Now tagless for your comfort.

I couldn't sit for the shitshow.

Straight up pie for breakfast is hard to beat

Challenge accepted -- plus homemade whipped cream.

BOOM!

What is even happening?

I'm with Vortex. Life's too short not to eat pie for breakfast. It just feels long, because Trump has broken time.

I couldn't sit for the shitshow.

I sat for the shitshow. Now, I can't sleep for the shitshow. I hope November 3rd is a fast-acting high colonic for the country.

I'm so afraid the GOP is going to steal the election. Again.

All is well with DP. We've been home since 10p, mostly sleeping, as you do. No explanation for the edema, but all the bad stuff ruled out. Thanks for the good thoughts.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I had the shitshow on but I was writing postcards for Jaime Harrison the whole time.

Much, much, much health~ma to Buffistas and their people.

Then you might have missed esse thanking you for your card. So it was received, Shir.

Thank you, David (and esse, too).

I'm on day 2 of flu shot side effects (as expected. I almost always get a bit sick after flu shots for about 48 hours). So I took a sick day from work yesterday, but I did manage to write something for a deadline after a few hours of doing nothing but resting.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm afraid GOP may steal the election, too. But if they don't, I'm afraid there won't be enough downvoting to get rid of enough of them that they throw obstacles in the way of everything Biden and co--I'm sure he has a cabinet and chief officers ready to go. I want him to stop, repeal, roll back and correct as much as possible on go, and then get to work on rebuilding. And I'm afraid the GOP will sabotage every effort.

Voted! Drove downtown to the collection box. A young woman parked, got out and walked quickly to the box, took a pic of her ballot and one of her face and her hand sliding her ballot into the slot. There were two walkups next who dropped their ballots in with a big smile. And then H dropped both of ours in the box. Felt really good. I can track them online. I wish everybody had the same easy access to voting as we do.

Our wings are not tired.

All is well with DP.

Yay for ruling out bad stuff.

Woo for Voting!

My prediction. Landslide Biden win. A couple weeks later, after no lawyers will work for him to challenge election, Trump resigns for family reasons, gets Punce pardon, and flees country to hide from NY authorities.

Alas, we still have to wait until January to get any relief or direction. And who knows how much damage McConnell will do in the meantime.

Thrive to spite them

I think pie for breakfast is fine. It can't be that much different from eating a cinnamon roll or a Danish.

There is not enough pie in my life. This reminds me that I never had pie at my favorite diner when I was up north for the summer. I did go to the diner twice, but ate boring breakfast stuff, not pie. Well, not really boring as they have homemade bread so the French toast was pretty extra yummy.

Summer usually involves lots of going out to restaurants and movies and events. Next summer, maybe?
