neither of them ate any of the elastics. They’re both looking out the back door now. Yesterday at…

The thing about a small town, word’s gonna get around

Shawshank, April 29, 2026

It’s now the middle of the week. Podrick was being Podrick this morning. But, 6:30 is a lot better than 4:30-5, so I’ll take it. He only got me out of bed (and I think deep down, he knows it’ll get me out of bed), because he was playing on…

Honey, you’re the closest to Heaven that I’ll ever be

Shawshank, April 26, 2026

Podrick wasn’t really Podrick this morning. He was just loud. Loud wakes me up. Sleep daddy also woke me up. I can’t explain it. Most of the time I like just the quiet music. But today I’ve reset the music to when Timmy’s was talking. But before I actually got…

2 things.

Shawshank, April 25, 2026

Just two quick items: We’ve had Podrick the brave, the mighty, the simple for a year. Wow it’s already been a year. Mr Rick as he likes to be called is probably about 20lbs now. Big change from when we brought him home!
