I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Is it evil of me to wish this whole mess sends the "Healthiest President Ever's" blood pressure skyrocketing high enough to cause something to pop? Or to wake Strom Thurmond up hungry in his crypt down in the Capitol's basement, I'm not picky...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

In the 90s here today. Supposed to be in the 70s by the weekend. Fall is weird.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Unfortunately, it's Bernie Sanders who just had to get a stent or whatever.

Ugh. There is no hot water in my Airbnb. And the issue with the laundry. Not pleased.

Thrive to spite them

Tomorrow the high is supposed to be 97 and on Friday 95. Then a cold snap and the high on Saturday will be around 77 and then next week it will be (hopefully) in the high 70s and low 80s.

I somehow got into a current events discussion with a coworker. One coworker , who said she is 38, claimed she is NOT A Millennial and Millennials are the kids in school and both of them were talking about how kids these days don't know how easy it is. And then somehow it segued into the older coworker saying that no matter how you feel about the current administration they are bringing industry and manufacturing back to the US and the current policies mean that America will once again be self reliant like they were back in the day. And coal will come back! I really should have stopped talking and walked away but somehow I couldn't.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm very sorry that I can only seem to duck in here for a quick post. Just wanted to say that Hamilton was phenomenal! Ryan was thrilled, and has been singing snatches of it since.

We're now in D.C. with 36-degree weather (97F). Mosquitoes have been devouring Ryan, we have confirmation that he's a nummy treat. Thanks to Hamilton, we know who to blame for tge nation's capital being built on a swamp. More when I get the chance.

Oh! And a reply to DebetEsse from so long back: I'm afraid you're right, we won't be getting out of Honolulu while we're in Hawaii. Indeed I think we'll barely make it off Waikiki Beach.

Today was the hottest October 2nd since they started keeping temperature records in my county, and the hottest October temperature recorded since 1897.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah, I figured. Have a Dole Whip for me.

Yikes, everyone! We're actually pretty seasonal here -- it was in the 70s yesterday, but only in the 50s today.
