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

Shawshank, January 21, 2022

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.”

I settled into a restless sleep until the alarm went off 40 minutes later. That’s when I got up, went to the bathroom, and then out to check.

Spoiler alert, I did pay rent for January.

Thank the gods for coffee!

The coffee is brewing, and the sun is slowly rising over the houses here in TinyTown. It’s another day. The last day off before next weekend. The cats are slinking around the flat this morning. I’ve already tried and failed to wrangle the cats. I slept like the dead last…
