Bad night's sleep, helluva time getting up, I forgot to take my BS this morning and I was almost late for work....

It was a pretty enjoyable day at work, though... I was working with the patients today, and it was, as usual, fun. And something that Eileene said last night hit me... she said that she likes to keep her relationships with her patients brief. That way, of course, there is nothing beyond the honeymoon... everyone is on their best behavior and then they all move on.

And it works even when the patient isn't on their best behavior... we still get to move on.

I did about 30 patients today, and 29 of them were great, and we had fun. The 30th, he wasn't going to have fun no matter what, nor would he remember any of it, most likely.

And as in the latter case, if I can't have fun with the patient, well, dammit, I can have fun with the accompanying nurse or other attendants...

So, I did get off on time, and I was standing in the kitchen talking with Karen when I noticed that the cabinet door was at a strange angle. I repositioned myself several times before I decided that yeah, it was real... the upper cabinet was pulling away from the wall.

We unloaded the cabinet and yeah, not only was the cabinet pulling away from the wall, the side was pulling away from the back. Well, dammit.

I guess that I will get some "L" brackets and see what I can do. I hate it when stuff breaks.

And speaking of breaks, I got the stuff to fix the brakes on the truck today... I was going to get the cylinder kits, but the guy talked me out of it... the whole cylinder only cost $10 more than the kit, and it's a whole bunch easier and much more reliable. And I did get the kit for the clutch cylinder, buying *that* whole thing was $60 more.

It is kind of interesting that all of the hydraulics would go out at about the same time... almost twenty years from when it was made. O'well....

Today was the first day of summer. No, really... well, not officially... but it got up to 90°F today... well, 99°F on the bank marquee. And 104° in Goodland, not that that has anything to do with anything. We have the AC on here, anyway, but it'll go off tomorrow, when the high is supposed to be a paltry 74°F.

WMD? No, I can't let it go. The trouble with us is that we let the sonofabitch lie to us and get away with it. Which means that he can do damned near anything that he wants and get away with it.

I would much rather have a philanderer in the white house than a liar... especially one who lies and those lies lead to the deaths of American fighting people. Clinton's lying about a blow job caused no deaths that I'm aware of, although I'm sure that his life was in danger from his wife.

And *they* attempted to impeach him for lying under oath.

A liar, a blowhard and, worst of all... a smirk. Yeah, I'm referring to BabyBush, not Clinton.

America has gone from appearing to be a justice-loving, peace-loving nation to being an international bully, courtesy of BabyBush and his cohorts.

Interestingly, we have not yet seen the bodies of either Ben Laden nor Saddam... also interestingly, neither is mentioned any more. Yep, we're supposed to forget the failures, just as we're supposed to forget the WMD ploy.

Here's a fun link... a partial list of lies out of the mouth of BabyBush. Grounds for impeachment? You bet. Will it ever happen? Nah.

I'm gonna sleep all day tomorrow, I really am!
