Well….wih the murders at PP in Colorado the other day, the hypocrisy of the right to life movement was on full display with the comments that were made by the guys that made the fake video of PP…these idiots came out with their sympathy for the people killed when they are the cause of it but they never once condemned the actions of the criminals that continue to do this terrorism…the killer even going so far as to say that he was spurred on about the thought of “baby parts” being sold…a direct reference to what these asses did with their fake video. Even the repub candidates for president didn’t condemn the actions of this murderer…just putting out mushy condolences to the first responder that was killed since they all agree with the idea of closing PP by any method necessary. Let’s call this what it is…domestic terrorism aimed at scaring women away from getting their healthcare since they just don’t think women should have any rights to control their own bodies…the new, modern repub party…this is it folks….geez…

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so that was cool…slept okay and feel okay this morning but my damn back is still hurting and the annoyance level is rising….I did get a nice bike ride in yesterday but in full thermasuit and that looks like the ride today since it is only 22 outside….may just wait until the last F1 race is over and some soccer is done to try to go out….would like it to be at least 30….didn’t get much done yesterday and today looks like the same but I may try to do the bathroom and get some other stuff done….had to let the car warm up with all the ice this morning but it looks like we are going to get some okay weather for the next week or so…I can wait to put the snowies on for another week…not much to do today…going to just watch sports and veg out most of the day…more later….
Searching for a motive?
Well…another day and more violence directed at Planned Parenthood and the only thing that the media can say is the authorities are still “looking for a motive”….but, you don’t have to look too far to find it…with the almost constant demonizing of the organization, what the hell do they expect? When the repubs use fake “evidence” to excoriate PP at every turn, when they call everyone that works there murderers, and when it seems that the one thing that is on the repubs minds is shutting PP down and stirring up their base, what the hell do they expect? Especially from a base that is none too sane to start with, and with all of their candidates saying that they don’t have to obey laws they don’t agree with, what the hell do they expect? The sick thing here is that they will not learn anything from this, they won’t learn that stoking the anger of their followers to a fever pitch is not a good thing to do…and next week there will be another attack and more dead…all just to try to take away the control that women have over their own bodies…these people are just the most sick excuses for human beings I have ever seen….geez…
November 28th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool…again….I think that’s three in a row….slept okay last night but my back is really sore today so I am not sure about the bike ride today….will probably still try it since it never gets worse on the bike….it will be full thermasuit today since I froze my hands yesterday and it took almost an hour to thaw them out…and it really hurt so I won’t do that again….I didn’t come back here yesterday but that is the norm for pool days so I will have to do a couple today…I do need to do a sports one and there have been things happening that I need to comment on…not much to do today…a big sports day with Man U and Michigan playing at the same time and I have an errand to run….then it will be back here for a veg out….more later….
November 27th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday but I am grumpy this morning…no newspapers to go with my coffee and that just puts me out of sorts…slept okay last night but I am still sore and I need to figure out why I can’t crack my back….it was a total veg out day yesterday but today will be different with pool this aft for the second time this week…will be good to get out…the leak is back in the car and I think it is from not latching it correctly….re latched it and it stopped leaking so I hope that’s it….I really should clean today but I’m not sure I will….there are a few other things I need to get done around here so maybe I’ll just do that….not much to do today…going to try to get the bike ride in later but it is still raining and dark right now so I think I’ll just have coffee and wait a while…more later…
Happy Thanksgiving….
Well…another day of not having any ideas leads me to this…just describing what happened today….I did make a turkey and all the rest of the normal stuff but it was all cleaned up and put away by 2 o’clock….it came out pretty good but I don’ think I’ll use apple juice again….nice and juicy, though, so that was cool….I am still so stuffed that I probably won’t need to eat again for a few days….I did get a bike ride in this morning and only got a little wet…but, I think I’ll say goodbye to the shorts for the year….on the bike anyway and I’ve gotten to t-day in shorts again so I can wear jeans tomorrow if I want…might not but I can….it has been an okay day…but, I am going to end here so I can have a cocktail and watch some shows…
November 26th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…slept okay last night but my back is still sore and it is getting annoying…even hurts down my left leg and that will be bad if it stops raining and I can get out on the bike….I do have the pie in the oven and it smells good in here and that will get even better when I put the turkey in later…brined it over night with rosemary and apple juice and I can’t wait for the one turkey that I make every year….going to slather it with butter so the skin gets brown, too….going to be a lazy day today and I don’t think I’ll do much around here but eat and nap….and come back for a couple of these if I can get some inspiration…oh, I did get something done yesterday…I lubed the bows on the top to get them to stop squeaking….was supposed to meet up with T for a couple but her day got away from her so I didn’t….okay…need more coffee…more later….
Just don’t want to get more behind…
Well…just sitting here waiting for the Man U match to start and thought I’d do another one so I don’t fall farther behind this month. After seeing the tape of the kid getting shot in Chicago last year…he was walking away from the cops and a new one rolls up and just starts shooting the kid in the back…shot him 16 times and would have kept going but other cops stopped him…they are finally going to charge the cop with murder but, my question is: “why did it take 13 months to charge this guy?” I think it’s all part of the cozy relationship that this prosecutor has with the cops, getting a large part of her re-election money from the police union…now….I am normally a fan of unions, but when we see them conspiring with the prosecutors to subvert justice, I think they should be de-certified and the officers charged. Just can’t believe this crap goes on and on in this country….geez….
November 25th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I lost at pool…again…but that was cool…didn’t put the top down yesterday and it was kind of pleasant being warm but I may drop it today if I go out this aft….slept okay last night and feel pretty good this morning and I’m not sure why….the bug is almost gone and my lungs are so much better but it has taken almost a month to get back where I feel okay…did get a bike ride in yesterday…finally…but had to do the almost full thermasuit…but I now know that I can go out in the mid 30’s and still be comfortable….the two pairs of glove cramped my hands, though, and my right forearm hurts this morning from it….I do have some stuff to get done this morning…need to brine the turkey this morning but that doesn’t take long…not much to do today…may meet up with T for HH later and that will be fun if it happens…..and I need to clean the bathroom but I’ll have plenty of time to do that over the next 4 days…more later….
November 24th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday and I got the oil changed in the car so that is something…and it helped the oil pressure in the car a bunch so that is cool…slept okay last night and it was a good thing there were no dreams…just didn’t want that same one to come back….still sore but will be getting back on the bike today and I hope that helps…will have to do almost full thermasuit and wait a while so the ice on the trail melts….don’t need to crash and get hurt….other than the oil change, didn’t do much yesterday….I was going to clean but really don’t have to so I didn’t….I do need to work out here in a minute to get back in the groove but I need to finish the coffee first…not much to do today…not sure about pool but I am sure I have lunch with T tomorrow so that is something to look forward to….more later….
