Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean

Shawshank, January 27, 2024

The call of the alarm clock was loud and clear this morning. It didn’t need to be. I was up around five, and got up to go to the bathroom. I came back in and fell back asleep. It was a light slightly tossy turny. It was a light sleep for the last two hours.

And now, here we are. Coffee in hand.

It wasn’t a bad sleep, mind you. Just too short, and of course the waking up early, only to wake up a couple hours later.

We have stuff to do this morning. I figure around 10, we’ll get up and make our way to SlightlyBiggerTown for some groceries, lunch, and anything else we need. I actually have a list. Hopefully, I won’t forget it like the last couple of weeks.

Date night was good. As usual we got there at just the right time. We placed our order, and within minutes two more tables filled up, and suddenly there was orders for about 5 pounds of wings. The food was, like always, very good. We ate, and then came home.

Just a typical Friyay afternoon.

Back to work tomorrow morning. The store is closed, but just about all of us will be there, for inventory. Not going over to Shady Acres this weekend, my dad is still sickly, and my mom is very stressed about that. My dad turns into a huge baby when sick. I’d rather not go over. So we’re not.

Chores and brunch on Monday, I might do a load of sweaters this afternoon after our outing.

Extreme cold. Yep that’s the truth. It’s currently -29c and -38c with the wind. Oh, and we’re expecting more snow sometime today. Fun. I slept almost all the way through the night. Only getting up once to go to the the bathroom. I think I was cold in the night as I tried to drag…

Thought it’s cold and lonely in the deep dark night I can see paradise by the dashboard light

Picture it: TinyTown, 2022. 6:20 am. My mind suddenly woke up and asked “did I pay rent for January?” I tossed and turned, trying to fight the upset stomach that showed up when I woke up. I used logic – “if I didn’t pay my rent on time, the landlord would’ve said something by now.”…

Here we are, awake again. Final push for the weekend. The dreaded 10-6 shift. Actually it’s closer to 9:30-6:15. But that’s not important. We’ll get through it. Sundays can go one of two ways: wicked busy, or deathly slow. I hope that it’ll be the third option: just busy enough to pass the day quickly.…
