i told off the president and secretary of state

I am in a faintly befuzzled and happy state of lightness, having used my dropdown menu in my sleep. Yes, grinding my face into my pillow and trying to strangle myself to death gave way to a trip to my spirit home, the place that keeps being ruined with shopping centers and the wealthy 1% half the time I close my eyes was relatively unscathed for once, only taken over by a bunch of highfalutin feds this time.

They were there so the president could open his planet sucking mouth again, but I told him off. OMG, I turned him into a pile of shredded paper on his podium before they could even roll out that STUPID dais and his fucking teleprompters. It was transcendental. I'd recount it word for word, but it wasn't in language. It was in direct communication that nobody there could mistake. Michelle was ushering her kids out from underfoot and, oddly, not assuming that raving bitch expression she gets too often, but trying to be sweet to me. Except her husband was in something of a state and had to go off to deal with that.

Hillary got up from her place on the sidelines, pleased, and asked me to follow her back to her cottage, whereupon she began to speak to me as a sister, and I unloaded on her so hard it would have undone any ordinary mortal, but it only made her pause a moment as she was hanging up her pantsuit jacket and resume her brutally unhappy countenance. No matter. She got the message.

I cannot express my gratitude for this dream. I feel like I weigh about six ounces.

I love you, and you, you know who you are.

  1. We can certainly attest to these figures:

    83 yesterday - normal for this time, 61 and rain today!

    8-10 degrees below normal predicted the rest of the week.

  2. Betcha the stats for May are going to put California into the darkest blue here. For SURE Del Norte County. We've had two fucking monster hail storms and a bunch of frosty mornings. I think the latest that's ever been before was in March. Seems the temps they give for Smith River are always Crescent City or even Eureka temps. They're ALWAYS higher on the lows and lower on the highs for here... so they just, evidently, don't care or don't know that this is something of a microclimate.

    The weirdest was day before yesterday. It had been in the low fifties all day and then around 7pm it shot up into the sixties and lasted until well into the night. Cold all day and night yesterday, and cold right now... about 54 degrees out at this moment. At least there's no icy breeze so far.

  3. Oh, man, so did I... so did I. Haven't woken up that happy in longer than I can remember.

  4. Dang!

    I need to remember to check the volcano cam when it's daytime!

    (The first time I went online to look at a weather satellite visual image I kept tweaking things and reloading thinking it wasn't working. Then it occurred to me "It's nighttime!)

  5. I have the SAME problem. Maybe we should put Post-Its on our monitors.... I got to see a bit yesterday because it's light later up there than here right now and I remembered in time for it to be dusk there, but, well, can we program our computers to remind us about this stuff?

  6. The image in this post was snapped no more than five minutes after I hauled out of bed. Radically less puffy and gloomy than usual. Yes, still very obviously out-of-it, but you can tell there's lights on in there!

    AMAZING! Dreampower forever.

  7. I'm having a bad problem with plantar fasciitis in my right foot.

    The look on my face upon first getting out of bed in the morning is one of wincing pain!

    Strangest damn thing. Once I start walking on it the pain goes mostly away, but after resting I can barely put any weight on it at all.

    The worst is after driving for a length of time. Working the gas pedal puts strain on my heel and it feels like someone hit me in the bottom of the heel with a hammer.

    I waited too long to get new work shoes and the arches had got messed up.

  8. Well, hell! Yer comment doesn't seem to be here yet, but it came in my email... so... I was right, wasn't I? You gained back all that weight. Back on yer bike! No more delectably fattening foods! And maybe you won't have to worry about this stuff when we're rustling polar bears into their refrigerated habitat....
