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

Shawshank, April 5, 2026

It looks gray, damp, and cold out there this morning. Spring on the prairies is a nasty business. Nasty, until the morning you wake up, and everything is green. It kinda sneaks up on you. However, it was a really nice drive into SlightlyBiggerTown. Since it’s a long weekend this weekend, the grocery store wasn’t as empty as we’re used to.

We made good time to the next town over. First stop; the pharmacy. Crystal needed some eyelash glue, so we stopped in there and looked for what Crystal needed. She couldn’t find what she was looking for, so we hit up the town general store to look for a child proof door knob thing. Couldn’t find one, so off we went to the grocery store.

Like I said, it was a lot busier than we’re used to. The first half of the store was pretty empty, because it’s a more open area, as it’s the bakery, the fresh cooked food, and the vegetable area. It’s always more difficult, when you’re looking for something for dinner, before you’ve even eaten lunch, so we headed into the general area for the meat and potatoes of the grocery shopping experience. Simone for the last 3 or 4 shopping events, we haven’t had a list; we’ve been shopping by vibes.

After the grocery store, we only had a couple more stops to go. We hit up the weed store, I team across the street to the vape store, and then we drove to Subway. We grabbed our sandwiches, and made the 30 minute drive back to TinyTown.

We ate our Subway, and I put on angry science man. I fell asleep for the end of the video, and since I had Pippin on my lap, I asked Crystal to grab the controller. For the next couple of hours (with massive help from The Beautiful One) I did stuff in Saints Row 4.

After that, NXT’s Stand and Deliver. Which was fun. Some of the matches went the way I hoped, and some didn’t. Our hero, Joe Hendry had a great match, where he valiantly tried to defend his title against three other wrestlers in a Fatal Four way match. But sadly, he lost the championship.

Chore day here. Shady Acres this afternoon. But until Shady Acres, it’ll be a relaxing morning. I might even play more Saints Row.

Coffee first. Happy Easter, pagans!

Fall asleep with a smile not knowin’ what I’m missin’

Well, I didn’t want to climb out of bed when the alarm went off this morning. The alarm got louder and louder. I was tossy turny last night. I wasn’t trying to get comfortable, I think I was cold and was trying to burrow. My weighted blanket was moving all around, which I had to…

Hey hey. Tired Shawshank here today. One of the other employees gave a weeks notice, and so I’ve been forced to better myself at work. I’m now learning to be a key-holder. Yay. So I got the basics this morning. I’ll have to be on my A game tomorrow. I slept pretty ok last night.…

Awake! The birds are singing, and it’s bright and sunny outside. It feels like it’s gonna be a hot one out there today. Hot, hot, hot. I was up just a little bit early. Pippin wanted snuggles, and was pretty vocal about it. Once I rolled over, she snuggled right in, and we both fell…
