The sadness

So, PQ was last nite...we came in second.  We were behind, tied it, but missed in the tiebreaker.  It was especially painful because I missed a question -- hard -- by one word.  Completely unacceptable, and it will be a long time before this one stops hurting.

Tuesday was bad, politically, but expected... the House will not be fun, no matter what the President says.  While it was a good thing to pick up some Senate seats and maybe win the governors' races in FL and GA (I think we won, but this is just a ploy to cheat)... well, some of this -- a lot of it -- is self-inflicted, and there is no getting around that.  Lindsay Graham was on one of the pundit shows, pointing out the problems were with suburban women, but... I think a stint away from Twitter would be the ideal solution....  I also don't see getting rid of Sessions; for one thing, he was the first of the Trump supporters... it adds another layer of shit to the show...  the other, of course, is that the President is running around acting like he is guilty of something...
