I have my fingers crossed for you (and everyone else), Consuela.
Getting old is not for the weak, alas.
Facts.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our wings are not tired.
I'll probably do some basic medical visits after my medicare kicks in next month. I generally go alone, but my doctors are my customers so I end up working on their systems and answering questions about software when I am there.
I'm sorry you are stuck in limbo, Consuela. I haven't seen any good conjecture on what is going to happen. Maybe the public response to the speechifying tonight will shake things up. Not sure.
My tv plan tonight is watching the Golden Globes since I only saw the first half hour.

Huzzah!
Now I want to make a shrub.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
This drink needs a new name. The constant shudder of association with GWB is unnerving--the fact that people are *liking* "shrub" is equally disturbing.
Yeah, I'll get over it.

Call from Cardiologist was to reschedule the echo test. Fortunately the office is at the hospital across the street from my complex. The parking lot entrances between the two directly face each other. I took the earliest appointment available so I could go to work right after. I shouldn't even be late. I'm such a good worker.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was feeling nostalgic this morning for how much I used to hate GWB. I would take that back if it meant being out of the present situation.

It couldn't be easier -- just takes time.

I mostly want to remember how much I used to hate him and not let him get retroactively softened.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am not watching his stupid racist roadshow this evening. Or listening. Gonna rewatch some Sherlock instead.

Yes, much of that tenure started our current mess. The 2000 election debacle undermined confidence in the election system. The Iraq insanity undermined our status in the world and made the terrorism situation that much worse.
Part of my rewrite finds him a pawn for more evil players, much like Trump is a pawn for Putin. That excuses neither of them for their actions.
Yeah, not over it.
