Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

1/5

Class is currently out of session.
It’ll start back soon and I have some precious free-time.
Still, I’m having a hard time motivating myself.

That’s kind of the thing. When I have time, I don’t have the motivation. Whe I don’t have time, I’m motivated. I think I’m just perpetually in love with ‘what ifs’ but not the follow through.

But, I’m taking action today.
I’m writing in my blog.

I think I’ve gotten a little better mentally.
I’ve been able to resist taking daily naps for the past couple of weeks. Helpful, although the headaches are sill lurking around. I’ve got one right now, actually. It’s living in the back left of my head pulsing.

Yesterday, I swore that I was going to go to the gym. Just take the bike down there and workout for a couple of hours. Obviously, didn’t happen. I overslept a little and am waiting on the guy to get the car.
– The back windown needs to be tinted. Geico paid for it to be tinted. It’s a leased car and should be tinted. But, hasn’t been and it’s been a struggle for about a month now. Someone is supposed to pick up the car and bring it back today.

Since I overlsept, the tinting has been rescheduled and I’m waiting for them to get it.

Course, Jason is here. He can hand over the key just as well as I can. So, I still could have went to the gym – but still didn’t.

Yeah, messed up.

Physically, I’m actually worried a bit about my teeth.
I think I’ve chipped a moler and know I’ve lost a filling or two.
I was ill a couple of days back for an evening – but, got over it quickly.

Well, sort of quickly. The day after I was ill, we went to a park and walked around a lot. It was a bright and warm day. Which is awesome, but I wasn’t feeling 100% and there was random horse crap on the trail. I don’t think I took my eyes off the ground to really enjoy the scenery.

Looking for horse crap while wondering if I’m going to throw-up isn’t the best date idea.
— But, any date is better than no date.

Hum… Big day today – Georgia is voting for the fate of the Senate.
It’s a special election because of something another. No idea why, but the mud is still slinging.

Hugely important. If the presidency goes to Biden and the House is Democrat – the Senete is the only thing that is keeping America from falling into socialism. Well, that’s how it’s being spun.

They’re probably right.

The government is supposed to be blanced. Everything keeps everyone in check. But, guess not and I’m kind of not caring at this point.

Trump has all but lost the presidency. In Georgia, the Democratic canidates are going to win. Or, if they wanted some sort of fairness, one would win and one would lose — which equates to about the same thing if both win.

There’s been calls for America to split into two nations — which I don’t see happening. America is too proud and too powerful to split. And, after a generation, it really won’t matter how things used to be. All of those who remember will be shunned and dying off.

I am actually kind of in support for not using words like mother, father, aunt, and uncle in legal langauge. But, it was implimented for the wrong reasons. Congress wants to avoid gendered terms. Pronouns that designate male and female are too antiquated since anyone can wake up in the morning and practically be any gender for that day.

That, I don’t like. It’s biased against people who are mothers, fathers, and whatever. Besides, who is to say that a person can’t be a woman one day and a man the next but a mother on both days? It’s limiting.

But, terms like mother, father, and whatever tend to carry emotional implications.
A woman is viewed differently than someone who is a mother. A little brother has a different skillset than a man.

If it means that the laws will be less emotionally based and centered on logic, I’m all for it. There’s too much irrational emotion in the legal system. I’m not saying that government should be soulless – far from it.
But, crap rolls down hill.

Once things start to slide, it’s hard to bring things back up to quality.
Plus, people take advantage. It’s like how some people purposedly have ten children for the government benefits. Anyone can have children, money aside, but having them to avoid getting a job is something else.

I’m trying to think of an example and totally failing right now.

There has to be structure and rules.

People can’t just be trusted, especially with any sort of power.
It will be abused – just as Hunter earned his money. He didn’t work for it but had the good fortune to be born a Biden. He (and his dad) abused their power for privilege.

Part of the reason why I think they where able to do so was the emotional connotations attached to power and wealth. i.e. – He doesn’t have to steal because they’re already rich. That doesn’t always matter. Sometimes, it’s just the thrill of the steal that drives people.

Some people are inclined to define limits.
If they get away with someone, they continue. It’s kind of like serial killer. If he can get away with one, why not more? It’s a game to push boundries.

… It’s not always bad, mind you.
It can be quite a confidence builder to perform and be better than what you think you can do.

But, ‘being better’ is selective. Being better at running or scamming the public?

Dunno… Think I’m going to go for a walk to try to get rid of this headache.
— They still haven’t come to fix the car yet.
