Thank you for tolerating my invasion of your post. Somehow it seemed to fit. Actually the long john was much too sweet...but I ate it anyway. Perhaps I am a teapot? 🫖
"Another source familiar with the dynamic in the office told CNN that Halligan was interested in moving around prosecutors who she believed may oppose her work on highly politicized cases."
No statistics at hand, but I know there are an extraordinary number of bus crashes and resultant fatalities. Bad roads, bad weather, bad drivers, bad buses. 🙄
"What a stupid time to be alive" is how I feel much of the time. What on earth has happened to so many men and boys? They assault, rape, kill; they use knives and guns. They join armies and fight other armies. Why? It's more exciting than working or caring for others. So stupid. 🤔
Later in the day, I discovered that "National Coming Out Day" was being observed by some. I came out 60 years ago and was unaware that donuts were included.
Just a half block from the long john encounter is a crosswalk painted in--you guessed it--rainbow colors. It's old, dirty, scratched up. 🤔
I realized the colors were meant as a rainbow. I burst out laughing. (I am sure they were bewildered, perhaps hurt.) I said that I am very tired of rainbows--the flag was born in 1978 and it's everywhere--and assured them that I am a lesbian, even so. My bus came, I went home and ate the donut.
Waiting for the #60 bus in Seattle. Two people approached me in a non-hostile way, a middle-aged woman and a younger man. "Would I like a donut?" she asked, indicating the pink bakery box. It seemed safe, so I nodded. What was under the lid? A 'long john', frosted white, with a row of colors on top.
