The Ice Cream Cake

Another overnight low in the upper 50s (F).  Nice.  We were supposed to have a 0% chance of rain today, that has changed.  We're now up to a 25% chance of rain, with a 0% likelihood of having rain tomorrow.  the way things change.  I don't doubt that one of the pre-requisites of weather forecasters is that their predictions need to be more flexible than a double-jointed contortionist's acrobatics.  If these overnight lows continue, I'm going to have to get the red blankey out of storage.

Yesterday started off fine, but then became almost chaotic.  My morning workouts have changed.  I'm still doing strength training, though I rarely get my heart rate up to 120 BPM, but we added mobility exercises.  They work well.  That part of the day went super fine.

Then things sort of jumped the rails.  I've been thinking for some time about signing up for Ad-Sense and decided that yesterday was the day things were going to happen.  This is not an easy process.  You can't simply click a button or check a box.  Code needs to be copied and pasted.  I am not a coder.  I survived one programming course around 30 years ago, which was of no use.  We shall see, won't we.

After that experience, I went to work.  Wrong.  For the first time in almost 2 years, I wasn't scheduled to work on Monday, but, like most humans, I run on routines.  So, I punched in, checked out my numbers, insured vacation time was being applied, and punched out.  On the way home, I picked up an ice cream cake.  After Howie and I each had a slice, he looked at me and said, "you know, I think it's time for a nap."  That dog is so smart.

As expected, Hakeem Jeffries put out a statement saying that he and Kushner's meeting had to do with affordability.  Here's a message to Hakeem.  "No one believes you."  I watched the video.  Hakeem is not a very sophisticated liar.  Kushner is now, and has always been as corrupt as his father-in-law, so is his wife, Ivanka Banka.   Like everyone of Orangie's spawn, she didn't fall too far from the tree.

And the Iranian government has put a price on Barron's head.  The first thought that went through my head when I saw that was, "is this some so tightly veiled threat from the Kremlin?"  One of the best ways there is to insure their tool Orangie performs, is to threaten the life of one of his spawn.  Even the one who has some sort of weird crush on the Tate brothers has value to the Orange Anus.  That may seem harsh, but let's be honest, the only thing this loser president loves more than himself is money in the bank, and Barron's been making some truly great trades here lately.

Spiderman

Well, we have 61 (F) and light rain here in Central PA.  According to the forecast, we were only supposed to have a 3% chance of rain today.  That means we should have 42.5 minutes of rain... and it's happening now.  The sun is supposed to come out later this afternoon, and our high temp is supposed to be in the mid to upper 70s (F).  Tomorrow is predicted to be even nicer.  That's a good thing because I don't have to work and having decent weather on a day off is always nice.

And I did work yesterday.  All day.  And I didn't have to.  I should have checked my schedule because for the first time in a long time my start time was changed.  Normally, I'm punching in at 1000, however yesterday I was supposed to punch in at 1200. That unpredictable change caught me by surprise and, being a creature of habit, I punched in 2 hours early.  One of my fellow associates suggested that I punch out and go home for all of 30 minutes.  My mental urge was to ask "are you nuts?"  What I actually said was, "no, I'll take advantage of the extra 2 hours on my paycheck."

Even though I did get a measure, retail was slow.  I missed my sales goal for the week, but I sort of semi-crushed my measure goal by getting 3.  I did spend about 20 minutes with a senior Asian woman, helping her with mini-blinds.  Even though her English was only slightly better than my Chinese, I will tell you those 20 minutes were simply delightful.  Patience is a wonderful thing.

This past weekend Jake Lang, a Nazi Christo-fascist took his hatred to Minneapolis and got punched in the face by Karma.   Actually, that's incorrect.  Karma was involved, but it was Spiderman who punched him in the face.  Literally.  

Being perfectly honest, when I saw the first vide of this confrontation my heart leapt with joy!  Jake Lang, one of the January 6 rioters pardoned by the Orange Anus, getting beaten down by Spiderman was definitely not on my bingo card.

There's a lot of shit being kicked up about the meetings between Hakeem Jeffries and Orangie's son-in-law (the family relationship does need to be highlighted here).  Kushner might be crooked as hell, but he's not stupid.  I don't doubt that he, as well as a number of others in the administration, see the writing on the wall.  Trying to arrange a deal where he and the rest of Orangie's spawn can slink away with as much of their ill-gotten gains as possible might be their only choice.  Perhaps they're offering a resignation rather than an impeachment.  Jeffries has a problem, though.  Most Americans don't want to use namby-pamby, 1950s inter-party diplomacy to deal with this Administration.  The loser in the White House has done irreparable damage to this country.  Restitution needs to be made for his crimes against humanity.  Jeffries is not the strong arm people want as Speaker of the House.  I don't think he understands that right now Americans want Spiderman.  So these conversations he's having with Kushner are probably a simple waste of breath.
