I decided to listen to some tunes, trim my dog's paws, and generally just fuck around

for a few hours.

It is Christmas eve, after all. So I escaped from the world for a few hours. Relaxed. Bonded with my dog.

I come back, and the market is down 650 points and Trump is tweeting about "shut down money".

I've come to a conclusion.

None of this is fucking real.

Trump isn't real.

Trump is just a dream. A nightmare.

I will wake up to whatever my real life is.

Somebody sane will be president.

Trump never existed.

I can relax for real now.

I love it when you discover while dreaming that it is only a dream.

Whew.

1. A dream I think a lot of us wish for...take care! nt

2. I'd like to think I slipped into an alternate universe and someone will throw me a safety rope soon.

But, damn, hurry it up!

3. No doggie pics?

5. Someday, but not now lol

The fur on his paws was hampering his ability to walk because the snow would clump up on his pads and between his toes. So I had to do a quick grooming job with scissors. I gave him a bad, but functional haircut. Not my finest effort.

6. You remind me of a line from Patton Oswalt's Netflix special...

(Special aired in 2017, about a year after his wife had died suddenly.)

“Beyond my wife passing away, which is horrible, there’s also really horrific evidence that I might be dead and imagining this hell, based on what the (expletive) is going on around me right now in the world,” he says. “If my mind were to create a hellscape, it would kind of look like this.”
