Sleepy, why not?

 I woke around 3:30 a.m. this morning and I couldn't get back to sleep. All this it is besides a little yawning and stuff haven't felt that bad today- - I felt a little sleepy that's for sure and there's days when I get better sleep I feel better but today wasn't bad. I think the biggest reason I couldn't sleep was that last night I realized I still had clothes in the dryer - - didn't I discuss this a little bit and last night's post? . Anyway I wanted to make sure I got up early and hustled down to the laundry and get my clothes back to the apartment . I hate it when the washer or dryer I want to use is being tied up by somebody who's not there . I was able to get the clothes and it didn't look like anybody had been in the room since I left it last night after I started my clothes on the second dry cycle . I did notice I wasn't able to interact as well with the folks at coffee that I usually do when I get better amounts of sleep but today wasn't that bad either. You seem to be a bit of a contention? I'm not sure what I would call it but not contention but I stifling quietness perhaps I think from the results of the last election. I know that for sure there are a couple of Trump people there but everybody was civilized nobody brought up the election at all I thought that was kind of sleepy. I think I'm ready to move on myself and not try to focus on the loss. My friend who is a big Trump supporter was acting very quiet as well during the coffee session. We talked amicably and kind of enjoyed each other's time but I don't think we just knew how to communicate regarding the results of the election and how they affect us. I was open however I would gladly visited with anybody to let them know how spooked I am regarding Mr Trump's next try it being presidential. And I didn't hear of anybody else bringing up the election either. I think if we're going to survive the next couple of months everybody's going to have to do exactly that forcibly open up channels of conversation and have those conversations and assess whatever the president's going to do. 


I had a conversation this evening with my old boss and friend from Blackfoot Idaho and a number of decades back and we talked in depth about not being part of a electoral backlash with the way that the election had gone especially in contrast to what happened during the first Trump election. It would be great if the whole thing just blew over and things went on their way but with election of trump along with losing either the house or the senate or both it's going to make a very very active couple of months politically speaking. I don't think we fear the Revolution and fighting in the streets as we had anticipated had the president lost but still there's a lot of stress bubbling out there and I don't really want to be part of it..

Your dwelling on the election sounds stupid and pathetic.
