holy crapoly

I got home from the grocery (to a clean house). My plan was to put the cold stuff in the fridge, and then log on and check the Georgia nums and write my LJ entry which I had already composed in my head. And by the time I sat down all hell had broken lose in Washington.

Over the past few weeks particularly, every time does something Trump (aka stupid) and everyone gets all shocked, my brain has said "why or why are you even surprised????" He has not changed one tiny little bit ever. He's always been the way he is today long before he was president. No one should ever be surprised.

Except now I am. I shouldn't be but I am. This is the wildest thing ever. He has absolutely out Trumped himself this time. Holy fuck.

My foray out into the world was successful. I've been home for 20 minutes now and have not yet thought of anything I forgot to get. Personal victory. I even remembered to find an ATM for cash to pay the cleaner for future weeks.

While I was out, Amazon Pharmacy figured out the inhaler situation. My account already shows that the old one has been canceled and the new one is good. I was able to order it. $47 instead of $100. Cool. I must say that I am very impressed with Amazon Pharmacy. My 'dashboard' gives me more info than any other pharmacist I've tried. Orders take two days. Pricing makes sense. And, they give me the option (and the price) of purchasing outside of insurance. Not to mention the 5% discount.

Oh and in between the Washington DC tweets, there's one with the new Washington State vaccine groups. I got promoted! I'm now 1b and the chart says vaccine in January. I'm sure that won't happen regardless but I'd feel incredibly guilty taking a vaccine ahead of everyone else. I don't need to go anywhere I might be exposed. Honestly, I should be last on the vaccine list.

While I was out and waiting to come home, I decided that getting my house cleaned was really not worth it any more. I should drop back to once a month or just let her go all together. Except now, I'm in my clean house and nope. Totally worth it. I might consider making it once a month. I probably will. But I do love having clean.

I got poke for lunch. Chow time.

I am watching the news updates roll in and absolutely cannot believe my eyes. What a mess.

Yeah, I was watching the TV and saw the protestors... and they kept getting closer and closer to the capitol and on the steps and my thought was they were just letting them up on the steps to blow off steam. But, no, they were SHOCKED! SHOCKED! I say that they were out of control and the President didn't try to stop them.

I am constantly amazed at that people are amazed that this happens. I'm with you. Could have written this whole scenario in advanced.

A few heads will be rolling over this one.

Is Amazon Pharmacy only local to you or can anyone use it?

[susandennis]

I believe it is US only but easy to check availability here:

Not in Illinois yet. Oh well.

I have been obsessively flipping between news sites all afternoon. Between him and Giuliani (calling for trial by combat earlier in the day), it’s not surprising some are calling it a coup or insurrection.

I've got it on TV. It's hard to find a network with commentators who aren't saying stupid stuff so now I'm just flipping between them in mute.

MSNBC was the best I could do when I was watching. I tuned in and out of the audio mostly to hear from lawmakers locked down inside. What a complete horror show.

I can't believe all that is going on. Well, I can, but damn. What's sad is the number of people I know who have been posting on FB about how great it all is, it's about time people stood up against tyranny, that sort of thing. Scary.

I have that same conversation with myself about my house cleaner! Every time she sends me her reminder text the day before I think, 'okay, I really shouldn't pay for this, I can clean the floors myself' and on it goes. Then I come home to a clean house and I go back to thinking it's worth every penny. lol

house cleaner syndrome :)

I have just seen some clips from Washington on the BBC news - and I am just appalled. That man has done so much damage to your country, it is very sad - and scary in some ways, too.

Yay for getting everything.!

Unbelievable, what happened in DC today.

[picosgemeos.livejournal.com]

I'm glad today's inauguration is going smoothly (so far!) Just heard a rumour that Trump wants to start his own political party? When the invasion of the Capitol happened, my first thought was: that's it, Trump has screwed over the Republicans for the next couple of decades.
