No Bow Tie Tuesday

[fflo]

Home coughing today.  Didn't figure much point in tying something around my neck that wasn't designed to keep it/me warm.

Was going to flush the water heater but then forgot.  Oh well.  I only just found out that's something you're supposed to do, so after all these years I suppose a few days more won't hurt.  Fortunately that water heater isn't all that old.

Iran's government fired missiles at a place in Iraq the U.S. military has people (and stuff, presumably).  It's seen as the first act of Hard Revenge after the killing of that general.  There's a possible threat of a Trump "address to the nation" tonight.  How much chance there is that it'll just be hot air, I don't know.  On the TV some person was saying that maybe more Iraqis were hurt or killed than Americans, and so maybe Trump won't consider it as much of a big deal.  Grasping at straws through rooting for racism?

Time to me to put my feet up.  Been text sweeping for Bernie.

Manny loves my bad-lesbian fingernails.

Sure hope I'll be back at work tomorrow.  Here I'd gone in the past 2 Saturdays to try not to use to much leave, and poof! I've burned that much thrice over, and then some.

I send get well vibes your way!

From what I heard, I don't think there was any casaulities with that air strike although I've been hearing today there was a plane that got accidentally shot down. However, before I heard that, they say that Iran warned Iraq about the attack about six hours before it happened. I think this was Iran's way of showing their claws and fangs, but not actually want to go to war. I also saw an offical from Iran saying he doesn't have issues with the American people. Just Trump is the issue. But it seems that Trump isn't interesting in countering that attack since no one was killed.

I heard two instances of Iranian officials saying that same thing! It made me think how I wish our leaders would make that distinction. I wonder whether we might be more sympathetic to the plight of regular people in those far-away places if we'd been (for instance) bombed a lot because of things our government is doing.
