Shut Up, We're in Charge

Well, here it is, Friday already.  Seems like just yesterday it was Tuesday and I was starting my mini-midweek break.  I'd call it a vacation, or possibly a staycation because I wasn't working and didn't go anywhere, but I did do things.  Like hang a door between the kitchen and the back porch.  When I picked it up at the store, there was a white tail deer walking through the parking lot.  I'd have taken a pic but my phone was in my pocket.

I'm going to cancel my subscription to Adobe since I don't use it.  Originally the idea had been to use it to create the PDF files needed to publish paperbacks through Barnes & Noble, but since I'm moving into audiobooks the odds of that happening are slim.  And, speaking of audiobooks, The Body Under Ice is complete.  It's in the Review stage and unless problems are discovered should be available to purchase in 20 - 30 days.  It will be available on a number of markets, including Spotify.  It will be, however, on Audible because that platform require you sign a 7 year exclusivity contract.  They also take a bigger chunk of your royalties, so audible is out.

So, I'm adding bands into my workout routine.  Any guesses on how long it will take me to look like this?

Okay, so I saw this humorous article in The Hill about Senate Republicans and how they're worried that the Republicans in the House are going to screw everything up.  You see, those radical conservatives in the House are furious about the debt ceiling deal.  They saw their chances of gauging great holes in the Biden administration, and in Medicare and Social Security go up in smoke.  Remember, these the insurrectionists who all desperately want to shriek "Shut UP!  We're in Charge!" loudly into your ears.  Rather than take their defeat and move on, they're planning on retaliating, just like the Orange Anus.  They are writing smaller, sharper bits of legislation which they hope will hobble the economy to such a degree the Biden administration looks bad.  The Senate Republicans are smart enough to know this will lose the votes, however for those Crazies in the House bleeding away Republican voters is far less important than shrieking "Shut UP!  We're in Charge!"
