When the wizard gets to me I'm asking for a smaller heart.

It’s a sunny fucking Friday morning, y’all. The cats are in the sunny spots, the crows have been fed, and we’re in our respective places on the couch. Podrick snuggled me at regular intervals until it was time to get up.

Work was pretty damned boring last night. I stuck it out for four hours, but made almost jack shit for the night, and got some new followers, which is good. I haven’t put my new game options into play yet, mostly because I don’t really know what the best way to implement them in the “show”. I’ve come up with two options, one I can put into effect immediately, and one that would require an extra purchase or two while we’re out this weekend. Honestly, I want to implement both, and probably will.

Eventually, anyway. I made a little change to things just now, and we’ll see how it goes tonight.

Let’s all have a good day, everyone.

so close to Friday and no weekend in sight

Hello, world. The morning is here. We’re drinking coffee and watching news and seeing what happened in the overnight hours.

We did pretty much nothing yesterday. Shawshank made brunch for us, with me lending my skills to add some french toast to the meal. I got high and watched him play Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 until dinner time. I showed him how to tunnel through hills and run tracks underground. Eventually, after 3 hours of setup, he let people in the park.

I worked on my own park later. This is another park where I wanted some mountains, and coasters that go through them, and made a figure-8 shaped monorail that runs around the park. When I first finished the monorail, I hated it. I almost deleted it 5 minutes after I finished it, but forced myself to leave it and at least give it a fucking shot. The center of the map has two monorail stations fairly close together, plus a coaster station. There are some little hills as well, because I hate flat maps. I’ve started making wider “main street” style avenues, and spacing rides a bit farther apart. I fill in spaces with trees and hide wooded paths between the little hubs of activity that I build up around the stations.

Shawshank stuck me in a bubble bath to finish the night. It was hot.

We’re back to work today, for a few days in a row I think. I have some ideas for new ways to fuck with my guys, but haven’t implemented the system yet. If I didn’t have so many cords involved, I could put the laptop in my lap and probably get the system working while I stream, but I know the limits of my attention span. Five minutes into set up, I’d forget the guys exist.

Allo, world. Happy Wednesday. We’re up, and doing adult human things: sitting on the couch, watching/listening/absorbing news programmings and drinking coffee.

We were productive yesterday. Shawshank pulled the houseplants out to the patio to pick all the dead leaves off things and swapped some pots. Laundry was dealt with. I scrolled through my phone and laptop while Shawshank played Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 and read him posts from models who really need to get out of the biz because they’re totally the type to go to a second location.

The secondhand shop was open in the afternoon. Shawshank cleared out one of the shelves, packing the books up for donation. He left one shelf open for cat access. We made a detour to Shady Acres to pick up the leftovers from last month’s yard sale, then emptied everything into the secondhand shop’s donation shed. I hadn’t even entered the actual shop before I was leaving with something: a small 1960’s Melmac sugar bowl and creamer set that someone had stuck in the “FREE” shelf. Shawshank snagged a fluffy towel for the cat shelf, and I found a bra and two decks of cards.

YOINK.

Since everything that needed to be done was dealt with yesterday, today is a sloth day. Shawshank is going to make brunch for us, I might deal with some promo stuff on fansly, and my only real goal is to do my nails.

These immature sunflowers can land a better Superman punch than Roman Reigns.

Hello, world. It’s another morning, but it’s sunny and warm enough to have at least one door open for the cats right now. Podrick was good enough to let Shawshank sleep until 8am. On the other hand, I, being the cat-momma, was the recipient of several snuggle attacks overnight. The headbutts have been very aggressive lately.

My bird seed sunflowers spent the last couple of days growing like mad. One of them has had a visible “head” for a week now. The second one’s head popped out yesterday. They’re both taking their sweet time blooming.

I had one of those shifts yesterday. It was ridiculously slow all afternoon. The big tipper was back, but he was broke1 and just took advantage of the free banter. The annoying squealing noise was back, the one I thought was a truck. It turned out to be my aurora light. The mechanism that makes the light shimmer already emits a grinding noise all the time, however, the screech is new. I took a second break, and considered logging off because of the noise and how quiet my traffic was. Unlike a work truck, though, I actually have some control over the situation. I took a break, smoking enough to put me in a very personable mood, slapped the light around until it stopped screaming, then got back on the bean. The next hour netted me about $44. I logged out and made the unsexiest of dinners: a liverwurst sandwich.

We have the next two days off. I want to go up to the secondhand shop and look for treasures and junk.

  1. I sort my viewer list by how many tokens they have in their wallets, so I get a rough idea of whether the people marked as big spenders are in a position to spend big. ↩︎

Good morning, world, it’s another Monday. The sun’s out, the doors are open, and we’re looking at a mild day ahead of us. Each cat has taken up guard posts by a door, watching over the world.

This man has a closet full of homemade canopic jars.

I streamed twice yesterday, starting off on TikTok to put on makeup and talk wrestling, before moving onto Chaturbate after lunch. The guy that spent a lot of tokens on me the other day was back, asking “are you ready to drain me again?” I was more than willing, but he wasn’t into tipping this time around. I’m not into edging these dudes for free, so I ended up logging out in favor of hydration, cats, and coasters.

While my initial mountainous park with its underground coaster was a failure that I closed out of, I had saved the park prior to trying to make the coaster. I loaded the empty grounds and made another go at it, this time tunneling through smaller chunks of the mountain rather than going under everything. Things look ok, but I kinda hate my monorail and might rip it out.

Today is the last day of our work week, Shawshank has the next two days off. I’m going to have a good night, because I’m going to make it good. The thrift shop is open tomorrow.
