m_d_hThe first Trump Administration is finally over. I got back to the house just in time to watch the proceedings on TV with T in the Media Cave, while sharing a bottle of champagne with cheese & crackers.
I was slightly worried this morning as I prepared to drive away from the downtown condo that there would be a last-minute nuclear strike or something like that, but after Noon passed one of my "secret squirrel" sources told me that they'd taken the Football away from Trump two weeks ago -- as I'd suspected, we did have a Coup two weeks ago, but it was a silent one, and not the one we were watching on TV --> the US armed forces placed themselves under the command of Vice President Pence without a formal declaration of the 25th Amendment.
I was way more emotional than I'd expected as I watched the proceedings with T. He'd given Dax a new Biden 2020 collar for the occasion, heh. That youth poet laureate was fuckin' amazing. Lady Gaga singing the National Anthem was an interesting choice, although she rearranged the music to a lower octave to more comfortably accommodate her vocal range.
Trump was such the asshole in not attending, but what else could we expect. I hope that with his term behind him and his Twitter account banned we can start to forget about him, but we've got an impeachment trial ahead and if he isn't convicted he may well run again in 2024.

MG from Twitter deleted his account! And he never did give me an alternate way of contacting him. Damn. And Mark from Reddit has all but disappeared, I've received one message from him in 2021.
But I've been less interested in the texting with far away strangers myself lately.

I was very happy to have more Time to Self at the condo yesterday, and I didn't have transition anxiety this morning! Now, what will I do with the rest of my day? Nap, probably :-)
