The Invisible Woman Chronicles

 Well it was more like a tough night on the emotions.  The day went just fine.  It was the night when you think you can relax and you see what's happening in the news. You don't even have to turn on the news.  You can just take a peek at Threads and see what's happening. I'm so sick of the 2020 election lying.  Now two good senators from Georgia are going to be called illegitimate.  Sigh.  I think that just broke me.  When does this stop? I remember that election and getting excited that there was a possibility that Georgia could go to these two really decent humans.  My mom had left me a note that Jon Ossoff's race wasn't called yet but was leaning towards him.  Then we had January 6th to take it away. The first time I ever text banked was for Raphael Warnock's re-election.  I was so excited when they called the race for him.   I'm just tired of lying being acceptable.  It got to me last night.  They flood the z...

 My mom was trying to get something out from the passenger seat this weekend.  She said it felt like I dropped a bottle of lotion and she couldn't get it out.  She could see it. I didn't think anything of it until yesterday. I wondered what it was so when I pulled into the parking lot at Walmart, I walked around to the side of the car and tried to see what it was. It was my Airpods.  I'll be damned.  I thought I lost them in the parking lot at West Allis Memorial three months ago.  I was convinced someone had them and I was just plain out of luck.   They work.  I was worried if I charged them, it might not work being that it sat in my car for three months. I feel like a diva for complaining that I lost them.  I had them for four years and I worried that maybe I'd lose them.  I thought well.  I had four years.  Maybe I can get another pair.  I have alternatives but they weren't the same. It was a big deal.  I was ...

Sometimes the internet isn't all bad.  I'm not referring to the news about Lindsay Graham.  That?  I'm surprised.  This is more about social media, I guess. I have one classmate who generally makes me laugh unexpectedly at his posts.  He's in the military and in southern California.  His wife was a former CSI agent?  I'm not sure but they're both wicked smart.  He seems to have quite the life and is probably one of the nicest classmates I've had.  Yesterday, he got to take a tour of the Brady Bunch house and it was just a good laugh to see him standing on those stairs where all the kids posed at the opening of the show.    It wasn't his post that caught my attention though.  It was the person that commented that caught my attention.   Jared Shue.  I'm going with that alias.  I hadn't heard that name in years.  I clicked on his page to see what he was up to and I was disgusted.  He's a MAGA lover an...

 On the day that Stephen Colbert's show ended, I made a post on Facebook with a picture of Letterman and Colbert.  I rarely post on Facebook and I didn't realize that I should have made my settings private. I know a few of my classmates were Letterman fans and anyone who is still a social media friend is not a fan of the current administration.   I did it as kind of a therapy thing. I wish I would have realized that I made it public.  I put up a picture of Letterman and Colbert from the top of the Ed Sullivan theatre after they pitched office furniture off of it as the show was ending. This was what my post said: As a lonely kid, I would spend my summers staying up late to watch David Letterman's show.  Sometimes I would do it during school nights.  That explains the black circles under my eyes since the age of 17.  And I wasn't sure about Stephen Colbert since I didn't watch The Colbert Report.  Letterman taught me how to be a smart ass grow...

Looks like I'll be back at the Shorewood post office this morning.  I can't believe I got to go over to the east side to find stupid post card stamps.  Yeah.  That officially makes me sound like a nerd.  I went to the Bay View post office yesterday morning to see if I could find them.  They've been my second go to post office and nope.  They sold out. I suspect because the prices are going up as of Sunday that people stocked up.  Am I the only nerd writing postcards to voters?  Maybe not. It's fine. I thought I could check it off my to do list.  That was probably the only thing on my to do list other than to stock up food for the queen.  I'll be there this morning after I get my walk in.  My mom had put another mirror in the bathroom to help her see.  I was happy to see she took it out yesterday morning. I know with her eyesight, she needs all the help she can get.  She said that she saw her nose and wondered why it was so...

I've been a little sad since the Thinker left last week.  I haven't really had anyone to talk to during the day even though I'm probably more productive in some respect.  I did get help in catching up which was great. I hate that I have a horrible time making friends.  It's even worse at my age now. I know I have Corinne but she's also 4 hours away and has a way better life now that she has her person.   Shyness is my enemy and being vulnerable has made me prey for horrible people in my life.  You get to the point where you ask, What's the point?  Everyone is a user.   I hear, Well you need to ask people if you want to get together.  I HAVE!  MILLIONS OF TIMES!  How many times do I need to ask?  I would ask Cassie if she wanted to meet for Starbucks when I would be downtown for an appointment.  She was only blocks away and I wouldn't hear from her until after my appointment that she was busy.  There have been ple...
