Todays Random Riles

My orange crayfish was eaten by my Jack Dempseys overnight.  When I peered in the tank this morning I saw half of him in the sea grass and the other half missing.  The aquarium folks said he’d be fine but they were wrong.  I kinda hate having put him in that position.  Yes I know it’s a -crayfish-.  Still. 
We are one world. We are all of  the human race. It could be such a Utopia for every single being.. we have the resources.   WHY.. can’t we get along. WHY is there senseless war after war, torture, poverty, homelessness, suffering… all avoidable.  And yet we’ll never rise above it, and I think… eventually destroy ourselves completely.  
Never get into a political -discussion- with family on FB and think it’s going to end well.  It won’t.  Also, never assume you know someone just because they are family.  Their true nature can astound you and it probably will.

Giving up sugar is a really really really hard thing to do.    Really. 

It snowed again this morning… not much, but the residual grey day hovers like a wet wool blanket.

The repair people are here fixing the refrigerator for the third time. It’s just a few years old, a sub zero.  Things oughta be made better, the way they used to be.  My grandmothers “ice box”  probably saw thirty or so years of service.  We pay much more for things now and get much less.   It ain’t right. 

I finally watched the Hunger Games and it’s sequel over the weekend.  I found it incredibly disturbing, twisted, highlighting the worst in human nature. Or should that read -government-?   Am I the only one who felt that way?  I don’t know… judging by it’s popularity, maybe so.

-just sayin.
