For a Good Time

 So, here it is January 3 and forecasters are calling for some snow this afternoon, about an inch.  I don't mind.  Unless it's a wet snow, that will blow away in the slightest of breezes.  Sunday in to Monday, however, we might get as much as 4 inches.  If we get that much I'll probably take the day off at work.  I'm smart enough to realize that as I get older, my reflexes are slowing down.  I'd rather be safe and warm at home than stuck in a ditch alongside the road.  As for the snow?  That'll be nice.  Free cardio, but barely.  You need a good 8 or 9 inches of snow to really get the old ticker going as you shovel.

Yesterday was an odd day at work.  Customers streamed by the flooring desk regularly.  Sales, however, were scant.  I did manage to get a backsplash measure, and sold some flooring to customer.  That should keep management happy.  

The neighbors had another fight last evening.  This past summer she had complained to me how when he yells he can be "so hurtful."  You can call me cold if you like, but I had a problem with that.  Since I'd already heard them arguing loudly, I knew she could be just as hurtful as he was, so her playing the victim just wasn't going to work.  At some point, I don't doubt that they will move.  I think they will find that easier than doing any of the work the house needs done.

I would rather poke my eyes out than watch one of the far right news services, but last evening Matt Gaetz, who has his own show on OAN, premiered his new face.

I suppose he's trying to make himself more desirable to prepubescent girls, or maybe he's trying to make himself look like the 14 year-old boy he never was, since older pictures of him show he was on the homely side.

This afternoon the House of Representatives will be voting for their next leader.  Will Mike Johnson, the phony Christian who bows to the Orange Anus be re-elected?  Probably, but not on the first vote, maybe not on the second either.  Orangey needs a Speaker of the House in order to be certified, though most of us already know he is certifiable.  

Isn't it interesting that a growing number of Cultist are beginning to complain about Orangey?  No matter how often they were stupid and gullible to believe the Orange Anus, they did anyway.  Their Find Out stage, while it will be bad for all of us, is going to be horrific for them.  They will be wounded terribly bad, and what they deserve more than anything else is for us to rub salt into that wound, and we should try to have a good time while doing so.

Donut Day

We're starting off Wednesday on the right foot because outside we have a nice soaker going on.  The weather map has an extensive blob of green slowly moving over the entire state.  There is the possibility of thunderstorms as well.  Getting soaking rains twice in one week is good for everything.

The results from my CAT scan should be available for me to read tomorrow.  The VA requests 36 hours for the doctor to view them and write his report.   Interestingly enough, the VA has multiple locations where they can do the imaging, and they are not in the same building.  Yesterday I was walked to the building where they do Physical Therapy and Rehab.  For those who've never seen the donut, here's the one I took my 2 minute ride through.  I ;think it looks almost Scifi Fab.

And, of course, yesterday the Orange Anus had his fingerprints taken for the 2nd time as charges were filed against him.  Cameras were not allowed in the courtroom, however from all the reports that I've seen he sat quietly.  Amusingly, today is actually his birthday, so he was lucky enough to get his present a day early.  

As might be expected, Fox News photographed the fake Melania outside the courthouse because...well, it's Fox New, which explains so very much.

One thing that did have me wondering was where were those 50,000 supporters, demonstrators, and protestors.  So many added hours were put on the Atlanta police department payroll to cover them.  In fact, estimates are that only about 500 people showed up, including one man wearing a pig head mask and that the atmosphere was circus-like.  Those numbers must have been terribly disheartening for the Orange Anus after he called for his cult members to rally.  This doesn't mean that about 2/3 of the Republican party have abandoned him, they haven't.  They won't.  That will never happen.  This is how a political party dies.
