My coworker yesterday sent me a message asking how far we were from Lansing. When I asked why, she told me that there were portests happening there. Protests about CANCELING THE SIP. WTF? These assholes were out there violating the SIP, not keeping good distancing, gathering in a group, gridlocking roads, all so they could send their employees back to work and open businesses. Seriously? The kicker is, how much you want to bet not a single one of THEM would go back to work but send in some poor hourly employee? People's lives are not worth you getting more money fuckers. These people disgust me. Hard to say you live in a free country when that freedom comes at such a high cost. This isn't about protecting anything except people's pocketbooks. WW2 was about protecting freedom. From there it's all been about money. Vietnam, Korea, Middle East, and now COVID. At least in those others we sent soldiers who to some respect knew what they were getting into. Now we're asking teenagers, the sick, the elderly, the poor to fight for nothing more than money and greed. Go fuck yourselves.

Finished my last group yesterday. So done. Now I have two days of peace. No expectations, no emails, no nothing. Privacy and relaxtion. Heck, I even slept in until 7. Look at me go.

Made fish tacos for dinner. We now have 10 lbs of hamburger, an eye roast, and a pack of steaks courtesy of B's mother. She went to Sam's club yesterday and sent us pictures of meat. We now have enough meat to get us through a good 14+ meals plus ton of leftovers.

Oh and they say a picture is worth a thousand words. Here's what things looked like here yesterday:

I got 1000 words for you and none of them nice. Tired of this shit. Tired of everything. The only upside was I got confirmation finally from American and National that my status will be extended one year. Even if I don't fly again this year, I am good. Also found out the kid got her money. That will get here 2 months rent so that's a positive.

Here's a random one for you: during class yesterday the question of whether the new Edge will work came up. I said I didn't know but what the heck, let's try it. Well guess what? It actually does work. Partially though because it really is fucking chrome with an edge sticker slapped on it. So yeah.

I think I will go take a nice soak now.
