Hello, world. Happy Sunday. I was up hella early because Shawshank was rearranging all the bedding, then I dozed until Podrick came up for his snuggle. He stretched his front paws across me until they nearly touched Shawshank. Just as I started to fall asleep, he quietly got up and jumped off the bed, letting me sleep a little longer.

We had a busy Saturday. We drove out to Slightly BiggerTown to make the shopping rounds, grabbing everything we needed before picking up lunch to go. “If we forgot anything”, Shawshank said as we hit the main road, “I can pick it up at work.” Maybe fifteen minutes down the road, he realized we did forget something: his father’s birthday gifts. We continued home and dropped off the groceries and lunch, then got back on the road.
We headed in the opposite direction this time, going to BiggerTown. They have more stores, and their secondhand shop is open on the weekends. Shawshank found some gift cards and a burger, and I left with a fever dream of a Temu sweatshirt. Back home, we chilled on the couch, vaping and playing “Burnout Paradise” until we got hungry enough to eat the sandwiches. It was a nice day.
Today is already shaping up to be a typical Sunday. The first load of laundry is in the washer, and we’ll be going out to Shady Acres later today.
