Not the best omen

Posted on August 3, 2020 by A Dreamer

But it does track with being a Monday. Got up, put in Starbucks mobile order*, go to the shop and… It’s dark, locked, and not opening until 8AM. This change happened sometime since Friday and I didn’t even notice the … Continue reading →

Happy…day?

Posted on July 3, 2020 by A Dreamer

Friday? Saturday? Tuesday? Who knows anymore, but I do know I have today off, so it’s all good. Honestly, I’ve had to double check my phone for the day for the past week, so it’s consistent. And again, picking up … Continue reading →
