Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Congratulations

 Well, we got more rain.  The temp outside on this cool Thursday morning is hovering around the 59 (F) mark.  A little reminder for those who missed it, we are in summer now.  While weather forecasters are saying our temps will climb up into the 80s (F), at present there are no predictions about us hitting the sweltering 90s (F).  Of course, I don't think I need to remind any of you that we are still young in the season.  Give it a few weeks.

Since today is supposed to be drizzly, showery and overcast, there will be no yardwork today.  Instead, the time will be dedicated to fun, inside activities, like the continuing saga of painting trim.

I'm nearing the 30,000 word mark on the next book.  My guys have ordered their bikes for the early morning chase through the alleys of New York City... oh... dear... I may have given something away.

And last evening I received this email.  I'm excited!  My royalties get paid to Findaway, which takes a %,  so there's no way I'm going to break the bank on this little endeavor.  However, I suspect I will spend a little more time promoting the audiobook than I do with the ebooks.  Promotion on Kindle can be very expensive and usually the only one satisfied with the returns is Amazon.


In politics, the House of Representatives censured Adam Schiff in retaliation for his honesty regarding the Orange Anus and his attempted coup.  What sorry gang of snotty nosed brats the Republicans have become in their attempt to deify Trump.  Evidently Kev McCarthy had to bang his gavel in an attempt to quell the chorus of Shame, Shame, Shame that members of the house were chanting.

And many news organizations that there was a big cat fight between White Trash Boebert and Fascist Bimbo Green over Boebert's attempted Impeachment Grand Stand.  Evidently Green called Bobo a bitch loud enough for quite a number of people to hear and repeat.  This part is on the verge of coming apart at the seams, and watch out when it rips open completely.  What Joy!

  1. Ohhh royalties, huh?
    And I can imagine Bezos ends up with a healthy percentage of your earnings. *shakes head*

    The Repugs do everything for show. Like this 'censoring'. Kevin looks more and more pathetic every day.

    And Marge Three Names calling Bobo a bitch for 'stealing' her 'idea'? Oh, expected. Neither has class or intelligence. What were you expecting?

    XOXO

    1. The "Bitch" scene was everywhere. Evidently the Green and Bobo were asked to take their fight off of the floor.

  2. The GOP has disintegrated into Mean Girls At Lunch bull shit. It's disgusting.

  3. When it comes to that impeachment tool with the two harpies, even Kevin McCarthy said he will not support it and put it to a vote. I suspect soon nothing in the house or Senate get done because of all the damn fighting. At this point do we even have politicians doing anything?

    1. Yes, Maddie, we do have politicians, they're called Democrats, and all the in-fighting among the Republicans is making Democrats look pretty damn rosy.

    1. Believe me, it's fun! These things just pop into my head and I type them out, and... occasionally they make sense.
