I remember when some people thought the Reagan presidency would bring on the revolution.
My wanna-be hippie pot-smoking college boyfriend and his wanna-be hippie pot-smoking friends all thought the revolution was imminent. Reagan was the WORST. Surely this horrible regime would bring about the peaceful uprising of the people! They talked a lot and never did anything. Except smoke pot. And nearly set my dorm room on fire that one time. That was as close as they came to burning down the establishment.
Instead, the first black president DID bring the "bring back the past" revolution of racist America.
Well bless. Storm in Denver has shut down restuarants, multiple MAIN roads, the airport, and, oh, where am I...not home. My flight tonight has been cancelled. First available flight is 6am tomorrow for an exorbitant cost and my travel agent doesn't think it is going to fly anyway. Next available is mid-day Friday. In trying to extend my rental car, Budget is saying I never picked up my car. Thankfully the travel agent is going to fight that battle for me.
Meanwhile at home there is over 2 feet of new snow in my backyard. I've been getting estimates on replacing my back fence. It is only 4' tall and is in rough shape. Apparently this snow may take the fence down with it. So I really need to get moving on getting that replaced.
Thankfully I packed one extra change of clothes and there is a washer/dryer at the hotel. Why can't I get stuck somewhere fun?

Utah would be more fun if it could.
I have to much work to do to find much fun anyway. But Taylorsville/Murray are kinda underwhelming. I liked it better when our office was downtown.
Two of my co-workers are Trump fans and keep having non quiet conversations about the election. They apparently are making comments about the local coffee shop, whose owner is a Muslim immigrant and whose wife wears the hijab. (Google, why is hijab not in my dictionary?)
I work in a very diverse organization, with numerous immigrants from many different places, and I cannot believe these two guys.
So far as I can tell, they haven't violated the Hatch Act. Yet.

Eesh. Yeah, that's a very sad place to be. Are you anywhere close to Trax?
Is the Zuckerberg conducting social experiments on me again? Lately, I feel like fb has been super flaky for me, when other websites (including the always reliable b.org) have not been. I keep blaming a shoddy internet connection and then discovering that the internet is just fine, it's just fb that's fucking with me.
Are you anywhere close to Trax?
Not sure, I do have a rental car.
Liese, I haven't been on FB much today, other than whining my plight. But it worked for me?
I am so done with today. I wanna bail on work and maybe go find a movie.
Yikes, Suzi! I hope you get home soon.
Totally different yikes, Consuela!
