The Cold, the Chili, and the Midterms.

The temp on my inside thermostat is 76 (F), outside the temp is 71 (F), go figure.  One forecast for this afternoon has our temp in the low 80s (F), while another has our high in mid 70s (F).  That's another go figure.  Next Wednesday, if the forecasters happen to be correct, our afternoon high will be 58 (F).  That'll be a chilly day.

And I did take off yesterday because of "the cold."  The plan was to sleep away the afternoon.  Well, that sort of happened.  I have a dog who thinks that whenever I'm home, it's play time.  You have no idea how many times we played fetch with his pink pig.  I am surprised that my sides are sore from coughing, or maybe they're sore from sneezing.  Anyway, the Sudafed is good at keeping my passage clear and the coughing/sneezing to a minimum.  After I finish this, I'm going to take one and then take a nap.

I'm scheduled to have lunch today with one of my editors.  Wish me luck.

My neighbors were arguing loudly about their car this morning.  They had 2, but 1 went into the shop about a month ago, so for her to have a car she needs to drive him almost an hour to work, and then pick him up when his shift is done.   Neither is happy about this.  Making the situation worse, occasionally someone will park a small, Chevy in front of their house.  She hates  this.  I don't think she understands that she doesn't own the street.  Several times she's parked so close to the Chevy it looked like their bumpers were touching, she's going to be a bitch about this.

And I made chili with vegetables from my garden!   Tasty!!

I understand Orangie's mad at the South Koreans because they're refusing to send troop to help us in Middle East.  This happens when you shit on allies.  Honestly, we always knew he wasn't the brightest bulb in the box, but saying he is dim doesn't quite drive home the point.  He is politically inept. 

So, a judge said the administration needs to provide him with a notice in writing at least 30 days before Orangie starts demolishing the Kennedy Center.  The problem with that is our loser in Chief is just going to ignore that, because that's what he always does.

Finally, I have to chuckle every time I hear Mikey Johnson, or someone else of his ilk, saying that if the Democrats get in power Impeachment will be the word of the day for the next 2 years.  He simply doesn't understand that at this point in time, 3/4 of the American people want more than impeachments.

The Outer Worlds 2

 We have warm temps outside.  Currently our thermometer is sitting at around 48 (F).  We also have rain.  It's been raining all night.  Forecasters had been calling for an inch of more of rain and I do think they were right.  Looking at the weather map of Central PA, there is still a lot of green swirling around overhead.  Temps are expected to drop much for the next few days.  That's nice.

So yesterday was busy, considering it was a Wednesday and here of late Wednesdays have been rather meh.  I spent most of the morning working on my gaming PC, the one IT fixed.  Well, they fixed it alright.  They have a very conservative idea of just what malware is that's not even close to what I worry about.  Here's an example: Google Play Store.  They consider this malware because you might download an app which might affect your computer.  Well, hell.  They deleted so many things I consider normal, and so I spent a good hour and a half changing the rules in my Panda Security to get things back to normal.  Will they get a renewal in a year? Nope.

My workout yesterday went well.  After my birthday we're going to change up some of the exercises and increase the weight I use in others.  Damn, I may actually have to go out and buy some heavier dumbbells.

And last night I spent some time playing Outer Worlds 2.  It's a new RPG from Oblivion.  I like it.  I am dying a lot, but that's normal in the beginning of a game.  Of course, even though I had to buy the game, it has an anti-capitalism message.  There's also sarcastic humor, as well as the old, reliable dumb humor.  I have no problem laughing as I'm killing aliens.  This is an age restricted video (blood and gore) so you will need to click on the link to go to YouTube to watch it.

The Orange Anus is in South Korea serving up Tacos to anyone who wants one, and in return he's getting nothing.  Well, that's not quite correct.  The Prime Minister of South Korea did give him a toy crown.  The idiot could hardly take his eyes off of it.  World Leaders know how Orangie is so starstruck whenever he's in their presence, especially if they happen to be dictators, then he practically drools.

He just had a meeting with Xi and only dropped 10% off their tariffs.  It would have been more but they didn't give him a crown, just another framework for a trade deal.  If you see any of the clips, you'll notice that while Orangie is grinning like a drunken baboon, all Xi does is smugly give him a rather condescending smile.  Xi knows an idiot when he sees one.

Finally, there were lots of layoffs yesterday because billionaires are only in it for themselves.  They simply don't care.  They never will.  They are a plague on all of our houses.
