Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

How Can This Be!!

We're supposed to have a scorcher today... at least an October scorcher.  Our afternoon high will be sitting in the mid 80s (F).  Humidity will be rising.  There were showers this morning, but none around my house.  Tomorrow is supposed to be a repeat of today except the showers will be storms as a cold front moves through the area.  Yepper, tomorrow's high will be in the mid 80s (F) and Saturday's high will be in the low 60s (F).  I might actually need to turn on my heat.

And yesterday was another big Autumn cleaning day!  There's spring cleaning and then there's fall cleaning.   With one you prepare to summerize your home, the other winterizes. And there are also Howie cleaning days, they happen much more frequently out of necessity.  Howie is a walking, barking, hair storm.  There are times when he is a shedding extravaganza, more so in the spring then at any other time of the year.  It's almost as though my house is super hirsute and in constant need of barbering.

I'm working this afternoon, and I will no longer be a specialist.  All of my schedules have been changed and I'm not listed as "aisle maintenance."  This means I no longer have any metrics and those measure I got last week will be processed by another associate.  That's fine with me.

This was a headline this morning's Washington Post and I have to admit that I'm a bit surprised.

Single handedly the Orange Anus is destroying the Republican Party.  I don't think that the Conservative movement is even slightly prepared to take a big one on the chin.  I can almost hear them now running around and shrieking, "How can this be!  How can this be!!"  Can you hear me laughing?  They truly did believe that the Orange Anus was going to give them the authoritarian government they've always had erotic dreams about.  Hhhmm... maybe I should have said wet dreams.  This would, of course, include Susan Clark who's always fantasized about being one of the boys.

And everyday things continue to get worse for the Republicans (their stupidity is quite amazing).  Take Marsha Blackburn, who has decided to sue Jack Smith because he asked for the call logs of a number of phones... but not the phone's contents.  Not knowing the difference, Marsha with the bad hair has decided to take Jack Smith to court.  This means there will have to be a Discovery phase during which Marsha will have to release the contents of her phone calls.  Marsha's running to be governor of Tennessee (the state where they just tried to execute a woman with 2 lethal injections and failed).  She thinks this will endear her to the voters.  I can already hear her running around and shrieking, "how can this be! How can this be!!"
