Selfie #4

 It looks like there is another nice day in store for Central PA with temps in the upper 70s and clear sunny skies, and of course I do have to work today.  I am off tomorrow and the forecast is for overcast skies and rain.  In fact, the next few days rain is expected daily.  I suppose this has something to do with that rainy weather pattern that's going to be soaking the southeast moving north as it moves out over the Atlantic Ocean.

And I did work yesterday.  It was slow.  I did, however, get a measure.  An older woman's middle-aged son brought her in for a measure.  They picked out an nice middle of the road carpet for the master bedroom, and a cheap carpet of the rest of the bedrooms.  Now, when I say cheap, I mean cheap; $9.90 a square yard.  In fact, this carpet was so cheap we don't install it.  This led to a dilemma, with him telling her that it taken her so long to pick out the carpet.  When he went to pick out another carpet that was of similar color, she turned to me and said, "he can be suck a prick."  My personal opinion is that he's a bit frothy in the brain.

Even though I did work yesterday, it was a short day.  Usually I work 7.5 hours, but yesterday I was only scheduled for 6.  That hour and a half difference is so nice, I might have to change my availability, at lest for the summer.

I'm playing a French game right now, Clair Obscur; Expedition 33 and last night one of the main characters died.  I have never played a game in which this has happened, companions have died, but never one of the main characters.  Complicating things even more, a new character was introduced, an individual who was part of the first expedition, Expedition 0, 67 years earlier, and this character hasn't aged.  You also find out that there are other members of that first expedition alive, some who will let everyone else die in order to remain young.  This may go down as one of my all time favorite games!

And, from time to time I attempt to take a selfie with Howie.  Here's selfie #4.

So, I see the Orange Anus caved on the tariffs again.  Main stream media isn't putting it that way, though, they're saying that there appears to be a mutual agreement between the China and the United States.  Did anyone of them say that on the first day, the Chinese walked out after about 15 minutes?  I don't think so.  Well, they did.  I heard that they went into the talks and asked for 2 things:  respect, and a pause in the tariffs while negotiations were in progress and Orangie's team said no.  So they walked.  Realizing that this was going to make Bessent and his team look like the biggest douchebags in history, yesterday Scottie and his team caved.  The Chinese are respected and the tariffs are paused for another 90 day.  One really needs to check to see which Republicans snapped up stocks on Friday, because now Wall Street is doing firecrackers!
