 Welcome back to Standard Time. Bye-bye DST. And yes, I took full advantage of the "extra" hour and slept in this morning. I got over 8 hours of sleep! Very nice, very nice indeed.

What a strange Halloween it was. Not bad mind you, just strange. Too many things happening at once. Full Moon. Blue Moon. Election year. Pandemic. Time changes. That's a lot for one day to contain. But here we are on the other side. Welcome to Christmas 1st. 

I had a pretty busy day. Went to the grocery store early. Learned that you can't by alcohol in MI until 7am. Used to it being 6am where I'm from. Here it's 7. I needed a bottle of wine for last night's dinner in case you're wondering why I was buying wine at 6:30 in the morning. I needed to hit two stores anyway and I sat in the parking lot of the second one to make sure I didn't have any troubles with the wine. Funny thing though the self checkout clocks were two minutes off. Me and the attendant had a good laugh about it.

Rearranged my office. Gave myself some more space and mostly gave myself a 'change of scenery' if you will. Nothing major. Just moved the desk to a different wall. Helped me organize a bit too because I threw out some junk that had been cluttering my desk.

Water change on the big tank. All the fishies are happy once more.

Watched a spoopy movie for spoopy day. Was going to watch all three movies in the Firefly Saga (not the space Firefly, the serial killer crazy Firefly family) but only made it through Corpses before B was awake. Will probably watched Rejects today and maybe 3 From Hell. 

B hasn't seen her sister's in forever. They were originally supposed to come over last night but for whatever reason, the Mother has a stick up her ass once again and said they couldn't come because of COVID. Bitch, we are the safest house in town. You let them go to school and hang out with your parents, but they can't come here? Bite me.

We did our big fondue dinner last night. We spaced it out nicely. Did a cheese course first, then a broth course. Really pleased with how easy everything was to prep, make, and clean up. Something we will do regularly we think. Plus because we are still understanding how much food we need to prep for two people, we have a ton of leftovers which I am going to turn into beef tips over rice tonight.  

To close out the day, we crawled into bed and watched The Great Pumpkin. Fuck you ABC and AppleTV. We don't need your shit to watch Charlie Brown. Headed of to bed around 11.

A filled, busy day. Now to prep for the upcoming week of disaster. Did you all hear what that spray tan piece of shit cunt said yesterday? "When we win on Tuesday, or thank you Supreme Court, shortly thereafter...". Seriously? You're not even bothering to hide. Democracy is dead. Yeah yeah we can debate the nuance of us 'never really being a democracy' all day, but this is straight up bullshit. This is tyranny. This is beyond reproach. This week is going to be a fucking shitshow to end all shitshows. God help us all.
