Treat
My income tax came in Friday so I treated mom out to Ichiban last night. We both ordered filet mignon and scallops. We split a rainbow roll, the meal came with miso soup and a salad, fresh vegg...
Achy Breaky Body
My gout toe still hurts. The last three days, mid spine and to the left, has been hurting where I coughed hard and pulled a muscle. Heating pad and Icy Hot ARE great, I just wish it’d go away. ...

Breathing Through Clenched Teeth
My gout area keeps cramping up and it is excruciating. I can’t sleep, obviously, so I’ve got a Monk marathon on (even though I think I’ve seen every episode now.) I’ve done a bunch of word find...
Day 1 Again
Depression got the best of me and I drowned myself for a while. I’m watching History: Facts Vs Fiction. Prohibition lead to the invention of the cocktail. Moonshine and bathtub gin was so awful...
Swimming In Seafood
Yet another night of barely any sleep. There is a new Mexican restaurant called La Finka. Ironically they’re next to a Taco Bell. I’ve eaten at just about every Mexican joint in town and I hone...

Boxers And A Fan
It’s friggin’ February and mid-sixties out. I’m laying on the couch in my boxers with the fan on. Been awake since 3 something AM and I’m really tired. Got my taxes done earlier, will be getti...
Buttah Yo Bread
A coworker once told me that if it sounds like you were high when you made it, I don’t want to eat it. Ironically he said that as we stood in line at Taco Bell on our lunch break. With all tha...
It's 4:52 AM
And I want a half a slab of ribs, extra sauce. Been awake for about an hour. My sleep schedule is screwed.
I Miss Weed
Don’t get me wrong, the Delta 8 vapes are decent, but I want to actually smoke a bowl and get stoned off my ass. I’ll watch cats on YouTube and crack up laughing while drinking grape juice cause...
Warm Crotch
After some Tylenol and a good deep sleep I feel tons better. My lap is toasty ‘cause Smokey is curled up sleeping. It’s like petting velvet with him, so soft!
Hot Hot Heat
My body is ablaze with a fever. I’ve been drinking ice water like it’s going out of style. Mom is sick too. Fuck this shit!

Good Smells
There are beef chunks in the crock pot. The house smells delicious. Still need to add the potatoes in a few then I can eat after they are cooked. Wish I had a crusty, buttered dinner roll to dip ...

Seven Days!
Made it one week. Started Assassin’s Creed: Origins earlier. Takes place in ancient Egypt. My inner 10 year old is stoked. I had a thing for Egypt then. We got a new neighbor and they have a...
Book Description
I came on my own volition.
I am the man that got away.
Work -
Tonight I clocked in at 4:30 PM and it was suddenly Wednesday when I worked 6:45 AM to 6 PM with only an hour lunch break and on my feet the rest. I was trying to relieve Logan in the back who was frying chicken both for our loose case and boxed hot case so he could go to lunch. Instead I got mixed with a redneck who wanted a Philly steak and cheese. I made his sandwich to order only to be confronted with the elderly gentleman behind him. He, to this shit. o, wanted a Philly. I was annoyed. Angry. Granted chicken side cooking sucks At least you’re away from the customers. I can, “pretend”, like I’m cooking chicken in the back but dick around for ten minutes, which actually rarely happens. You learn to smile and accept this shit. Made him his sandwich, didn’t stop to ask the next customer if he needed help. Instead, went straight to the back and told Logan to take his lunch, I was taking over, box up what just came up out the fryer and we’re good.
It was just one of those days. People wonder why I get stoned before work.
I.
Am.
Robot.
Tell.
Me.
What.
Is.
Next.
I’m versatile.
Put me in any situation and I come victorious.
Even on the bad days.
So when I go the hardcore bitch mode of my assistant manager on Wednesday after my eleventh hour there. I got irate.
I know she does a job for two.
Her boss/my boss sucks ass.
But fuck....I’m part time.
If you want to bitch and yell about the shit that the full timers didn’t do…bitch to them.
DON’T MAKE ME DO THEIR FUCKING SHIT THE LAST HOUR I’M THERE!
I’ve been working for this slave camp for three and a half years.
I lost my insurance last year due to me being stupid and the store manager catching on. Which is actually a big blessing. I haven’t missed a day in a year.
But I’ve been there for every shift.
Sleep, no sleep?
Fuck it.
Show up for work.
The computer takes over on schedule and now I don’t qualify for our good insurance.
I have to take the government stuff?
OK.
I’m a democrat.
Lifelong.
BUT FUCK YOU OBAMA!
Don’t tell me what to do.
I’ll go another year without health insurance.
I want my good Blue Cross Blue Shield Back.
Make my job give me the hours back for insurance.
People close to me say I need to see a therapist.
After A.A. and an almost check in at rehab.
Maybe I do need anti-depressants.
This is a rant with no one I know reading this.
Its liberating.
I welcome ProseBox into my life.
