Ouch.

A cranky day.  I doubt if the "ruling" yesterday has any part in the pain of this day, if it doesn't help.  A headache, couldn't wake until noon, general illness, not good.  I did get my medicine set up for the next two weeks today, and I started my potassium.  A smaller glass of Gatorade mixed with the stuff is the way I am going for now.  No, I was ill before I took anything.  I may take an extra set of aspirin and hope that deals with the pain.  I can't be certain what the problem is but it is going to be a rough day.

While the ruling yesterday was not good, it actually doesn't effect my outlook.  I had given up on a political cure long ago, if you remember rightly.  Until Romney is seen as being as leftist as Obama is now, nothing will change (for the better).  The Republicans, including Romney, suggest that if elected they will begin to dismantle zerocare.  In other words, they will keep what they want and discard the bits they don't like.  Who knows what they will be keeping, assuming they gain power, but don't count on them not keeping the mandate.  Either through "negotiations" or a realization that the parts they want can't be kept without a mandate.  You have no rights and your reps could give a rip about what you want.  They are all making a fortune off this and monsters like it. 

It is going to be a rough day, whatever.  Still, I need to get to the store, though much later, when it cools a bit.  I had hoped to be in town after dark, but with the sun not setting until well after 20:00 or even 21:00, and Sam's Club not staying open that late, with my friend needing something from them, it looks like I will be heading in more like 17:00, give or take.  I hope aspirin does the job because right now I could not get to town.  Ouch, youch, and zouch.  Not a good start to the day. 

I did fry gizzards for lunch.  Yum!  I used the only flour I had on hand, whole wheat.  And, you know what?  I think I liked it better!  Seriously.  I was quite surprised.  I have several pork cutlets to fry before long.  I look forward to testing those with this flour.  I am absolutely amazed.  Plus, they brown so much better.  Who knew!  And, I still enjoy my little life, what is left of it, and will continue to do so.  Life is hard, but enjoying it?  Not really so hard, no matter what else happens, if I just shut my eyes for a moment and... let things go.  God does not have me here, in life.  Not technically, though there is some suggestion otherwise in the book and theories.  But we will all die, some of us horribly, in great pain.  Some of us live that way.  If I think Father didn't want it that way, He did allow us to choose the way of pain.  Father tells son about gravity, son chooses to jump off the roof of the garage anyway.  Done that, been there, have the memories to boot.  He has me ultimately.  And, yes, that is enough, more than enough.

Later.
