It’s January 19, 2021, well past noon, which means that we have less than 24 hours remaining in the terrible, terrible Trump Presidency.
I worked on my book list for a little while, but I won’t get through it today. I have a lot more to do with it than I thought. That last sentence could describe any number of ongoing tasks and projects in my life. Anyway, at my current pace, next year’s list will be shorter. I’m only on my second book of the year and it’ll be several days before I finish it. I think that we all need to see Trump safely out of the White House and on his way to Mar a Lago before we can relax enough to think about books and blogging. Or at least I do. It’s less than a day but it only takes a minute to press the nuclear button, right? I don’t even know how that works, actually; and I’m better off for that lack of knowledge. Ignorance = Bliss.
*****
So tomorrow, I’ll be back at work on the list, which I do hope to publish before the end of the month, even if “before the end of the month” means January 31, 2021 at 11:59 PM. Maybe I’ll have something to say about the Inauguration, too; or about the beginning of the new administration. Probably not, though. It’s enough that this one is ending. I don’t want to get greedy.
