So today started out a bit rough.  A miscommunication between Dave and I left me not only overdrawn but with $50.00 in bounced check fees.  And after begging, borrowing and turning in aluminum cans I managed to get us out of the hole.  I love aluminum cans, yes I do.

The twelve pack from the other day almost fully ingested at this point.  And just wishing this would all go away.  I'm so grateful mom has her senior potluck tonight.  I can't even tell you.  A much needed break on a really screwed up day. 

The trailer should be ready in about four - five days.  And I'll finally be able to flee.  At least put a definitive date on leaving ..... oh yes.  Monday the Lifeline service I'm getting mom hooked up to comes out and puts everything together.  YAY! 

I heard today that shoplifting is on the rise.  Is anyone surprised?  For real?  Siphoning gas .... once again an issue ..... but now punching holes in the gas tank is the easiest way to steel from you.  It used to be a hose back in the 70's.  Thieves have managed to get around those wonderful locking gas caps. 

What I find so funny is this:  I was known for saying that we (my generation) was lucky ..... lucky to have been born when we were.  I'm starting to wonder.  Is there ever a right time to be born?  When true peace will / can dominate through the lifetime of a generation?  I'm thinking no.  It's not possible.  I can say that I am grateful for sticking to my guns and not bringing a child into this world.  How could I feel right about the next few generations suffering through what I feel  is bound to come.  I can't.  No way.  Whether I'm right or wrong.

To heal the planet and the people in it .... well, its going to take time.  To recover from the last eight years of Bush-hell its going to take time.  Time.  How much time do I actually have before its over?  How much more can we take before we say "I give" ....... "you have taken it all .... I have nothing left" ....... I hate fucking greed.  I hate it.  I hate the oil companies, I hate President Bush, I hate all the fucking other stupid Republicans out there who think that what is happening today is ok ...... its not fucking ok.  You are killing your own.  And you don't care.  You stupid stupid people.  You are turning honest people into desperate thieves ..... let me ask you ..... do you care?  You dumb bastards. 

All right ..... my drunken rant for the day ...... I'm angry today ...... wanting to reach out and just shake the shit out of someone ....... can they honestly be so fucking blind?  Can they?



Peace.  J.

Re: Drunken Rant
Amen...sometimes I get so angry with the greed of Bushie and the oil ilks that I feel like I could go on a fucking drunken rage.  I haven't done it yet - but it sure might feel good.  Unfortunately, it would only hurt me and not them.  But I understand the anger!!!!

Re: Drunken Rant
Are you doing better today?  I am sweltering around here, so not online much.  It was 103 here yesterday and I think about the same today.  No a/c either, as we usually don't need it...hot hot hot

Doing better ...... thanks .....  Smiley

Wow ..... its 82 today ...... thunderstorms on and off ...... last night was lightning and thunder all night ..... pretty dark outside right now ...... hoping that no fires get started ..... think we skated last night .... luckily .....

I'll try to send some of this cool breeze your way ..... !

Peace.  J.

Re: Drunken Rant
There have been fires all over the place around here.  My postalperson (Patty the Post person) had a fire right next door to her place, in the hills around here.  And there's a third fire around Watsonville, or the Santa Cruz Mountains.  Damn...sorry about the lightning.  I'm not surprised.  It is so hot I have been spraying myself with water.  Kinda sick yesterday and today with the heat.

 

Take care, Namaste...A.

Re: Drunken Rant
YOU take care ...... find somewhere to stay cool ..... !

Well, thankfully I found the source of the smoke ...... a house down the road burning slash ...... and that is a good thing unless of course it gets out of control.

The fire season will be crazy this year ..... if this is a hint of whats to come ......

Peace.  J.

Re: Drunken Rant
The fire season ALREADY is crazy this year.  I can't even imagine what is going to happen.  I keep hoping and praying for some uncommon summer rainful - and I mean a drencher. 

Good to hear about the slash burning.  But why in hell would someone do that NOW?  We are only allowed to do it during certain times of year and it is too late now around here - for sure.  Actually, we're not allowed to do that anymore around here - only outside of the towns.

 

I got your cool breezes.  They began to come in just a little while ago.  Much more manageable now.

Namaste, A (but my brain is still fried from the heat)
