We wake up in the workshop. My brother’s sleep longer than I do, I’m always the first one awake and at work. The earlier I finish my work for the day the earlier I can get back to figuring out how to get out of here. Once I told that to Issac, my oldest brother, and he told me to stuff a Furby up my ass because it was never gonna happen.

That’s my department, furbies. Or is it furbys? Whatever, ...

With Christmas coming up we can’t help to be stressed and tired. All of the same Christmas songs are driving me insane while everyone seems to just love it. :) On top of everything while Santa was doing his morning cookie handouts I somehow got the burnt cookie of the batch.
