Dear Senator Bunning of Kentucky -
It's nice that you have never had to struggle to pay your bills and feed your family. Seriously, I'm glad you haven't had to go through that. However, you are now the one putting my family in that position. I hope you taint gets infected and leaks green pus all over the senate floor, you fuckwad.
No love,
The Empress
For those who don't know, he's the lone senator that blocked the umemployment benefits extension which the Miracleborns need to make ends meet every month. Without it, I just don't know.
The extension didn't go through?
Fuck.
All the others went without a hitch. Fuck fuck fuck.
Nope, he deliberately blocked it. Fuckhead. I'm pretty sure my sister and her boyfriend are both fucked also.
I'm pretty sure they'll get another bill together and vote on it. It doesn't
have
to be the easy, unanamous, just-about-automatic, approach they have taken with extensions so far.
There's been some talk about a more long range approach rather than these repeated short extensions. Would be nice if they addressed it with a little more time to spare, however. Fuckers.
Traffic gods were nice. 20 min early. Decided not to wear my "We The People..." tie, in case it sent the wrong message. It's an arts school. Butterflies!!!
Thanks for the compliments on the hair and the nails. The game was fun, though I was a bit torn since Dallas was playing NO.
I seem to have meetings all morning long.

Somehow my eyes skipped a line and saw this as "Thanks for the NO compliments on the hair and the nails" was like wow, rough morning? Plus I know we commented on the pretty purple nails. Heh.
I think about that sometimes when I'm using NO for New Orleans. That people are going to think I mean negatory.
Feel-betters to Hil and Calli. sj, I hope you're much improved. Commiserations on the obstacles, Seska. Nice leather, meara, and resucitations vibes to Romero. I've been sending eye-sporking thoughts to Bunning. Tigers and snowmen just make me think of Hobbes.
Compliments to Daisy are a foregone conclusion.
Still no news from here. I like this part. I do need to see a joint specialist about my left thumb, though. Sprained about a year ago, it never has healed correctly and has now developed the clever trick of sliding halfway out of joint whenever I do something strenuous like, oh, I dunno, turn my hand over. A brace would seem to be in order, but one has to be able to afford the doc and then the therapy on self-pay, and there's the mammo coming up this week, and the blood work and followup at the end of the month, and H needs to see his PC and have his meds tweaked. Have to space these things out and budget them. We gave up on medical insurance years ago.
But that's not really news. So, more coffee? Yes, please.
