We're stepping off into a new world today
From here, if the weather is any indication of the future, it doesn't look good. It's cold, foggy, drizzle, hard to see which direction things are going.
Somehow, today I feel completely impotent, unable to stop this thing hurtling at me, and even though I've braced myself for impact I'm afraid of being bowled over, and swept aside.

I just get the bad feeling that there isn't a whole hell of a lot we can do to stop this, and we're going to be taking some big bad lumps in the days ahead.

To say I'm scared isn't strong enough, I hope we all get through this safely, but, I'm not very optimistic.

1. Well all you can do is all you can do
Best to just do what you can and then take your enjoyment where you find it.

I have more cliches if anybody needs them.

2. I suppose
you could pray for help, but keep in mind that God loves Republicans and hates Democrats, (sarcasm)

3. I gave up praying a long time ago
We're entirely on our own here. I firmly believe in karma, and we've built some bad, bad karma.
