You’re all alone and the dummies might be right

Shawshank, June 3, 2025

Good morning. The baby one let me sleep in mostly. He was a good little boy, and was just on the bed when I woke up. Sometime in the night, twice, he was under the blankets snuggling, and I thought he was playing. So I pulled him out of the blankets. I’m not used to a kitten that actively wants to snuggle under the blankets. Pippin would come in and snuggle, but he burrowed and was closer to my stomach than Pippin would go.

Yesterday was a different one. My entire schedule was flipped upside down. I woke up, and it was dead quiet. Everything was off. The power was off. So we got up, and sat on the couch. I was chilly so we got up and hopped into the shower after the shower, and making sure work was still open, I got dressed and went to work to get some coffee for us. As I was pouring, I got a text from Crystal. because of course that would happen. So I paid for the coffee, and drove back home, where I turned the coffee pot on. I was happy that the power came back on, so I could actually make lunch.

After all that, I pull into work feeling slightly off. I just felt blahh. It was gray outside. Not a lot of sun. And it was chilly. I just didn’t feel like myself. This morning, the sun is shining. I had a really good sleep. I feel more myself.

On Sunday, we hauled the Switch to Shady Acres to show my dad one of the most addictive games we’ve played – Balatro. He listened and watched me stumble my way up to round 15. He’s played poker before, and was calling out hands. With the meds that he’s on, he doesn’t really have a lot of short term memory, but we wrote the name of the game down, and I got this text yesterday while I was at work.

I’d say Balatro is a hit over there.

I have a day off today. I don’t plan on doing anything major today. Maybe we’ll go to the second hand store. Maybe I’ll drag The Beautiful One to SlightlyBiggerTown and we’ll check out the second hand store there. Who knows, the world is our oyster.

But first: covfefe.

Awake. From the looks of my bed, I was a tossy turny boy last night. I mean it was a good sleep, I think, but still. Only up a couple of times in the night. Yesterday was pretty uneventful. In the Morning I went over to Shady Acres to do a load of laundry, and…
