Oct. 9

Orchids to

Bush’s Market for having awesome summer produce this year, and the employees for loading up two bales of straw and four bunches of fodder into the back of my truck.

Color Me Happy Salon for the beautiful work and all the fun, from all your clients.

Onions to

businesses that have a working company desk phone but will not answer it when customers call.

the gentlemen who drives his new red golf cart on Fifth Street like it’s legal now.

the mistakenly-elected official for wanting to jail a mayor and a governor that oppose his unlawful power grab.

the federal agents tossing gas canisters and firing nonlethal rounds to clergy and peaceful demonstrators outside ICE detention centers in Chicago.

the appointees of the elected official who manipulate the truth, evade and deflect questions and get aggressive, even when testifying under oath.

the political party that won’t budge because it does not care about health care insurance subsidies or how it affects your health.
