Ol' Fashioned Crandall Dining on Mount Pleasant, A Day of Writing, a Variation on Beef-on-Weck, and Deep Disgust for the Insanity of Our Truth

I simply look for a way to turn my brain onto another's thinking so Women's Volleyball, followed by Men's and Women's Basketball, followed by college baseball/softball, and Little League World Series usually does the job. There are nights, however, when you can't get a sport as distraction and you find yourself watching a 4-part series on Epstein and what he was able to built through perversion, wealth, status, and mental/physical abuse and you have to ask yourself, "What the actual @#$@?" I have to sit back and process all this, knowing the public has only received a shadow of the entire truth.

I am thankful, however, that a good-ol' fashion night of popcorn sustained me through the first two episodes. Yesterday, I had roast beef grinder with aus ju sauce from Lassie's. My stomach is still unsettled...especially knowing this occurred in my life time, protected, and infuriatingly ignored as more and more knew what was occurring, not only with political perverts in the U.S., but pedophiles around the world. It doesn't sit well with my Pollyanna, optimism that human beings are generally good. Not these folks. They are sick, and represent the worst of us. 

I enjoyed a day of sitting on my porch and writing, although I was sure I was going to get to my office on campus and accomplish another task needing to be done. I got into the grind, so never left my house. Well, I didn't leave my house until I walked Karal and then went to pick up Lassie's before heading to Pam's for more Epstein Island. This documentary, the Cornell incidences, and the reality that comes with being a K-12 educator who listens in their care, has my blood pressure a little too high. I know me. I have to find a way to bring good to such disgust. 

It's Halloween, and being a Saturday with good weather, I know my house will be ransacked. I am prepared with books and treats, but I'm not sure I want to be outside with 50-degree temperatures. Here's hoping of a safe, uneventful evening for all.
