Still In A Daze

It feels as though people are freaking out more now than they did in 2016.  I think eight years ago was more horrible because this was the first time this fucking freak show was foisted upon the correct-minded among us.  But, maybe the idea that people who lived through Trump's first installation in the office actually liked it and voted for him again is good enough reason to in fact believe 2024 is worse.

Seriously, though, I need to unplug.  I totally understand the negativity and the need to process, but for me, coping has to be done away from the TV and from talk radio.  A week ago I wasn't looking forward to spending a long weekend with family, but I do now -- well, until they get on my last damn nerve.

And I just scared myself into thinking that My Mother will say that the rental I reserved is too small.
