Well, I have been working my ass off this week trying to finish cleaning the sample for the next edition of the oldest IQ test in western History which I love bragging I get to work on. Hopefully I'll wrap up today and be able to look at the means and standarddeviations to see if we can collapse any age ranges (such as 14-15 years old since where intelligence is concerned, the ages are about the same).
Anyway, in local news, the snow is 90% with just a few mounds left. Feb is starting off with some record warm temps. Climate change is no joke.
Well, fuck! I wake up to the news that Dipshit STILL hasn't croaked.
ETA: Going to start drinking the champagne that I got months ago to celebrate Dipshit's passing. Maybe not having champagne on hand to celebrate will result in Satan FINALLY calling him home.
Last night while I was blow-drying my hair before we went for a few beers at the pub, I had this thought suddenly overtake all others in my head: ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐ข๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข โ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข๐ [๐๐๐๐๐ก] ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข. Now, Chris usually pays for both of us on our nights out and I generally don't need to have my card with me. But, I have said, should He Who Is Still Squatting In the White House happens to kick the ol' bucket while we're out, I'm buying a round for everyone. I even had a "vision" of one of the other regular patrons coming outside saying, "Guess what just hit the news" and me replying, "Don't fuck with me about this...!"
I may have jinxed the whole thing, though, by telling my husband about it. If it happens again, I'll keep my mouth shut and see what happens.
