Bluntness

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

What we have so far

 Monday.  According to calendars, this is the first day of the week.  An accurate description of yesterday was slow.  After an initial rush in the morning, most people listened to the forecasters and stayed home... not all though.  Not all though, and in a way I was one, you see I stopped off a Giant on my way home from work and picked up an Italian sub and a bottle of red wine.  The girl at the counter complained, "they sent everybody home but me."  When I told her she was essential, she glared at me.  Nice.

So, here we are on Monday morning.  I looked at Accuweather and it looks to me as if most of this storm is slowly spinning off the Jersey coast.  They're still predicting around 8 to 10 more inches.  Just to be on the safe side, I'm going to take a personal day.  Wouldn't it be a real shitter if this was another bust of a snow storm after the way this thing has been hyped?  We will just have to wait and see.

This is what it looks like from my bedroom window.


I was talking to my friend Betsy last evening, and both got a kick out of the Idiot Jerk's defense team quitting.  Evidently he wanted them to lie about election fraud.  I find it sad that over 72 million Republicans believe his lies.  Personally, I don't think reality will ever enter their world.  They are too lost in the rapture and wonderment of themselves they will never escape that fog.  Let's be honest, they've been lying about elections for decades.  They will never understand their Conservative beliefs only play well to a minority crowd, and since minority political parties rarely win, they have have to cheat and lie.  The only time there will ever be an election without fraud is when they win.  They are never going to change.

    1. Right now we're not getting any precipitation, however it looks like AM is sending some of the white stuff our way.

  3. I think you're right to take a personal day. The number of times I tried to get into work on a snowy day and got stuck in traffic for about 3 hours and then had to turn around .... yuck!

    1. A number of my neighbors shoveled themselves out during a slow spell, now the 2nd half of the storm has hit and you can't even tell where they shoveled.

    We got some snow too. And it's started to snow outside as I typed this.

  5. Very smart not going to work. Yesterday was brutal in Chi. Today I almost got stuck in my driveway. I have a small car, so more than five inches is way too much for me to drive over.
    I cackled when I read Cheeto's 'legal team' left. He got two lawyers used to trash to represent him. Very telling.

    XOXO

    1. Believe me, I have no problem taking off work. And the whole Republican Party can't stop shooting itself in the head, and the back, and the foot.
