I cannot possibly believe that calling Ted Cruz and John Cornyn will do anything, but I guess I have to try.

I have no faith in them. We need Republicansome to break ranks and for Dems to hold strong. I don't know if that can happen.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Dana, thank you for calling them. I cannot call from work. I need to try and remember to leave for lunch each day just to make calls.

My Rep is also a toad. Sigh. I mean, I'm not surprised, but. I'm vacillating between panic attacks and depression. (Metaphorically. Mostly.)

I called Rep. Matt Meadows his DC person was nit as nice as the local person but I can't find the local number.
I checked his FB page he's for the wall and was at the pro life March. Tomorrow I'm going to try and call again and say that I hope his pro life stance means he will support the ACA.

Light diversion: I have a Facebook friend who teaches at the University of Houston. She's originally from Wisconsin. She got an email this morning from a student who said she was not coming to class today because it was too cold to walk across campus. Today's low in Houston is 51; high 76.

Even in Houston, she'd be laughed at.

From the actual situations I've had personal knowledge of, abortion really seems to be about a pregnant woman's support network pressuring her into getting an abortion that she would have never chosen on her own, so that they won't have to be inconvenienced by her needs.
Now, I'm not a woman, but I suspect women do make their own choices. Seems awfully insulting, but I don't want to get into it with him.

My company is, of course, very fucking concerned about the Muslim ban.
Take care of yourself.
Thanks, -t. I'm feeling better today, but considering how tired I was this morning after a solid night's sleep, I'm glad I'm WFH today.
I may have to get a sunshine lamp just to get me through to spring...
Dana recommended her Philips wake up light, and I got one for Christmas. It's been helping me a lot since I have to get up before dawn in winter.
