10:52 p.m.
By the end of yesterday, there were 11 people dead and at least a dozen wounded that I know of, in two separate shooting incidents at schools.
There is something seriously wrong going on in this country, and the people in charge of keeping us safe are too concerned with putting more money in their pockets to stand up and do something meaningful.
If I see one more post offering "thought and prayers" and nothing else, I may scream.
Today I saw a post from a guy who claims our 2nd amendment rights are promised first in the Bible.
Jeez. I read the whole Bible once. No one had a single gun. Whatever they armed themselves with--sticks and stones, spears, whatever--no one was fighting for their rights to keep them.
I am amazed at the rampant ignorance out there.
Look. I have said this repeatedly: no one wants your guns. We just want laws in place that will make access to them, storage of them, use of them more closely monitored and regulated. Like our cars. Like liquor. Responsibility and education is important.
I'll duck now. Swing and miss. I'm over it.

This is still free for 24 more hours.

I had to spend some time changing my passwords. Wish I was creative about thinking those up. Wow.

Today was sad movie day, I swear. And tear-jerkers must be accompanied by grilled cheese sandwiches. I think it's a law.
So, there I was, grabbing desserts, and my dad's cell phone rings. It's my cousin. But no one is there. "Hello, hello?" Nothing.
Then Dad says he can't call back, so I take the phone and realize the call is still connected. After several attempts to get the caller's attention, and only hearing weird noises coming through, I disconnect the call and call her back.
Butt dialed! So funny. She was using a weed whacker and somehow managed to place a call. So we had a nice little chat, confirmed that everyone is doing fine--Thank God!--and had a little laugh.
No problems. That's what I like to hear.

Now I am streaming Season 2 of "13 Reasons Why." I'm going to need chocolate before I go to bed. The world has become such an unfriendly place. It makes me want to home-school all the grandkids.
Oh, dang, I have no chocolate! Maybe I better turn this off!

I'm heading for my cozy bed now.
Really. I am.
Good night!
