I don’t have much pity for Politicians but there’s a job I’d really hate to be doing right now;

A decision on a new US ambassador is likely to be taken within days, with David Miliband, Peter Mandelson and Cathy Ashton all on the shortlist, the Guardian understands.

@process can you imagine being a woman & having to be civil to a raper of women?

kamala had to do it for 5 minutes. this would have to be 4 yrs.

@singlemaltgirl nope, I’m not cut out to be a politician, don’t suffer fools gladly. No matter “their station”

@singlemaltgirl I get diplomacy but it’s craven. The west will treat this new administration with respect, because America.

@singlemaltgirl it’s all I can think about, this shit is spending too much time in my brain. I guess in a way it’s useful because you never know, maybe I’m over reacting and there’ll be relief when is not *that* bad.

I don’t think that’s the case though.

@singlemaltgirl it’s amazing!! Haven’t had much of a chance yet to do anything, be spending the weekend being all geeky installing my apps and all.

Have to get daughter up to an audition for a musical today then take a nice long walk along the river first. Clear the head. Hope you have nice things planned

@process well, i hope you enjoy geeking out on your new tech!

what's she auditioning for?

i'm hoping to go for a walk in the daytime. my first since sept. btw the craziness of work & my back injury, i haven't really gone for a walk. so i can't push it. but i am excited to be able to do one, again. we'll see how it goes. got my ipod all charged up.

then lots of work this weekend for an event next week.

@singlemaltgirl oof, hope your OK now, didn’t know you’d hurt your back. Can’t beat a nice dander outdoors.

It’s a youth group doing a musical of Alice in Wonderland next year. She just loves performing but hasn’t been in anything so I’m really hoping she gets a part. Good for the confidence and all. The pandemic really made her draw into herself.

@process oh, i found a brilliant acupuncturist locally & he's done wonders. so i'm looking forward to a walk. finally.

that's awesome that's she's willing to try. the pandemic has caused a lot of kids to draw into themselves. so lovely that she's taking this leap. 🤞🏾 she gets a part.

does she like to sing? or more the drama part?

@singlemaltgirl fantastic, they did wonders for my dicky neck.

She loves all of it. She goes to a drama group now and singing lessons once a week. Really trying to encourage it.
