A Birthday Rant

   I'm not sure how our country is allowed Donald Trump to be so close to   he White House. He has truly   hown his true colors.. They called Hillary Clinton a liar but trumps whole candidacy is based  on a lie.
immigration has decreased to the point it's at zero net, insurance rates went    mostly for people in states where Republican governors failed to expand Medicaid!  Insurance rates have ALWAYS gone up, as it's private industry  Donald   rump's entire business   s based upon his name.  Trump is unqualified. His supporters are unreasonable, illogical, gullible, uninformed, and   ypocritical- otherwise, they wouldn't give him a walk for being a despicable  racist, misogynist, serial   iar. So pardon me for pointing out that your judgement is in question if you support that  jackass.  I don't give a line cook "a chance" to do brain surgery.   I hope to God the country doesn't vote the completely incapable candidate to b e president of the United States. It'll be a national  humiliation in my opinion. And I will be a sad way to end my birthday week. 
Look at these maps shows that the race has tightened a lot since this map was put up in early October.
 

As I sit here in the convention I'm going to put up one more map from the 538 blog.

Wednesday, November 2: 2nd Day of SEPTA Strike

 Good morning everyone. Today is November 2. It is the 2nd day of the SEPTA strike and there are 6 days left until the election. I can just walk really easy for 15 blocks.No I don't own a car. There's   3 days left of my birthday. YES!!

I got a ride so I only had to walk 2 miles to downtown and then someone from work pick me up tonight I'm staying in West Philly with a friend so if I need one I can always do a car rental, a car share or Uber.Well I got my ride and was on time. I arrived around 8:15 AM but signed in for an 830 to 430 shift today. The day went really slow and I worked really slow instead of being rush rush rush. It was different 

but it wasn't bad. None of my clients came in and disposed of  some alerts and answer a few phone calls. I took a lunchtime walk and work like

any othe caseworker and took my brakes and left 
on time at 4:30 PM. My workmate dropped  me off at 23rd and Chestnut on her way back home in South Philly. Well I stopped in the  Coffee Joe  and; found that there is a step meeting at 6:30 so I can just chill out here for  a while and catch up on my blogging. It's a beautiful warm day outside but I'm sitting inside because it's I'm actually dressed too warm for how mild it is outside.

; well it is now 6:28 PM I'll have to catch up on these blogs later.  he race is getting tighter as we creep towards  Election  Day. Hillary Clinton is going negative since the race is tightening due to the Anthony Weiner emails. It's getting scary or it has been. Well there   was no seven 6:30 PM meeting so I hung out with these folks for about 20   inutes and then I headed on out towards West Philly. I had to go pretty  bad so I went to an old stomping ground and they still remember me from five years ago oh God!!

Tuesday, November 1: Day one of the SEPTA Strike

 Happy November everybody. And I did manage to get up at a decent hour so I could possibly  make it to the meeting and get to work. Yes of course we have another SEPTA strike  just like we did in 2009. Well I walked to the meeting and while I was walking to work, I checked how much Uber wants to price gouge me. Well, from 30th St.  to 58th and market! 
Well I walked to the meeting and I even walked straight to work. I checked out Uber to see how much it cost from 30th St. to 58th St. and it was between $45 and $56 one-way. Now that's what I call price gouging!!It's pretty brisk out here but I did dress warm enough fortunately. I  walked up Walnut Street. I did think about having another cup of coffee because it was pretty frosty. You know it's going to be bad when they can't even agree on how much the bathroom breaks are going to be for the employees. It's too bad assholes rule the world. It is nice weather. With the transportation system on strike I must've walked about 8 miles this morning before work. Tomorrow I get a ride in but I have to walk about another 
 2 miles to be picked up. None of my clients showed up except for 1 out of the 8 people I scheduled. I have to adjust my scheduling assuming no one will show up or do their work programs until SEPTA strike ends. Hopefully in a week or less. I have 2 appointments
downtown. I'm taking a quick coffee break in between. I got a ride downtown which was really fortunate. I went into elixir café and mellowed out for a  
moment and had a decaf Americano. It was quite tasty I must say. Well the first appointment it was just a med check it wasn't too bad at all. I did wait an hour but I dozed off while  
waiting. Second one got pretty intense but I thought it was pretty 
positive though. I do have to fight off my harsh judgment of  
myself that creeps up like socialism. 
 After my apointmants  I walked home through the model traffic. I got home fairly early because my appointments were really early. think I'll just walk home and take a shower.
