Monday

So, some dude that appears to be mentally unstable has won the democratic nomination for running for senate.  Of course the dems don't like it because - this guy doesn't have a mouse's chance in a pit of vipers of coming out of the race alive - politically that is.  How can a man rig the polls?  I don't know that that's possible.  Did people just go to the polls and pick the first name that they saw? Probably.  They voted for him, now it's a done deal.  They are trying to conjure up ways to disqualify him and get someone else in there in his place. 

Whatever.  It's just rather amusing to see such going on.

I did almost nothing outside this weekend concerning any kind of work.  I needed a break from it, I've been going at it for quite a while.  Instead, I went crazy on inside cleaning which needed to be done, so it's not like I feel like I just wasted an entire weekend doing nothing.  I'm one of those people that I would not feel comfortable having not done anything at all.  Actually, I was also dealing with kids this weekend - kids that don't want to listen and kids that were invited out, permanently, if they didn't want to change their tude'.  I further locked them out of internet access via the Playstation III.  You can actually surf the net through that system - go to websites, all kinds of junk.  I have no idea if there are restrictions to what kinds of sites it can go to, that is my next ordeal, finding out if such is possible and then either implementing parental controls or just shutting the net off to the thing permanently. 

I don't really have a lot of sympathy for kids that want to do nothing but sit around playing stupid video games all day long, literally. 

Countdown to week-long vacation: 18 days until the Friday that kicks off the Independence Day weekend.  I am soooo looking forward to some serious time off, verus a few days here and there.  I have no great plans with it, I just want time to do - nothing/something/whatever, don't really care, actually.  It will be a staycation - again - I haven't been on vacation going on 3 years now, or is it 4?  Well, whatever it is, long enough.  Isn't going to change anytime soon, either, unless some financial miracle comes my way.  I ain't ruling that out, it's happened before.  But, where would I go?  I will not be going to California until they stop all this boycott nonsense.  That may be a while before that happens. 

Anyway, just rambling.  The work day is  almost here, gotta see what's in our truck routing system, hopefully there's something in there to do.

G'day.

VERY interested to see how the primary story turns out. If they could do it anywhere, it's SC!

My interest in it is to watch the continuing, developing and apparently make-it-up-as-you go story (such the same as BP and it's alleged contingency plans) to get this guy somehow removed. I'm not sure that mental stability is a disqualifier if he was VOTED in as the primary running candidate. If there is fraud, they will find it. If there isn't, TOUGH luck.
