Bluntness

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

Burner Phones

Yesterday was different, somehow oddly out of sync.  I took a friend for an out patient procedure in the morning which was supposed to take about 3 hours... well, I was called after and hour and told the procedure was complete.  I budgeted for 3 and used 1.5.  I expected to have to sign for my Xbox Series X when it arrived... not the case.  I received a text telling me my new, expensive console was sitting on my front porch.  Oh, and speaking of the Xbox Series X:  Lily found the console fascinating, even though she can't play... no fingers.


And nutritionally speaking, yesterday was also a bust.  I ended up eating taquitos and hot dogs.  So much for my street cred on being a healthy eater. Well, it happens to the best of us now and then.

My Xbox Series S has been reset and is ready to go to it's new owner.  That will happen Sunday.  

I didn't use the treadmill at all.  I told myself I was taking a rest day.  I then felt slightly guilty because I know how much it helps.  I can feel a bike ride coming up soon.

A headline flashed on my email last evening from the Dallas Morning News.  Evidently the good people of Texas do now want their politicians (read Republican) deciding what books should be in their school libraries.   This is what happens when you have a small, minority group in power that doesn't give a shit about the majority.  Trying to appeal to the 33% who love you while ignoring the other 67% of the voters is going to get you into deep trouble.

And then there was this about the use of burner phones on January 6.  No wonder Loser #45's team is desperately trying to keep the communications logs for that infamous day cloaked in Executive Privilege.  Some how I doubt very much if Eric was calling out to a rioter asking him to pick up a pizza (no mushrooms) for the coup party that evening.  

Finally, I have to mention Sean Parnell, the Trump backed candidate who wanted to take over Pat Toomey's seat.  My, his campaign ended with a terrible thud after custody of his two children was handed over to his wife.  You see, Sean has a problem with verbal and physical abuse, two of the many things Republicans will overlook in a marriage.  Remember, they're the patriarchal party.  Except, this sort of shit doesn't play well with voters.  So, Sean is gone.  Tough shit.

  1. Texas proves even more what a bunch of dumb stupid shits they are. Stop all they want, if people want to read a certain book, there is always a way to get it. Of all of todays issues, this is what they worry about????? Fuck them.

    So glad Sean went up in flames.

    And taquitos! One of my favorites. There are worst thing to eat.

    1. Remember, Conservatives are desperate to control every aspect of your life, even the things you read.

      Taquitos are filled with sodium and fat which is what makes them so delectable.

    1. The real problem is that I can picture Eric the stupid doing something like that.

  3. Oh, they thought they were being so sly, with the burner phones and all... it was a coup. Even if the repugs are trying to make it seem like it was a tourist visit. Ugh.
    And I have to get into the XBox thing. The Wyphe's nephews adore theirs and I have only tried it once. I got dizzy and the zombies ate me.

    XOXO

    1. One of the things I've read is that the January 6 commission knows far more than they're revealing.

      And now you know, avoid games with zombies.

  4. Gosh they left your Xbox on your front porch! I'd say you were lucky there, thank goodness!

    1. Yeah, good thing I was home because the dogs started barking (they love UPS drivers) and I saw him walking away from my front porch.

  5. I haven't been using my Xbox enough to justify buying the new one. My twins want one though.

  6. Taquitoes and hot dogs? Sounds good to me!

    I just saw the good news about the Arbery trial verdict. Finally, a correct verdict.
