this surprises no one

same

and now my dryer is dead & no longer under warranty. when it rains, it effing pours. i am losing my mind.

guess what? i wont be able to afford healthcare now either! bonus!

they're all c*nts 😑

is this a sign for Congress so they know which side of the aisle to sit on? 🤣

looking like I’ll be paid soon, i guess, but won’t be able to afford health insurance now. not really a win.

i’m going to bed because if the shutdown ends overnight & i have to go in regular time tomorrow (as opposed to working remotely) then i have to get up at 4am.

they’re voting on cloture. yes, i wanna get paid, but not at the cost of others losing their health care or SNAP. i’m nervous & this sucks.

made it home from work & got the bins out just before the storm hit. scarfed some leftovers & now i’m just gonna veg in front of the boob tube.

are we ready for another day of the us senate accomplishing nothing whilst pontificating another banal round of "I Know You Are, But What Am I?" & mr speaker knowing (& doing) absolutely nothing about anything? 😡

haha no…they’re being paid & the House hasn’t even been in for over a month

they don’t care

still no pay 😡

not feeling hopeful about this pending Senate vote. they’re still just bitching 🙄

in the end he regretted it, but i doubt he learns a single thing 😉

he's a handful sometimes. he's the first dog i've ever had who was tall enough to counter surf. he's helped himself to steaks right out of the cast iron pan to pizza & he loves to lick the butter dish of all things, so we have to hide it. we're both still learning...with love 💕

Kylo is feeling better after this morning's scare. he has napped, eaten again, drank water, & is outside playing with Xena. also, my work for the day might actually be complete (i'm remote today) so now we wait for Senate votes with cautious optimism, especially since the House remains out 🫣

so, happy Friday? praying now for the government to re-open 🙏 so i can pay bills & buy food n stuff.

welcome to the Proton family ☺️

the food that came up contained tea leaves, so he did eat it

pet medical crisis averted 🙏

first dose of peroxide administered. sorry, buddy.

vet does not know 😑

suggested that either i make him vomit with hydrogen peroxide or call the pet poison hotline

Kylo just stole & ate (i think) half of a pu-erh tea cake that was on my counter. i don't know if he ate it or not because he ran outside & of course i couldn't find it in the grass, dirt, & leaves. my biggest worry is the caffeine, i think, but on the phone with the vet now...

Word of the Day is ‘catchfart’ (17th century): an obsequious individual who sucks up to the boss and always follows the political wind.

ooh! i did not know this! i'll check when i get home from work. thank you 😊
