When I Was Your Age

 It did not take long for the religious zealots of the internet to piss me off. Let me just say this: If you do not know a lick about poverty or sociology, keep your mouth shut and stop voting. Instead, pick up a peer reviewed journal on the subject and start reading. When you know enough about the issues you are spouting on about, then open your mouth and pick up a ballot. It was not just easy to do in your day, it was possible. I am trying to not let it ruin my day but when the older generation says the most ignorant things towards me, it gets me riled up. Is this a taste of what it is like to be black?

Speaking of ballot, an old acquaintance was talking about all the terrible candidates running for mayor for Baltimore. I have decided to put my name on the ballot for fun. I know I will not win but I will still try my best. I just want to see if so many people are sick of the old rich candidates, how about a young poor one?

Today was a lazy day and we are expected to move the couch out to the curb tonight. Finally that nasty thing will be gone.

Song of Storms

Today went much better despite getting rained on when I got out of Petsmart with Khaleesi. I bought some more crickets for Magdalene and she did not try to run when I poured them in. I edited some video that I took of her:



It is slightly storming outside right now, sort of soothing. I am done going outside for the day anyway but it might mess up my internet connection. Our internet provider that was once a saint because it meant we did not have to go back to a monopoly, is going out of business. The company who bought them is not continuing internet service although it would probably be the best business move they could ever make. So we will have to use Verizon since it is cheaper for longer. When the deal runs out, we will think about switching again. Our home insurance does not want to cover the branch that fell in our yard because it did not damage anything so our next step is calling around for quotes. The only one I have is $600-$800. I will send pictures to other companies and see if they can give me a quote without coming out. The last thing I want to do is to watch a guy look at a tree while Khaleesi barks desperately to meet the new human.

Tomorrow is Another Day

I did not sleep at all last night due to the stress and tension all over my body. I took some Ibuprofen in the middle of the night but it did not do anything to relieve it all. It used to. I need to get into having a cup of herbal tea at night. I did that a few days ago and it worked wonders. So today I am angry as anything. Sibey is still pooping on the couch and I am not sure who can help me move it to get it to the curb for bulk pick-up.

Hours later...

I just ate a huge pile of nachos are sugar cookies. My life is in shambles. I thought I might have to throw up but I am good now. I walked Khaleesi and took a nap. Not a productive day today but that is okay. Tomorrow is another day.
