But it's Friday!

Wut? That food was for the cat?!  You shoulda said somethin'!

Rocky – chillin' with his brekkie

I’ve been making a valiant attempt to avoid the news. Sadly, I’ve not been terribly successful. This resulted in an ill advised third shot of Slane last night. No, I’m not hung over, just castigating myself mercilessly for the unhealthy overindulgence. Yup, I gotta chill the fuck out and cut myself some slack. NOW would be a good time to start, eh?

I’m well past Stress City here in Valhalla by the Sea. There’s the constant barrage of total heinousosity coming outta the Republican “helmed” (AKA maladjusted, dysfunctional, rapaciously and swinishly victimizing) government coupled with my upcoming MRI-a-thons.  I'm in for a total of five of 'em this month. They're just my usual-ish tumor let's stay on top of those suckers exams – not emergency EEK, what's THAT stuff. But still...significantly less than fun.

When I’m in such a jangled state I lose things like, fer instance, my current car registration. Did ya know? That’s needed when you get your car inspected.

I drove home from the garage and began an all out hunt. This, by the by, is a great way to achieve a clean car AND house. The search, sadly, was entirely without fruit. Not even a sad wilted grape leaf. I went online – would I need to motor down to the DMV? Could I even get a replacement registration same day?

Huzzah! On finally connecting with the real, actual DMV sites (versus the cleverly mocked up insurance industry traps) I was able to obtain a replacement instantly. They emailed me a PDF and I zipped back over to the garage.

Ah, but the car inspectors needed a physical copy. Looking at the form on my trusty lap top wasn’t good enough. J suggested I just email the PDF to him and he’d print it out.
          Cool – what’s yur wifi?
         We don't have wifi.
So then, I drove home yet AGAIN. Emailed my registration and returned to the garage. Third time in was a charm. I was finally good to go and, yes, I passed inspection.

This, theoretical, quickie errand consumed the bulk of my day. //groan// BUT my house and car are WAY more tidy now!

How will I duck the news and reduce my mega stress today? The gym. I’m way past due for water workouts. With kiddles back in school, the pool is beautifully calm. Maybe I can even score a lane for laps.

Now to find my bathing suit and will it fit? *sigh*

And will a serial sexual assaulter and total partisan hack, who has repeatedly LIED under oath, be confirmed as a Supreme Court judge, making the highest court an absolute, disgusting joke?

I think I gotta go sit on the seawall NOW and wait for the calming sunrise.
