Hot or Not?

 I'm taking my temp as I type with the digital thermometer given to me as a Christmas Present by the largest home improvement retailer in the world.  In a second, we will all see the results.

So, am I Hot... or Not?

My normal temp is around 96.5 (F).  Oh, and I've drinking coffee, hot not iced.  

I got a 2nd holiday basket from work yesterday.  Not because I'm special, rather they made more than enough.  Not that I wanted the full basket, really, all I was after was the succulent.  Sometimes it's really all about the succulents, if you know what I mean.

Treat him right and he will grow

And yesterday was odd at work with many customers in the morning who really didn't buy much of anything, but who helped waste time... until around 3 in the afternoon, when for some reason everyone decided to go home.

I also ordered two pair of jogging shorts in bright colors, each having a different leg length: one is 5 inches, the other 3 inches.  I will have to see if there's a difference when I run.  As far as I know, the only real plus side for the shorter length is that I get to show more leg.

And what about that group of 11 Republican senators who plan on protesting the election?  Mittens Romney says their actions are egregious.  Everyone is a wannabe future two bit presidential candidate wanting to hook up with the Idiot Jerk's base.  Ted Cruz?  That man is so desperate to be an idiot in chief I can smell his stench way up here in Pennsylvania.  Someone should tell that loser his name was scratched off that dance card a long time ago.  He is not now, nor will he ever be hot.

  

Growers

Can you believe it's Sunday already?  I can.  I work today.  Don't get too close, my excitement is contagious.
Yesterday was a beautiful day.  I accomplished much.  Three loads of laundry.  Groceries were purchased. A trip to Stauffer's of Kissel Hill for 2 new succulents.

They may look small, but you gotta believe me... these guys are growers.

I reorganized my silverware drawer... I have twenty-three forks... I am never going to need that many forks.  The same is true with spoons and knifes.  I have 18 steak knives.  There's no way I'm going to eat that much steak.

I got in a 10 mile ride at place called Lipon Lake in Czech Republic.  It was listed as a 26 mile flat ride...  Well, it is flat... after the 2 mile hill, the one which goes up to an 18% grade, that you reach 4 miles into the ride.

Oh, and then I baked a Swiss cheese, spinach, and mushroom quiche for dinner.

The crust looks a little rough because I used mostly whole wheat flour and olive oil, and I didn't want to spend a lot of time daintifying it.  I knew it wasn't going to grow fat and puffy.  It was only meant to be a shell.  Oh, and I didn't use heavy cream,  Whole milk does the same thing.

Oh, and I saw where NOAA has criticized some meteorologists for illustrating how bad the Idiot Jerk's use of a Sharpie was in his fake weather prediction.  Now we know someone in charge there has their tongue up his ass.

My Succulent is Blooming

How do I know?  Well, let me tell you, if you don't know when your succulent blooms there's a problem...  because little things shoot out the end, little flowers, you know?  This is how they make little succulents.

To be honest, some people my think me special because I have more than one succulent, in fact I have a lot... and an orchid which just started to bloom, as well.  One thing most people don't know about succulents is that they are poisonous to dogs, so if you have one, keep your dog away from it.
And for those who don't know "God's Own Country" won some top awards at the British Independent Film Awards ceremony. Congrats to all the winners for working on such a great film!
Of course in the US those wins set all Social Conservative's teeth on edge, just like the marriage equality bill in Australia.  This is not the world they want.  This is why Roy Moore is their Prince, their Storybook Hero; he represents an America where Biblical Law rules.  You can bet many of them are going to be tuned into the election results this evening without even understanding the outcome means nothing.  You see millions of Americans, a vast majority, have already passed judgement on Roy Moore in much the same way he passed judgement in his years as a judge, by what they deem to be fair and decent and right.  If Roy Moore wins, then the Social Conservatives lose in much the same way they lost when Joel Osteen demonstrated his total lack of compassion, of concern for Humanity when Hurricane Harvey devastated Houston, and in much the same way they lose when ever they lay their hands upon the Idiot Jerk in the White House.  And, of course, they also lose if he fails to win Jeff Session's seat in the Senate.
Do they care?  Hell No!  They are not concerned with Caring Compassion, with Humanity; all they want is total control, the ability to pass judgement freely, and to take away your human rights.  Do they understand?  Hell No!  Will they lose?  Hell Yes!
