Blame it on Biden

Our temps climbed into the mid 40s (F) yesterday.  The warming trend will continue for another day, with temps tomorrow predicted to crack open the middle 50s (F).  55 (F) is the projected high.  I have not problem with that.  Not having to pay for heating my house is nice.  Temps will drop down on Saturday, but then they begin to rebound on Sunday.

The new queen sized sheets I bought at BJs are on the bed and they're a bit baggy, but they'll do.  

Yesterday was my first full workout with the new piece of equipment.  Honestly, I should have done a trial run.  While most of the exercises went well, I'm too big for two of them to be done they way that they should be done, so I had to make some adjustments.  I need to sit facing the back of the machine for the lat pulldown, and for the leg raise, I need to be sitting on a small cushion for the leg raise.  There are always ways to make it work, which is why I now know I should have played around with different exercises before my first workout.

Otherwise, yesterday was fairly normal.  

So, my work schedule is out for the first week in January and I'm down to 13 and a half hours.  I'll probably wait and see how this paycheck looks before deciding on whether or not to start using up my vacation time in bits and pieces.  Hours always get cut this time of year, but because of my tenure I'm usually the last to get cut, so this is not looking good for the other part-timers.

Rather than pay any attention to Orangie's speech last night, I had a couple of glasses of wine and watched Alex Strangelove on Netflix.  It's cute.

And Orangie did speak to the nation last night... well, most comments I've seen have said that he yelled at America.  Many think that he was hopped up on Adderall. As is always the case, he lied.  He blamed Biden for the economy.  He said affordability was a hoax.  He blamed Biden.  He said that eggs had dropped 83% in price.  He blamed Biden.

So, why does Orangie hate Biden so much?  This is an easy one.  Biden won the election in 2020 and proved to the world that Orangie is a loser.  Orangie tried to stage a coup and failed.  So, he also a failure, and in his screwed up mind, Biden's to blame for all of that.  That was the hugest blow his ego has ever had to deal with, and his ego lost it.  

Inflation numbers are out this morning and to quote Justin Wolfers, "they're unexpectedly good."  Would Orangie fudge those numbers?  You can bet your bippy he would.  Inflation did increase, just not as much as economists had been expecting.  One thing I know to be certain, we are raising our prices and this administration will never report that... and if they do, don't worry, it will be Biden's fault.
