Friday! Payday, also, which is always nice. After today I will only get 2 (count 'em) more full time pay deposits into my bank. Some might find the idea of having their income halved rather daunting. Not me. While I don't want you to think I'm an old hand at this, I do have experience. Think of it as my 'early pandemic, essential associate hours during a lockdown' trial run from last year when I voluntarily cut my hours down to 25 per week. Back then I had a brief 'oh, shit' moment until I realized with my finances I had nothing to worry about as long as I cut back on those $40 bottles of wine (just kidding).
Yesterday was slow at work. Really. One of my fellow Specialists suggested it was the time of year, which might be the case. I'm not really concerned. In a few weeks, my sales goals are going to change, not that I have ever felt pressured or desperate.
The dogs were down playing around with Lily's 6 foot squeaky snake and now she has a bit of a booboo paw, or to be more specific since her anatomy is somewhat different to that of a human, a booboo wrist.
The only thing I like about my free SiriusXM subscription is that I get to hear more new alternative music. These guys are great. Three brothers. AJR. Their lyrics are more than a little OK.
At least 7 conservative radio hosts and anti-vaxxers have died from something.
They like living dangerously up in Idaho. The state has approved rationing of health care because of all the Covid patients in the hospitals, and what do they do? They put someone who spews misinformation about the disease in charge. He thinks it's fake. What a shame he's not a radio host.
There's supposed to be some sort of assemblage of protestors in Washington tomorrow, losers upset that people involved in the January 6 coup attempt have been arrested. However, to assemble, they need bodies, something organizers are concerned about. Right Wing groups are telling their members not to go... they're worried about getting arrested, and photographed, and... well, doing anything incriminating. The Orange Anus is going to be far, far away and, in fact, has rarely mentioned this gathering of Republicans, out of fear, I don't doubt. His future does not look bright.
