Yesterday, after getting the cookie booth set up, I bought a rose bush and planted it on Kingston’s grave.

One day I’ll have a little rose garden from all the coddamn pets.

After making Kingston a pretty little final resting place, I set to mulching the flower bed by the walkway.

Then I started cutting shit down.

Until the bar on my chainsaw took a shit.

The front gear busted and now it is very upset.

I took that as my cue to go shower and put soft pants on for the rest of the day.

Which is what I did.

So today is going to be a burning day.

I’m gonna get rid of all that shit I cut down yesterday.

Right after I go help set up this next cookie booth.

If you need Girl Scout cookies, I know a lady.

Otherwise, you can come burn stuff.

Or leave me the fuck alone today.

See ya’ tomorrow.

More soon. ~SC
