I love comedy

Work is over for this week. Got in about 39 1/2 hours, so I'm happy, as I'm not allowed to go over 40 as a temp for reasons I'm not quite sure of yet.

It's Wal-Mart, but it's still an income, and I really respect the people who've made themselves a place at this store. I'm part of a remodel crew, and if you don't know what a remodel is, it's like a turnaround. If you don't know what a turnaround is, let me tell you.

And remember, you're part of a friendly group of crocheters here at Knitting-and-Crochet (https://www.deviantart.com/knitting-and-crochet) who would love to help answer your pattern questions!

i didn’t fall in love with you until your skin was already grey and i had to tell you what the weather was like since you couldn’t leave your bed. i didn’t mind long nights in the hospital because making you laugh brought a warmth to my cheeks that burnt hotter than a forest fire, you never laughed at me for blushing i snuck you in alcohol and forbidden foods and pushed you around in that rusted wheel chair, and all the nurses looked at us with miserable eyes that said more than the doctors would ever tell me. naively i thought it was good news when you said they were sending you home; but when i saw you strewn across
