Well…I have been marveling over all of the tough guy repubs who are shaking in fear with the worst threat to the US in the history of the world…in case you didn’t catch it, that was sarcasm…and I sit here and wonder what these guys are smoking or drinking, or are they just the biggest bunch of chickens that have ever lived in this country? The latest is the state hopper candidate from fear (R) Scott Brown who came out today and said that Islamic terrorism is the greatest threat the US has ever faced and that Obama is not doing enough about it…let me get this straight, ISIS is a greater threat than Nazi Germany? ISIS is a greater threat than the Japanese empire? ISIS is a greater threat than the Soviet Union in the cold war with it’s 40,000 nuclear warheads? It has gotten almost comical when another of these supposedly tougher than Democrats repubs just about craps his pants and screams the sky is falling whenever a new terror organization kills a few people….but, you know this is their playbook to win elections…fear, fear, and more fear…it’s all they have left…geez…
September 23rd
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I still feel a little crappy from the bug but maybe there are glimpses of being better…I have a sore throat this morning, though, and that is normally not a good sign…slept really crappy again but that’s not news anymore so I won’t talk about it….it looks like the next week is going to have some of the best weather all year so I need to take advantage of it…they are replacing the roof here today so that will be a big mess and I hope I’ve parked my car far enough away to not get all that crap on it….not much to do today…I do have sports stuff to talk about but I needed to do the Perry one yesterday since it just wrote itself and we all need to continue to expose the idiocy that is the repubs these days…more later…
Rick Perry is still an idiot…
Well…how many times do I have to say “Rick Perry is still an idiot”? It seems that every day that idiot comes out with a new bit of stupidity the tops the last one…the latest was from a few days ago where he basically said that Joan Rivers would still be alive if New York had the same draconion abortion restrictions they have in Texas…you know, where all of the clinics there have to be mini hospitals with a certain width hallways, bigger doors, and other things that have nothing to do with the services being performed…since when does a wider hallway have anything to do with a woman’s health? The only thing these restrictions do is put the clinics out of business since they are not there to make huge profits and can’t afford to rebuild their buildings. Using this logic, whey haven’t they put these same restrictions on oral surgery clinics? Statistics show that oral surgery is more dangerous than getting an abortion as is knee surgery and every other outpatient surgery. The final fact is that the clinic where Joan Rivers was treated met all of the Texas requirements….but she died anyway…what a moron…geez…
September 22nd
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I felt a little crappy all day and I am having problems shedding this darn bug I’ve had for a couple of weeks now…woke up after a fitful night of sleep coughing and with my head plugged up but it seems to be better now…It is nice to have all of the wedding stuff done except taking my son to the airport this aft…I think I’ll need to take the aft off but I do need to wash the car since it got muddy going over for the after wedding brunch yesterday…and I do need to get more consistent here and that is going to be the goal for the next week..to actually make some sense and have some of these matter…and get caught up since I find myself behind again…just need to find some topics..oh, I think I’ll do one on sports since there is some stuff going on that I want to comment on…Man U I’m talking about you…more later…
September 21st
Well…it was a nice day yesterday with the wedding coming off nicely and beating the rain that came just as the ceremony was ending…got the photos and everything done and the reception was fun but way too loud for me so I spent a lot of time on the porch…slept pretty crappy so I feel a little tired this morning…just vegging right now watching the race and waiting for Man U to start…need to get a bike ride in before I head over for the brunch this morning…I think I’ll make today a relaxing day and just watch the Lions lose along with the race….other than that, I need to have coffee an head back tot he couch…I will be back for another one today since I have been lazy the past two…more later…
September 20th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I’m not sure who won at pool since my daughter’s husband came out to play with us and it was a kind of round robin thing….and had a nice dinner out at the mex place near me and then a nice night of relaxing….but, today is the big wedding day so there won’t be much rest…should be fun, though, and I am looking forward to it…slept pretty crappy last night and that is normal and my allergies are just terrible this morning….it looks like it may rain today so it will be interesting to see how the picture are handled…other than that, not much to do today…have an errand to run this morning and have to touch the suit up with my iron to get some wrinkles out…more later…
September 19th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday…had some fun at the rehearsal and the dinner and it was good to see the kids…and I wasn’t good last night so I feel it a little today…but, I think coffee will take care of that…slept like crap again but that is pretty normal…I did lose an earplug during the night and that just felt weird and may be part of why I didn’t sleep too well…not much to do today…it looks like I have time for pool so that will be okay and my daughter’s husband is coming to hang out with us while she gets her nails done and then it’s out to dinner for her birthday….and then an easy night back here….more later…
Getting ready to head out…
Well…just sitting here and remembered I didn’t do another one today so I thought I’d get this one done before I take off in a while so I won’t have to think about it…with the wedding thing going on over the next few days…it seems like everyone is pretty crabby and I’m not sure why…I guess I’ll see in a while when I go out to the rehearsal…haven’t heard from anyone but my daughter and I’m not really surprised about that…but I am a little surprised that no one is going to be there for her birthday tomorrow….not sure what is going on there…but, things usually work out and we’ll see after the dinner tonight…that’s about it…need to sunscreen up and get ready for a drive…no more later….
September 18th
Well…as you can see from the last post, it was an okay day yesterday and i did get a few things done…slept kind of okay but had a weird dream that had a 68 Torino and lots of snow in it…yeah, I don’t know where that come from either….have been good for the past 4 days and I feel okay this morning…the festivities for the wedding start today so I need to get some stuff done this morning to be ready for it…need a grocery run and then the normal stuff but that is about it…then just wait to see when stuff gets going….more later…
Accomplishments…
Well…as you know, my life has become pretty small over the past couple of years with nothing really to show for it…so, when I get any little thing done it feels like an accomplishment…and I did get a few things done today…got the car washed and waxed and got the glass cleaned for the family stuff that will be going on over the next few days…and I even got some stuff done in here…the microwave is no longer unrecognizable and I got the leaning tower of papers out…did some vacuuming, too but I have lots more to do…not sure if I’ll do it or not…after all, when I was working, this was quitting time…and that sounds like a good idea….I think I will… more later…
