The New Toy

 There was no rain yesterday, at least not around here, but then the temp never got above 81 (F) and most of the storms we've been getting are heat and humidity based.  Today is supposed to be different, much more humidity and the temps are suppose to climb into the upper 80s (F).

Retail was slow, at least as far a measures were concerned.  I did have to cut carpet as well as blinds, which helps to take up time.  I did have this one tile customer who was looking to tile her shower.  
After some time, she picked a brown porcelain tile for the walls most likely because it was cheap.  For the floor, however, she wanted a mosaic and we didn't have a color or pattern that suited her, so she decided to look for that elsewhere.  When I recommended that she buy one of the wall tiles in order to coordinate the color she told me, "Oh, I don't need to do that.  When it comes to color I have a photostatic memory."  There are times when I do really need to bite my tongue.

Look!  I've got a new toy!  Now all I need to do is make sure it doesn't go flying and break something.

Of course, the Orange Anus was indicted yesterday.  Sadly, he was only digitally fingerprinted.  I would have really liked to have seen them slowly roll his fingers back and forth across an inkpad. Since I was working, I couldn't really watch the proceedings, but from the pictures and from what I've read, he didn't really draw that big of a crowd and those that did show up were in great MAGA form.  

He did give some form of statement at the airport before he left and evidently it was raining, because he was holding an umbrella.  That led to a number of pictures being posted on social media of both Nixon and Juan Peron leaving during a rain storm.  Yep, all 3 of them required umbrellas.  Now, isn't that interesting.  

Also, supposedly, in a new poll 45% of Republicans have said they wouldn't vote for Trump if he was convicted.  I'm suspecting that number is actually higher, and even though he has a sizable lead in the polls among Republicans, that number, too, is probably inflated.  They're going to give him all of the faux support they believe he should get.
