Rectal Cranial Inversion Syndrome

I suffer from two unknown syndromes.  RCI (Rectal Cranial Inversion) is an intermittent syndrome where my head somehow finds it's way up my a**.  Lately it's been in a constant condition that is starting to feel like the new norm.  The second is FFS (fat finger syndrome) where it doesn't matter how hard you try to hit the right key you always hit the one next to it.  And with my current state of nails, even a larger keyboard poses a problem.

Why am I sharing this?

In Frailty to Faith I was talking about how scared I am about starting school Monday (Feb 5, 2018).  And I'm sure you can understand that given where my head has been lately.  I got my confirmation from school today to start June 4, 2018.  Somehow my lack of clear thought and fat fingers signed me up for the wrong class!  If I can't extricate my head from my rear soon, I may never be able to watch Jeopardy again.

I'm terrified.  I don't know if I'm going to get the right date at BAMA, I don't know if I can financially survive until June 4.  Ideas like Lyft, Home Instead to be a granny nanny, Trader Joe's to work the register and I'm still trying to get back on board with IHSS to keep my insurance. I know it will only be for a few months, that is if I can keep the job with my head so firmly up my fanny they don't fire me for blatant stupidity.  I'm not being hard on myself, trust me, this isn't the first RCI adventure in the last week or so.  The others are more embarrassing than this one.  I seriously felt my IQ drop at least 60 points....it was really, really, stooopid bad.

Faith is the key.  I keep telling myself to have faith, to have courage and to just trust in the Lord....but I'm still scared.  I tell myself I have faith, I have faith, I have faith.  Courage, like faith, is an action word but I don't know how to act.  Trust is a rare commodity for me, but I am trying.
While working on the resolution for this kerfuffle I blundered myself into,  it occurred to me there are things that I can do in those four months that would really be useful and would give me time to piece my brain back together again.  So, if money wasn't a problem, would it really hurt if I had to wait until June?  I dunno.

=========

Resolution: I was able to change my class back to Monday.  Now I just need to get rent covered and everything will be fine again.....well, once I pull my head out anyway.

I'm Baaaaaaack!

I know, I took a loooooooong break.  I was hoping to get back into the fray when Trump won the RNC vote as their candidate.  There are so many things that could be said, jokes that could be shared, but we all should agree that hands down he is the most vile person ever to inhabit the oval office.  I don't care if you are a #dumptrump or a #makeamericagreatagain, nothing is going to change the fact that he is a vile, misogynistic, self-important, arrogant, lying, deluded human being.  (If you think it's okay for men to grab women and kiss them against their will, or grab their private parts, please, by all means send your beautiful daughters and sisters to meet him and see if your mind changes when he violates them.)  The bright side of Trumps reign is we have learned no Presidential legacy is indelible, meaning the day after our next president takes office everything wrong he's done can be struck out with a signature.  Everything that favors the 1% will be struck down.  How do I know that?  It is the only way anyone is going to be elected.  By the time he is done raping the middle class the middle class will rise up and we will either have an all democratic house and senate or we will have moderates that are willing TO WORK TOGETHER LIKE GROWNUPS.

The next three years of the megalomaniac in chief isn't going to be easy for anyone in the 99%.  Like I said, I don't like him as a person, he is not someone I would even cross the room to meet.  I would help him if he were bleeding or needed help crossing the street because that's who I am.  If he touched me inappropriately I would break his arm, but I would help him.   What realty irks me is there is really nothing I, personally, can do about him.  We as a country need to require him shovel his manure off our streets and start doing the work he has promised, at least to the people that voted for him.  Being in California and in the sites of his anti-democrat revenge schemes I really know I personally don't have a lot of power to make any changes on the national level.....that doesn't make me powerless.

I've adopted the adage "Humanity is my race and love is my religion".  I am Christian, and in some opinions, overly so.  And like every Christian it is required of me to love my fellow human beings (yes that includes Trump) and I have a sacred responsibility to help them when I can.  People are going to be hurting these next three years because of the cost of government will be redirected away from the 1% so the burden will be on the rest of us.  If you can help someone eat, feed them.  If you see someone cold give them warmth.  If YOU are hungry or cold reach out to someone.  Service is a two way street...both to serve and to provide the opportunity for service.

I challenge you to stop wasting time complaining or joking about the president to find a way to solve the problem....either join a protest, a letter writing campaign (like Amnesty International), work with the candidates you feel have the chance to topple this house of cards and put the government back where it belongs....in the hands of the duly elected officials chosen by the people, for the people.
