Yesterday started very well and then ran headlong into a massive migraine. Next time I go to the ophthalmologist I'll have Dane drive me. And then I'll wear a blindfold on the drive home. Good gods, that was a bad scene. Lesson learned. But the good news is: my eyes are "perfect." That's a relief. :)
We'd already planned to have dinner with family, and well, this ended up with me attempting a political discussion during a migraine. The results were...mixed. LOL. But really, what can you say to someone whose every objection to a political candidate ends with "It's a cover up!"? Seriously? Trump bribed the leadership of no less than two states (Texas and Florida) in order to avoid prosecution for fraud (see Trump University) and nobody seems to give a shit[1]...but HRC, somehow, after multiple years' long investigations, manages to hide information about her wrong doings? Pfffffttt! Give me a damned break, people.

In other news, I finished reading I Am Princess X by Cherie Priest, and it was wonderful. Next, I started The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood. We'll see how that goes. I enjoyed the film. I suspect the novel will be equally good. After that, I'm hitting the Octavia Butler on my bookshelf because I'm way over due. That's three novels in a row by authors who happen to be women. Sadly, I don't know that I've ever done that before. Go me.

Meanwhile in another part of the forest... Democrats stage sit-in on House floor to force gun vote. It's about time, damn it. (See The True Cost of Gun Violence in America.)
