Not to mention posting all night (remember the online mud/Jell-o wrestling?)
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Our wings are not tired.
The French whiplash was particularly hopeful. I don't know what can be done to drive sufficient turnout to keep the presidency and House and Senate to get anything done. There are so many that either don't care enough to vote, or feel hopeless and don't bother. The consequences of the misogynist, felon, bigot, and narcissist being in control are too frightening and depressing to consider. I want to go into rage mode when I hear 'both sides are the same' from young people. To keep positive thoughts for Florida we have both marijuana and abortion on the statewide ballot this year, so that may drive more people to the polls.
Yesterday was quiet! I was off computer most of the day, and will be today too. Two reasons, a rash on my bum that makes me want to not sit around, and lots of projects to attend to.
Today is sarameg's birthday, but I haven't seen her around these parts for a while. I do hope she is having a wonderful day.

Happy Birthday, sarameg! (Just in case...)
I have two more days of work, them I'm going to a weekend event and working a table with a non-profit I supoort/work very part-time for, run by a dear friend. It's going to be at a NASCAR race in the Poconos. Not my usual crowd, so it'll be interesting.
Not as hot as it's been, which is nice, and one of the ladies who's coming is bringing a big-ass canopy/tent thing, so... shady, at least. Wish me... something.
ETA: It's not the crowd I'm even so much wondering about. My friend, bless, is as kind as can be and also conservative (not a Trumpist) as are a majority of her volunteers (no idea). I just wish for literally zero political talk, because I just cannot.

Happy Birthday, sarameg!
We had a great delayed Independence Day backyard BBQ with the extended family Saturday. Even the weather was nice, when I'd expected it to be sweltering. So much good food, and a reminder that I really enjoy my cousins' company.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Happy birthday sarameg!

My suggestion for irony of the week - in the UK, Boris Johnson turned up at the polling place, but he hadn't brought his ID with him (which he had pushed for) and was turned away without voting

The French news would be better if the French left weren't almost as rabidly antisemitic as the French right.

Happy birthday, sarameg!
